Sad day!

I got a call from Jackman's repair person and he said he couldn't repair my sewing machine, and that there was no charge for looking at it.  He recommended I send it to an authorized Janome dealer to look at (probably going through the last place that repaired it--but it ran me $125. just for them to look at it, not counting the repair/parts).  So.  I either need to make due with the back up one I have and start pricing what I want for features for a new machine, or I need to suck it up and send it out yet again and pay for it to be looked at by an expert in my brand...  Not sure what I want to do at this time.  It is old--over 12 years, so I have certainly gotten my money out of it.  It just has such sentimental value for me! 

We are stuck with a grey and gloomy day again today, and it just depresses me.  One of the cats (the one in heat, I am presuming) peed again on my down comforter, and when it was on the floor awaiting a trip down to the laundry room, one of the dogs peed on it too.  At this rate I am going to need a new comforter too in the near future!  So tired of pets!

Eric and I went out for a nice lunch this afternoon, although our server was clueless in many ways--misheard our order, gave the wrong items to the wrong person; he made up for it by making the corrections, which actually benefitted us, but it was so odd.  We had a good conversation and it is nice to be away from the house and be just us now and again. 

Now, it really is time I hit the books.  I am so far behind at the moment that it is upsetting me! I need some peace and quiet and limited distractions!
