| Empty Aussie Shelves |
The moving company called around 8
a.m. to confirm our scheduled move for today. Doc and I shifted a few things at this end and then headed
over to the Pomona house. Of
course Doc stopped for coffee before getting on the freeway. I collected two pennies in the parking
lot. (Coins #1&2).

| Last BIG Move |
The moving truck arrived at 9:15
and by 9:40 we began loading. The
movers packaged and transported the furniture, while Doc and I dealt with the
contents and wall décor. On one
trip to the van, Doc found a penny on the sidewalk! (Coin #3).
When we arrived at the Penny
Palace, I think it took more time to assemble the furniture than to bring it in
the house. By 12:15 the movers were leaving and Doc and I were ready to
collapse. We unpacked a few
things, then at 2 p.m. Doc headed off to school. I kept unpacking and dealing with mail, RSVPs, rental
issues, etc.
At 4:15 the upholsterer
called. I was elated, yet dreading
the thought of more lifting. It
took me 40 minutes to carry eight chairs out of the house and then load them
into Pippy and tie them down. My body was complaining.

| Kitchen Chairs Ready to go Home |
Arrived at the upholstery shop at
5:15. The coffee bar stools and
breakfast nook chairs look great.
There was stop-and-go traffic on the freeway, so it took until 6:10 to
get home. I offloaded the 7
chairs. My body was resisting the
overtime work. I fed the dogs and was back on the freeway by 6:45.
My mom had offered to make dinner
for us tonight! She had too much
food in her fridge and it was going to spoil. So from 7:30 - 8:00 Doc and I were treated to a wonderful
outdoor dinner.
At 8:00 p.m. we had an appointment
at the Pomona house to meet someone who wanted to buy the washer and
dryer. We waited for an hour, but
the person never showed. Doc and I
spent the time packing the contents of the Australian Room. By the time we left
at 9 p.m., that room was cleared.
One more room down, only 4-5 zones remaining.
Total: 3 Pennies
