When you don't have room for any more and when the rented storage facilities start to look good.

Where is your sense of adventure and are all those toe nails really necessary ??

Well, I'm not really into pain, but I'm sure we'll find places for all of them. We'll just have to get creative! Would it be blasphemous to say we could use them as door stops? :)

When it looks like your flooring is 3d--as completely covered in machines. Now I'm wondering what will happen to all of my babies when I die. Who will love them????

I'm there! I have tried several times to run a couple of my collectibles on CraigsList but chickened out at the last minute. I simply do NOT go look at advertised ones anymore ....... that really hurts, ya know? Gotta be a way out of this pickle ..........................

The addict's lament - After just one more. It'll be time to quit after just one more. Like the Greyhound that showed up today. Just one more.... Or maybe the one after that, after all I still need a Pfaff 130. Oh, and I can't forget a Willcox & Gibbs. And a Vertical Feed - can't be done without a Vertical Feed....
