A bit of trouble

I know Nolting will be able to fix me up, probably with a five minute phone call, so I'm not really complaining, but it is a bit of an aggravation to have the machine acting up.  Not it seems like the motor speeds up and slows down, even in non stitch regulated mode. 

I was able to finish up the two tops that were embroidery blocks, so at least I got something accomplished this weekend.  Really wanted to finish three total, but I'm pretty tired and probably wouldn't have gotten a third one done anyway.  Might go up to the sewing room later tonight and piece a couple backs if I feel like it.  Hey, worse comes to worse I will quilt the rest of the tops on the domestic machine if I have to.  But I sincerely doubt it will come to that.

I have some clam chowder simmering on the stove.  Today the temperature didn't even get above freezing, so it was a good day for soup.    Ev and I went with a few people to Edwardsville to the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant to watch the Bears and Rams game.  Ugh.  Bears lost.  I have a few wings left over that are calling my name...
