Jeremy took Annah to Greenville today to move the rest of her things out of her dorm room.  They were able to get most when he rushed down to get her in March, but there were still a few of the larger items, like her rug, microwave, rolling cart, mattress topper, etc. 

Once the university was able to set the protocol for COVID-19 move-out, she had to request an appointment. She didn't feel there was time last week during finals, so today was her assigned day.  She was given a 3 hour window between noon-3pm. Only one person was allowed to go with her on campus. Only one person per floor of the dorm could move out at a time. Traffic into and out of the dorm was one-way...up one flight of stairs (She lived on the 3rd floor.) and down another flight. Face masks were required to enter the building.

Annah's roommate Tori had moved out last week, and left this on her whiteboard along with a letter and a gift. Annah had to call her once she had emptied and cleaned the room to "check out," since Tori was also her R.A. 

She had to lock her room key and her mailbox key in the room, rather than turning them in to a Resident Director.  Jeremy said they didn't see anyone else in or out of the building while they were there. What an odd feeling. 

 Jeremy took Annah to Doc's house to turn in her choir folders and music, and she was able to visit with him (from 6 feet away).  Jeremy sent me this picture he took from the car, and I just cried. We love this man, and are so thankful Annah had daily influence and encouragement from him throughout this year.  He was one of the biggest reasons she went to GU, one of the biggest helps in getting her there, and he encouraged her even today. 

That was definitely the best last stop/encounter Annah could have had in leaving Greenville.

When she got home, she and Sylvia made room for all of the rest of her dorm room stuff, and she put up her little message board in their room.
