A letter from my mom

Dear Son, I'm writing this slow cause I know you can't read fast.  We don't
live where we did when you first left.  Your Dad read in thepaper that most
accidents happen within 20 miles of home, sowe moved.  I won't be able to 
send you the address as the last family here took the numbers with them for
their next house, so they wouldn't have to change their address. This place 
has a washing machine.  The first day I put four shirts in, pulled the 
chain, and I haven't seen 'em since.  Itonly rained twice this week, three 
days the first time and four days this time. The coat you wanted me to send 
you, your Aunt Sue said it would be a little too heavy to send in the mail 
with the heavy buttons, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets.  We 
got a bill from the funeral home, said if we didn't make the last payment on
Grandma's funeral, up she comes. About your sister, she had a baby this 
morning.  I haven't found out whether it's a girl or a boy, so I don't know 
if you are an Aunt or an Uncle. Three of your friends went off the bridge in
a pick-up.  One was driving, the other two were in the back.  The driver got
out when he rolled down the window and swam to safety.  The other two didn't
make it, they couldn't get the tail gate down.  Not much more news this 
time, write soon.                                                Love, Mom

P.S. Was going to send you money, but the envelope was already sealed.
