Its only 10am and I feel like I've had a whole day. It was supposed to be relatively simple this morning. Zach and Christina had to catch the bus at around 7:30am and Jax had to be at the airport by 7:30am for his flight to NL. D was planning to drop them at the bus, Jax at the airport and on to work. Didn't go as smooth.
I get a call at around 8am with D telling me they are not recommending Jax fly from T.O to NL b/c the cargo area of that plane is not heated and it was going to be like -7 degrees for a 3 hour flight... too cold.
To get Jax on a flight home to NL I had minimal options in the first place b/c they only have limited flights that are heated enough this time of year and after Dec 15th there is a block-out for flying any pet's in cargo. So please, tell me why I had this issue this morning. Who is the person that booked him on a flight in December that wasn't heated.
So anyway, D is dealing with them trying to find alternate arrangements, i'm on the phone trying to get somewhere with it and then all of a sudden they say "oh, its not as cold in TO now. He should be okay. But if you had a sweater or something for him it would be even better".
D has to get to work, Ella's crying b/c she's just realized that her puppy is gone and she misses him, she has school at 9am, they haven't had breakfast but we rush out the door to drive 20min. to the airport to bring Jax his sweater. And Ella got to say good-bye.
In the end the guy there was nice about it all and gave Jax his flight half price, lol, and had Jax sitting next to him with a bowl of water waiting for us.
Ella arrives at school only a half hour late but with no lunch, oops.
The funny thing about all this, is that when I got up this morning I was telling Darryl that for the last hour or so I was stressing in my sleep about Jax being too cold on the plane today. I hadn't thought about it at all in the day's leading up to him leaving but that was what was on my mind in the wee hours this morning. A little foreshadowing to the mornings events I guess. Poor puppy, I hope he's okay.
