Just Now Retired!

Well, it actually came with a power cord even though they said it would not. Unfortunately, it did not come with a bobbin case. I had to go to the store to buy one today and it was expensive. The part I am missing now is the foot control which doesn’t come until Saturday. I am now sewing by pushing a button which I have not totally learned to control yet. It’s an adventure!

I can’t use it yet. I purchased a display model from eBay. I had to buy all accessories, including power cord, separately. The power cord is due to arrive today. I have a feeling it’s going to be delivered to the mail box where I won’t see it until tomorrow. Hopefully I will last that long…

We were going to go hiking tomorrow. I had the hike all picked out. Then we thought about all of the corona-virus cases and decided not. The last times we have been hiking we passed lots of people without masks. I think it’s not worth the risk right now. The hike I had picked out can be done in the winter, so we will do it a different weekend when things are not so bad.

I took in my old machine for service because it was not sewing well. I looked at new machines and tried one out. Then I went home and ordered one on eBay. This is a purchase of a lifetime! It’s expensive enough that I know there will not be another one.

There was rain in the forecast, but you know it was a beautiful day. Oh well. Lots of yard work was accomplished. Mostly the clearing of leaves.

I have a new custom order for a pet carrier. She wants the inside to be made out of fleece. I think this is a good idea and I might carry it forward. Trouble is I have lots of material purchased, so I will need to use that up first.

I now have Pokémon Pet Carriers for sale at https://www.etsy.com/shop/suziesoft I am hoping that they will sell well. We will see. Christmas is coming.

This is my adult dog. She is 7 years old and a wonderful friend. Both my dogs are Welsh Spring Spaniels. Picture is taken in my yard.

I am so excited to have our new president selected! It is such a relief. Whenever a pass somebody without a mask I wonder if it’s a political issue. I really wish Trump had not encouraged us to do ourselves in. The case counts now are higher than ever and if we would all wear masks it would be much better for all.

Now we must all be patient and wait to see how the presidential election turns out. Patience is not easy. Especially for me. I just want to fast forward.
