Good for you Jam :) Having a goal in life is very important. You have come a long way and will make a wonderful parront :)

A payment plan is a great idea as you can send the money to the breeder and then its not burning a hole in your pocket :)

Thanks TB :)
Yes i agree, I have gotten a reply from her and she told me to tell m2mm for the great reference.
Than i emailed her telling her what i was doing, (saving up) and that if i can start sending her some money, to pay off one so its already payed for that would be awesome you know ?
she said her CAG's go back in the nest in spring... so its not a bad idea to start sending money.
And it keeps me from temptation lol

So, i have a large Macaw Cage with appropriate sizing i will be purchasing from my friend Sylvia, (the one that i was looking at for Cinder,but we decided the spacing was to large...but this one is a playtop)
It will be costing me $300, I think its a pretty good deal :)

And i just finished messaging Jane, i answered the little questionaire she requires, hopefully i did good, which i was 100% truthful, i dont see the benefits of lying.

I wont be working this weekend, but i will probably next weekend, its to cold apparently (which i agree lol, to strong winds out today)

Jane also told me she doesn't take deposits until she has babies, so i decided i will have to hide my bank card from myself lol ! and put it in real tight security, i will ask the bank to only let me put deposits in if they can. I only have a Chequing bank account

you could open a savings account with ING Direct. they don't have bank machines, so the only way to get money out is to request it online and have it sent to your normal bank account. It takes about 3-5 days for the transaction so you will have to think twice about taking money out of the account. You can put have them take as little as 5 bucks per week from your chequing account up to any amount you feel comfortable with.

We have an ING account. That's where I keep my "emergency vet fund." It's really very convenient and easy enough to access, but the delay keeps us from using the funds willy-nilly. :P
