And I'm happy to be here and hope I can live out my days here, but it is a sobering thought! I remember 20 or so years ago when our neighbors moved to their dream house. She said (and she was about 6 years younger that my 20 years ago age!), "This is the last house I'll ever live in!" It seemed a strange thought to me then but I understand it now.<br /><br />I hope you get your 'new' machine back soon! Good thing you have the work horse as a back-up!Carol Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09390245709306826757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-24687296565957651722012-03-10T08:16:46.285-08:002012-03-10T08:16:46.285-08:00Again, "get well soon" to your machine. ...Again, "get well soon" to your machine. Too bad we are so distant, I could lend you one. Maybe someone there in God's country will have one to spare should it become necessary.

And I wonder how this came to be? I preferred the previous house and still miss it. I also see another house on my walks with the dog and would like to live there.<br /><br />This house is too large now. Too much room for piles, clutter and excess. It is all on one floor and easy to maneuver a scooter or wheelchair. We "planned" and figured we would retire here. Now, I wish it were a different house, entirely. This is the 12th place I have lived. Imagine that. The first was a vintage trailer in a large field of grass.Joanne Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623855664379207620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-46394475275965332232012-03-10T07:08:26.397-08:002012-03-10T07:08:26.397-08:00I can tell by the colors it's a Janome..is it...I can tell by the colors it's a Janome..is it the 6500? Mine did something similar once and it turned out that the bobbin I was using was NOT a Janome bobbin which turned out to be a teeny tiny bit different (evey so slightly convex) than your average clear plastic whatever bobbin! The commoners will work but with the right combination of thread and task...thread vomiting and tension disruptions ensue.<br /><br />The pro cleaned scandalous filth, oil parts to which I have no access, reset the tensions and with the proper bobbin, Big J went back to his good natured, hard working self. I bought a dozen Janome bobbins and threw out the rest..the difference is so scant it was too easy to make the mistake again.Deb Lacativahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037530669295128974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-39973234764338447672012-03-10T05:26:39.027-08:002012-03-10T05:26:39.027-08:00Life is short...

I, for one, seem to take it personally when the machines don't work. I also enjoyed reading about your house. This is my last too and I am the queen of impulsive. Enjoying your blog very much.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17095809082494749979noreply@blogger.com
