ain't nobody got time for that!

Spent Sunday afternoon in the ER.

Apparently my thoracic spine is as mess too. 

I feel like a big old Charlie Brown ugh

or a little one.
Gotta get better before my son's wedding on Saturday!

karma?

I really wanted to sew the other day.
Gathered some fabric scraps, wanted to make myself a little keychain.
Snuggled in with my old singer.

Nothing.

Checked to make sure everything was plugged in. 
Still nothing.
Unplugged them and re-plugged.

Dead.

Checked the outlet.
Fan worked.
Third time's the charm right?
Nope.

Must look on the bright side.
Had it for a long time.
Sewed quilts,and crafts, 
patched lots of barn pants.
Miles of stitching, I'm sure. 
Was a cheap machine to start with.
It did well.
I had my fun.
I will save for another one.
just had to put new brakes and calibers in my car :(
had a tractor repair bill of over $9000, yup. that's thousand :(
had our daughter's wedding in April :)
my son is getting married in 19 days! :)
(my hubby got  new suit. he looks so sazzy in it :) 
And I got one of my dresses on sale, the other one on clearance :)
oops, I got distracted...



Don't see a new machine anytime soon. 
Maybe I will unplug it and plug it again one more time, just to make sure.
