Well, there is that.

.

Didn't measure for the dog cage?  Nope.  Measured the dog.  Chose "roomy" based on that.  Didn't want her ears touching the top of the cage.  So had to take the length required.  Didn't measure the room, or doors.

No, it won't, constructed, fit through the doors.  So, has to be built in her room.  BUT,  only after completely reorganizing her room.  Moving her bed, bed stand, and one of her dressers.  Plus rearranging a third of her room, otherwise, in general.

She tried to tell me to send it back.  I told her it would cost (HER) fifty dollars or more.  Well, on second thought?  Not so much.  Though too, the width would remain, even on smaller ones.  The length would only be four to six inches shorter on the next units down, and her ears would hit the top of the cage when she stands on both the next sizes down).  Almost same, same, but alot more cramped height-wise.  Plus, she is still growing.

I'll have to get the appliance dolly, to bring the package in.  It is very heavy.  I could brute force it.  But things can go very wrong doing that.  And, after last night, I'm not in the mood to push muscles, bones, or physics.  So, yes, the dolly.

Mom's pissed.  I won't accept her crap on this.  I didn't want the dog, allowed it.  The prices are the costs.  Goes with having a dog.  Hoping the kennel won't be required, so can move it somewhere easier for when we are out, or such.  But... for now, until she proves out, it is what it is.

Hopefully, taking it half apart will allow it to be moved.  No guarantees or promises on that.  But it is what it is.

Wow is mother in a nasty, pushy, bad mood today.  Nothing is good enough.  Doesn't like this, or that.  Wants this, that, and a bunch of other things done.  I finally just left.

Look, if you are sore, tired, frustrated?  Take some time off.  Don't keep digging through to misery.  I won't tolerate your misery.  If you have too many things on your list for you and me to complete, too many questions we can't answer, and too many wants and (needs) for us to solve?  You'll end up on your own.

She suggested she will have someone pick her up.  Okay.  If she can arrange it, I won't even think of interferring.  I don't think anyone would.  But, that isn't my decision.  Then I could sell and move.  If I am not good enough, I guarantee no one else will be.

Still, she has gotten healthier here.  Better food, more walking, working?  It has much improved her.  Perhaps she could find a little place to live.  Not... in Utah.  Rents are way too high, here.  But, back in Iowa.  Friends or relatives who have a place.  She has a running start, at such, anyway.  Not for me to say.  But, living on her income would be brutal.  She has no clue how much I have spent on her.  My life would become a thousand times easier, cheaper, and I could go try to find a wife.

If she wants to go, I'm good with it.  Be careful with threats.  For some they just might become promises, expected to be kept.
