I am sorry to hear about that.. I agree with you, the best option seems to be the lady who is breading close to where you live. I know it seems like a lot of money. Maybe she would negociate with you on the price. I think that having to wait longer will only make you appreciate her more. Even if you do have to pay that much more, you just have more time to save up. And if you want her bad enough, you can save up. That is how I got Gizmo, I started putting back my money a little at a time, before I knew it, I was done. Good Luck! Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you.
