Big Day... boxes and boxes and more...

It is 11:30 PM.  I have homework to do and looks like I might be working well into the morning.  Being a widow and with no family close, many times I am left on my own to load cars for travel, make plans, etc.  And it is no different for this change, either.

Today started with Sheila coming to house sit while I did some last minute running around.  We chatted and then I gethered the dogs up to take them to Goodspice Kennel for 4 days of day camp.  It keeps them out from under foot and protects them from being stressed or getting loose out an open door.

Then I headed to see Dr. Cuneo for a final checkup and gather prescriptions to take to Alaska.  She pronounced me in good health and gave me a bear hug.  We had really bonded and I will miss having her for my doctor.

Then, I headed to Exton to meet with the Russela and have settlement on my house.  It was quick and quite painless as it was a completely cash deal so sign her and then there and I left with a check which I took directly to the bank before heading home.

Sheila had gone to get Sadie from the school buss and I was met by a large.... large white moving van in front of the house.  Inside were two men and one woman, and they were madly packing anything that was loose into boxes.  It was a light day, according to the driver, but here are picture of boxes in the dining room and sewing room.  They are returning tomorrow with an extra person in the hopes of finishing all of the packing and loading all of it and hitting the road on their way to Alaska.






It is humbling seeing all of your things reduced to a bunch of boxes.

My homework was to get the stuff going in the car out of their way. break down the two desk top computers so they can be boxed and prepare the Happy embroidery machine for it's box.  (I still have not done that, but have reviewed the videos and instruction so I should have it completed.  I will be up late tonight.  But after this, all I have to do is drive 4100 miles to my new home.
