Am I in the right with this?
I operate a small business where I officiate weddings. I as of recently received a call for a booking for this weekend, the 17th on September 25th. I immediately mailed out the contract and request for retainer fee. I did not receive it within a week, so I called her to confirm that she was going to mail the contract and the fee, advising I needed it to set her date in stone. Another week went by, and nothing. The customer wants a full blown consultation, and custom wedding writing ceremony. It would be different if I didn't work a full time job and do this on the side. I would have had three days to have the consultation, do research, custom write the ceremony, approve the drafts then go over the details of the ceremony with the customer. Time has run out for this especially when the drafts have to be mailed because I do not have her email. So, as of sunday, I sent her a letter stating i cannot perform the custom services on short notice being that I have not received the contract or the retainer fee as of yet, and gave a time line of the communications that we have had. Today, she called, and wanted to drop off all the money for the ceremony. Can I be sued for damages by sending her the letter stating I cannot perform the services on such short notice? I even have a get out clause on my contract stating that I can cancel with "ample time". What is your opinion on the situation.

1 AnswerSearch Engine Optimization1 decade agoRottweiler jumping issue, getting frustrated?
I have a one year old Rottweiler, hes a smart dog, and he is so loving, but he jumps so bad!! He sits, but when he gets up from sitting he jumps all over you. When he comes in the house from outside, he jumps all over you, and when he sees you come home, he jumps all over you. He jumps all over you while playing too. I have tried water, ignoring him and turning away, threatening him with a newspaper/magazine. I have pushed him down and made him sit, and he sits but he jumps back up on you. I have even laid him down and tried calming him down, but he gets back up and jumps on me. Its frustrating me, I don't know what else to try. Any tips?
8 AnswersDogs1 decade agoI think i am about to be engaged!?
Hi All! I have this feeling that my boyfriend is going to ask me to marry him very very soon. What I was wondering, for all those happily married women, or men, how did you know he was going to ask you? Did he give any signs, did he act wierd or fidgety that day?? How did he propose to you?
I'm so excited, I know he has the ring, I helped pick it out, and I know he will propose soon, but I dont know exactly when, he does things on his own timeline. Tell me about your experiences.
6 AnswersWeddings1 decade agoPutting some more passion/lust into our relationshp, how?
Lately, my boyfriend and I of almost two years have been in a complacent slump. I am very attracted to him, but he just doesn't seem to give me a lick of attention when it comes to intimacy. We have love, and commitment, but nothing else. There is no passion between us, and its driving me crazy. I ask him about it, about what i can do to get his attention, to help him want me, and he doesn't know. I gave him some ideas, such as being a bit more spontaneous, having a "real" date where we dress up a bit and do out of the norm kinda things, and he agrees. But what kills me is that he told me last night that he misses the old "Me", not this plain jane vanilla me whos not all that exciting. I dont know what i can do to be more exciting to him, he just wont tell me. (or doesnt know) What is something that i can do to knock his socks off and get his attention, to not be so vanilla?
1 AnswerSingles & Dating1 decade agoMy scotties?
I have two wheaten scottish terriers, male and female, both 12 weeks old. They are very handsome dogs, and i named them Ozzy and Petunia. But what my problem is, Ozzy is soooo shy. She does not like to have people touch him much. He runs when you try to pick him up and he does not like people coming towards him. He is sweet when he wants to be, and he plays with other dogs well. Petunia on the other hand is a cuddle bug, loves to be the center of attention. I am not sure how to get Ozzy to come to me or even stay still so i can get him, or even get him used to people. Family is always over fawning over them and they are friendly with them, but Ozzy just is so shy. How can i get him to start comming to me at least? Ive tried treats, slowly approaching him, and even leading treats to me and not approaching him, he still wont come. How can i get him out of this??
1 AnswerDogs1 decade agopurchasing a first home?
My boyfriend and i are going to be engaged and married within the next two years and we plan on buying a house. First off, I cannot be on the house loan because of bankruptcy within the last two years. But he has good credit, he has a car loan paid off, and he has only worked at his job for about 90 days though. He has no debt and he can afford an 87000 home on his own effort. But what my questions are, first off, how likely is it that he can even get a home loan being hes only worked at his job for 90x, but has done the same kind of work in two jobs in the last 6 years. And two, i am going to be helping him pay for the house, and i make as much as he does, can he consider my income extra income to boost his affordability of a house?

