So after a very hectic 4-5 days of organizing and just getting things done, we have arrived at travel day. I'm sitting sipping my tea at the moment with my self tanner drying. Still need to go over to work to drop some things off and we are not finished packing. WHY is packing such an ordeal? I assigned DD to do it yet it's taken far too much time. Part of the problem being that I cheap'd out and bought the airfare that does not include carry on bags. Huge mistake that I will never do again. When I did check in last night I upgraded seats to extended comfort, to the tune of $148, just to get the carry on bag. However, we are only bringing one because I only get 2 free checked bags coming home. So checking one going south and will have to check the carry on as a second coming home. Rethinking it all now, I should have just paid for a second checked bag 
Anyhow...live and learn.
I realized that I never came back to update the AM booking saga. Were we last left off I had received a message saying to copy down the reservation number and I would get me info within 24hrs. I checked my mail probably every 15 minutes all day long and never got anything. So after work I called and sat on hold for 70 minutes. Got a fantastic person who goes though things and says there is no booking. It didn't go through. Yikes! So I then ask about canceling the WJ booking, I'm still within the 24hrs, so that I can rebook as a round trip which would now be the better option miles wise. The AC flight that I wanted had gone up 1400 miles. She checks and says yes but then offers to wait on the line while I look at what I want to book...so that I don't have to call back and be on hold again. I would have loved that but I was driving on the highway at that time. So I hang up and the second I get to my destination I try booking AC again and this time it goes through, no problem and I got all the documents in my email within a minute or two. I think the grand total on miles for both legs of the trip was close to 10K.
