I cannot believe it

I hit the sewing room right off the bat this morning. I sat down and started reading every thing in the owners manual . I had been sitting about 20minutes when DH came through the door. It scared me that he was home from hunting that early-I thought he had got hurt. But, he said NO, that he came back to work on the embroidery machine.Now my DH cannot read -or-write -BUT -in 20 minutes he had the embroidery machine purring like a kitten!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take a look at this test I sewed out! Isn't that the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now , let's see what kind of trouble I can get into next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, my joy did not last long -I had to run out of bobbin thread-and the minute that I did that - misery rained down upon me AGAIN! I tried my normal mode of repair-that being BEGGING and PLEADING! But, that did not accomplish my goal either.

I was so upset that I was not accomplishing my goal -I just gave up and went into the kitchen and started peeling potatoes. Matter of fact , I peeled a BIG POT of potatoes. By then I decided I was working on enough potatoes to make potato salad and also a dish that is potatoes and peas and onions -then then thicken them and add a wee bit of butter and then have cornbread to sop of the juices. But, about that time DH comes through the door again, and says -what is wrong with you -so I replied -you know what is wrong with me. So, off he goes to the dungeon(not really) and then comes out smiling and says it is fixed. O, by now -I know you can see the steam escaping from my ears. I do run a test and it is perfect. I am still too miffed at it to even submit myself for humiliation from that dumb machine - I get lucky and a girlfriend calls and I have not heard from her in -it seems like a lifetime. So, I spend a half hour chatting with her -letting that machine know that I am not at its mercy - I will not let it see me cry- I am making it jealous! RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, it will just  have to feel lonely and neglected a while longer because I am heading out to do the chores and that will take an hour and half! That will be good for it! SO THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

I did get all the chores completed and then I gather up my bucket and went to dig potatoes. I only had a small row left and it quickly filled my 5 gallon bucket up. By then I was too tired to carry it to the house-so I  heaved it over the fence into the yard and when DH comes in from hunting we will bring it up. By then I was so tired that I stopped and everytime I stopped to rest - I had to take a few minutes to just absorb the beauty all around me . The trees are fast losing their foliage garment and there are leaves everywhere - like they are dancing in the breeze. Even the aroma of Fall just over whelms my sense of smell -all kinda musky. Maybe it was just meant for me to take this brief spell to count my blessings and enjoy all the artwork in my neck of the woods. :)

Well, I finally made it in and ran the vacuum and did the dishes and slip into the sewing room. I set the naughty machine up and find the design again and hit the button -ONLY to see White thread..... OK, not to panic I pull to  memory what DH had told me about the dumb bobbin. AFTER I put it in place and run it in its little trail it takes it is suppose to look a certain way - which it does not. For Four different times I thread and rethread it -almost about to give up because after it is threaded right - how in the world does it get a mind of its own and go where I do not want it to go. But , the next time it takes off like it  has some sense- until I have to change colors-then it tries to jerk the top thread out of my hand -once it succeeds and I have to stop and redo everything -two times it jerks the thread out of my hand -and then it takes off like it is suppose to. I do not like this WAR- this is suppose to be a job that I love -but I do not love having to redo things over and over.

I was having god luck and it was working -so I heaved a big sign of relief and ===it broke a needle- ok - time to say good night . I pray that everyone of you have double the good things happen to you . Love to all"!:)
