Deal with it!

Last week I signed up to sew 10 receiving blankets for Humanitarian Aid. As I attempted to get them done, my sewing machine completely freaked out on me and would not sew. This is not uncommon for this particular machine. It does it everything I try to sew anything. It makes me never ever want to sew. But then I forget how my machine makes me want to say bad words and I try again.
This time, there was no fixing that Randy or I could do to solve the problem. I even recently paid $60 to have the dang thing serviced! I was not a happy woman. I gave up.

Grace came over to me, put her little hand on my knee, looked me right in the eye and said, "You signed up to do these blankets and now you are just going to have to deal with it."

That girl! Children are so very humbling. I spent all night trying to figure out how I was going to "deal with it." I came up with nothing.

Then, to my surprise, Randy dealt with it. He brought me home a new machine the next day. Now I have no excuses not to "deal with it." I'd better get those blankets done before this new baby gets here.
