Thank you, Everyone! So So much for all the good pointers and support I did indeed read a lot of the replies, but am just now getting around to grabbing a moment to respond to them.
Today was day 3 with Bailey home, since it was mid afternoon or a little later by the time we finally got her home on Saturday. She's doing very well, she LOVES her crate, way more than I had thought she would.
We've managed to set up an Ideal Schedule, I got lucky, and my Husband was given this whole week off!! So I have help now!! YAY! lol. Our schedule is Up at 7AM on the nose, and I take her out to her potty spot, with Bailey, we've learned that you gotta get her up to a brisk walk before she'll finally eliminate number 2. She urinates fairly quickly in the morning. I'm usually still sleeping for this HAHA. Walking the dog with one eye open! But she gets a treat and high praise when she goes in her potty spot. No matter how many times I took her out she would NOT eliminate for me. She'd pee but that was it. For some reason, the hubby would take her right back out, as soon as I came in and said nope.. no go. And 3 minutes later he'd come in gagging, but this is how we found out that it wasn't me per say, but just that I wasn't getting her to walk fast enough.
Today was an entirely successful day. Up at 7am straight outside to potty, she went straight away both, no problems. Inside to eat and drink. Back out to potty. (Of course I didn't expect her to poop again) We've actually gotten that part down too. She literally goes at 7:30am every morning for that part of it. So I think we've got it timed out right for "this long after she eats.. she'll do this" But since we've got 4 adult eyes watching her now, instead of just me, and we're tag teaming her, she's getting it.
We do have her on a leash when we take her outside. it's a fairly long leash, but we keep it shorter for her for now. Thank you again for all of the great advice and reassurance. I'm glad I was definitely right about being completely against making the dog feel like it's her fault.
