Whoa.
So we were getting all ready for Brant to fly off to Maui this Friday, New Years Eve. We had to-do items listed out in order of importance for each day, all culminating in a dinner with family and friends Thursday night. He would fly out Friday morning.
Hahahahahahahhahahhahahahaha.
Yeah. Well.
He found out today that the shipping yard where his car is currently being stored will not be open on Friday. Nor will they be open the following Monday. Something about it being New Years Eve and then Monday being a 'recovery' day. :) Why we didn't think of this when we booked the car shipping and his airline ticket, I don't know!
So basically, unless he (or someone he authorized) picked his car up before 4 on Thursday, he wouldn't be able to pick it up until the following Tuesday. And would be charged a storage fee for each day. And would have to pay for a rental car to get around, since there's not a whole lot of public transportation options on the island. Needless to say, that adds up to quite a bit of money.
Turns out the cheaper option was to change his airline ticket. So we did. And now he leaves 6:50am Wednesday morning. As in, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW.
He is not packed.
(That was on the list for Wednesday night!!)
The family and friends he was going to say goodbye to in person over the next couple of days, will now have to settle for a phone call.
The pile of junk sitting next to our house will have to be taken to the dump by someone else (me?!?).
Everything that was going to be fit into the next 3 days will now be fit into 1.
Many things probably just won't get done.
It is crazy and awesome and of course it will all be just fine.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I have to go start packing. :)
