WHY do I do these things to myself .... I went shopping and the autopilot on my car parked in front of the LQS. I *had* to go in. Found two gorgeous fabrics and they came home with me. Debating whether I want to keep them for my stash or use them for the boom ... will have to decide soon.

But the bigger problem was on my way out the owner stopped me just as I was passing the Janome 12000 and we started chatting about it. He knows I have the 6600 and wouldn't part with it for the world. He whispered to me .... "l'll sell it to you for the trade-in price of $8,000 and you can keep the 6600 instead of trading it in!!".

ACH!!! How do I tell my husband that I NEED $8000 for yet ANOTHER sewing machine when he's trying to save a few $$ to buy himself a "toy" (a BMW). He never buys himself toys!

I think I'm going to have to pass on the deal of a century
