A time has come that we know will come, however much we may dread its arrival.
I don't really know how this happened; I bought this machine, brand new. How can it be old? I don't know. But somehow it has gotten crankier and crankier over the years. From being totally reliable, it has become more and more cantankerous.
I've taken it in. $150 here, $250 there.............
Meanwhile, my sewing buddies are all raving about their new little cheap portable machines, loaded with features, less than $150................................
Yesterday I asked the old Viking to sew up a ripped-out seam on my sweat pants, and it would only go backward.
I am trying to make out the writing on the wall -- I think it says this machine is ready for its trip to Valhalla.
Alas.
