Sparx was set to come home today for the birth of his first baby, scheduled 1/17.
It went round and round, and he tried to gt a MAC flight to Seattle, and it didn't work out. His in-laws pulled together the money for Seattle to FL. Then, before Christmas, I got with the family, and came up with another chunk of change to get the boy a commercial flight from Korea to JAX. Me, my sister, my former sister-in-law, Sparx's brother and dad. I know my sister and I got the money to the FIL so he could buy a ticket.
Meanwhile, FIL had already bought the ticket. All was well, just waiting on the money. But somewhere between then and now, FIL decided he wasn't getting the money fast enough. So he changed the ticket back to only Seattle to FL. No one said a damned thing to us.
And, there were still no MAC flights. He is #34 on the list of 1-3 spaces per day.
AND NO ONE SAID A DAMN THING TO US ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until today, the day Sparx is due to arrive.
FIL thinks we are rich. I said I was a consultant to him. Yeah, right. I can't afford season tickets to the Jaguars, nor can I afford weekly golf games.
And, can't really afford the $1800 ticket by myself, either. Sparx is into us for some significant money already. So while I "as mommy" want to buy him a ticket, and rescue the situation, I "as responsible parent" can't justify rescuing him yet again.
AAARRRRGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!
