This is just a statement - but I got on the board this am to let the world know that I was going to my sewing room to begin working on the lower gears of my Singer Stylist machine that I bought for $25. I used it at home for almost a year and the first retreat I took it to the gears sheared off some cogs. Since then it's been sitting on my shelf collecting dust. Thanks to Ebay I now have ordered my new gears and will put on my tinkering cloths to repair my baby. I have missed it. It was a beautiful little 1/4 incher. Let the operation day begin. The problem was that I got to reading all the wonderful comments to some of my earlier posts and had to have my coffee and before I knew it 2 hours have come and gone. So now sweet people I am off, off line that is, I've probably always been a little off to my friends. lol blessings
