Huskerfan, I didn't say everything- but I will now.
First- in our first conversations I tried to find a place for them to stay for a night- I was unable to- I ONLY KNEW 2 PEOPLE IN TOWN. Yes, I DIDN'T come to see the dogs when I was in town for all of 2 days because I was looking for housing and then the job bomb dropped. I had no time to visit. I did talk to you while I was here. I moved here on the 1st after unloading a truck all damn day- and you're right, with boxes to the ceiling and barely able to move I decided to have a drink after working for a week solid on this move AND I WAS A GUEST IN SOMEONE ELSE'S HOME. You then emailed me and called and said you'd be glad to hold them for a few more days till I was ready- I was grateful- I didn't think they sHould come home to a house of boxes. WHEN I EMAILED YOU I SAID I WAS W/O INTERNET FOR A WEEK AND TO PLEASE PLEASE CALL ME ASAP- YOU RESPONDED WITH AN EMAIL WITH YOUR NUMBERS THAT i DIDN'T GET FOR ANOTWER WEEK. I can repost if if you'd like to claim I am still lying. Go re-read it. Don't you dare call me a liar because I am NOT.
"I still don't have your number and would like to get ahold of you. I will be w/o internet access for probably another week. Let me know! "
I understand that you are attached to these dogs, and that's fine, I'm sure if I had them for an extended period of time I would want to keep them as well- but don't make it out like I am unfit to take dogs- because you offered to hold them for longer. I told you I could have taken them when I got here- and you said it "really wasn't a problem" and that "you didn't mind." So please, please, don't sully my name because you decided to keep the dogs. Not fair. I didn't go back on my promise AT ALL. As a matter of fact we had set a time for me to come and get them and you changed your mind less than 2 hours prior to pick-up.
Seriously- you called once sobbing about how you much you loved them and were shaken up aout their impending departure adn then the next day you sat there naming all the bad things about the dogs trying to get me to give them to you said that this could be my "out." You could have just said - I'd like to keep them, sorry. Instead, you're doing exactly what these board people are doing and claiming I'm not ready for dogs when you have no idea and you just wanted an excuse to keep them. Remember- I finishing installing the doggie door when you called and cancelled on me.
