Good morning, Love. I hope you weren't up too late doing paperwork. I assume that's a never-ending feat though.

I have several bruises myself, thank you very much. You're not the only one with battle wounds. I do have to admit, I'm not nearly as sore today. I took a long hot bath last night on a whim. It was heavenly. I feel almost human today. I hope your back is feeling better. There also seem to be less bugs today, it's shaping up to be a much better day than yesterday.

I know you'll be busy. I would just as soon you stay focused rather than write, the faster it's over the better. I know worrying is typically your job, but I fear I'll have to take over while you're gone. I hope today is much less exciting than it could be.
