Can I cry on your shoulder?

Thanks, everybody, for the help in lifting my spirits. I was just feeling sorry for myself, and wasn't looking at the big picture. I really am blessed, and this leak is certainly not the end of the world. There are so many others in this world who are so much worse off than me, that I really have no call to complain. Fabric will dry, and I can sew someplace else till the leaking stops...(by spring, maybe?) Anyway, thanks, everyone!! You're a blessing!!!

AHHHHHH so sorry to hear this. Hope you can make light of the situation .... move your sewing machine into the kitchen table and start with fabric that isnt wet. take a break now and again and move the buckets...

Tis the time for leaks, did you read the one in the first section where her cupboard stash is all wet? I had one in my sewing room but thankfully the leak fell on plastic boxes of crafts and thread. MyDH had to replace part of a wall in the closet upstairs but some day the ceiling will need to be redone. We have a roof problem and that area needs to be repaired again. Rinse and dry your fabric and you are wise to take your machine to another area to sew.