11 AnswersBooks & Authors1 decade agoFeelings of what i should do and what i am doing?
To start off, i am currently in a relationship. I love my boyfriend very much, who i will refer to as "J", but ive had this feeling about something else the last few years that has been bugging me. I grew up with this man named "G", we went to school together and were good friends, he was my prom date and i even had a huge crush on him in middle school. I realize that times change and so do people, but ive had dreams of "G" for the last few years, like there is supposed to be something between us. He just keeps crossing my mind, and ive not talked to him for 7 years, until recently. Again, through all this, ive had boyfriends, but nobody like "J" who i love very dearly. "J" and i have been thinking about marriage, but its not what it seems, every time we talk about it, it usually ends up in a fight and i usually end up with hurt feelings. But he tries to make up for it after our fights. It has me concerned, because no matter what we are still going to run into this block cont..

Well, this is kind of strange, but it is bugging me like nothing else. I am currently with a wonderful loving boyfriend who I honestly love more than anything. He is such a wonderful man and i am thankful to have him in my life, and for everything he has done for me. I feel like nobody else knows me or would understand me like he does. But what is so strange, i have been having wierd dreams about another man. Not just any man, but somebody i knew growing up that ive known all my life pretty much. I went to school with him, and he was my prom date and i had the hugest crush on him in middle school. I've not had any direct contact with this person ive been having dreams about but people have told me within the last year that he would have liked to seen me at certain events that he would have been at. I can pretty much gurantee that hes single, hes a good ol farm boy. But I had a dream about him again the other night and then wrote him a letter telling him that i have cont...
3 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships1 decade ago1997 Plymouth Breeze issue?
Ive had this car for about a year, and the warranty is about to run out here soon. It hasn't been running right, kinda sputtering. Then finally the check engine light came on and I went to auto zone and had it tested, said it had three different codes, the main one that sticks out is that a piston is misfiring. The guy said that most likely because of the codes of what the light was on for signified that the engine coil is going out. Im concerned, ive had this gut feeling lately to go and trade it in for a reliable vehicle. In all seriousness, from the symptoms, how likely is it to break down anytime soon, and how big of a job or how serious of a problem is this? I am trying to trade the vehicle in this weekend...i hope it lasts!!
5 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agohow can i put some spark back into it?
I've been with my boyfriend for over a year now, and we used to have this great sex life where he was such a horn dog and i loved it. And i perfectly understand that after being with somebody for a while sex drives kinda dissipates but i wouldn't figure it would just almost completely disappear. I know he loves me and he isn't cheating on me with another woman, but i do feel cheated when he stays up all night long (he works 2nd shift and gets off work between 9-12:30 around there and once and a while has a later night) looking and jacking off to porn when he knows that i want him and I've hinted it to him but he doesn't do anything about it, and I'm not sure how to handle that, its frustrating. What can i do to get his attention and make him want me more often. What aggressive moves turn guys on that i can grab his full attention with and distract him from the porn on the computer, what would make him want me instead?
3 AnswersMarriage & Divorce1 decade agohas anybody else had this problem with taxes and bankrupcy?
I filed chapter 7 bankruptcy and when i had the meeting of creditors the trustee handed me a note about my 2006 income tax return. What it said is that i would have to submit a copy of this tax return and the refund check to her. I dont have a problem turning over a copy of the taxes, but the refund check? I dont know why they would need that if it is chapter 7 and all debt was erased, nothing is being paid back. And this was understood by my lawyer as well. So we are both puzzled to why they need this check. has anybody else seen or had to do this?

4 AnswersMarriage & Divorce1 decade agosharing responsibility of housefhold chores with boyfriend?
im really frustrated at my boyfriend right now...it seems that he doesnt have any sense to help out with the chores around the house. Its not like i ask him to do much...for example. I do the cooking, cleaning up afterwords, laundary, cleaning around the house...shopping for the groceries, and i only ask him once and a while to do small favors. I dont nag him because i know if i nag he wont do anything and he will just get mad. So, i usually just ask him once and sometimes he does it sometimes he dont. He treats me well, he is a great boyfriend otherwise but im just tired doing everything and then askinging him for a favor to help out a little bit and it doesnt get done. Not only is he doing this for me to help out..but for the cleanliness of the aparment. I dont mind doing things like this for him to take care of him...he takes care of me well otherwise...its just frustrating to do all the household duties and and clean up after him as well.

2 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships1 decade agoadult child problem with parents?
It seems recently that my parents have become so distant from me. I have one younger sister who just got married and bought a house. I am very happy for her she deserves to be happy. But it dissapoints me when my parents come down to see me and my boyfriend and never want to do anything and act like they do not want to be there or be with me. (like saying things like, well, your sister invited us to the demolotion derby tonight and we were going to go there, but since you invited us here first..i guess...) and it made me feel bad. But my question is, i know they are going to go to my sisters house for christmas. Christmas has been huge for us in our family, but ive been so distant from all of them lately physically and mentally (family lives 1-4 hours apart) My boyfriend and i with his family have two places to go within 30 mins of where we live for the holidays. Is it wrong of me to skip christmas with my family because of the mental and physical distance and go with his fam?
