Who knew??? poorpigling, surely Lynn will open up a coffee shop on the side so we can have MORE COFFEE to remember these technical details on a Saturday morning, yes? ------ Helen V: Baby Lock Companion - BL 1550 Rachel: Singer 57285c

There's this black cord that hangs off the iron - well, on my model it's a black cord. What model iron do you have? Do you have the manual to your iron? ------ Helen V: Baby Lock Companion - BL 1550 Rachel: Singer 57285c

I push and push that button but it seems that it works better if you stick that black tail into the two little slots in your wall. You have to look all over for the slots.

I'm TELLING you! BTW, I just can't seem to chop my onions straight. I think the housing developer that built my house cheaped out. I only have ONE of those slots on EACH WALL of my office! Boy, some companies are all about profit! ------ Helen V: Baby Lock Companion - BL 1550 Rachel: Singer 57285c

I have one TV that just won't shut off no matter what.. its unplugged when not in use. And yes.. I forget that when I try to turn it on. Its the little complications in our lives that make us go nuts you know.

This morning I forgot to put the lid on the coffee pot.. the plastic piece that allows the coffee to drip down.. Came back to find a nice mixture of coffee grounds and coffee all over my counter. Then I rinsed it all off.. and tried again.. forgetting the darn filter as the parts were in the sink from being rinsed off. THE MORAL of this story is.. Don't try to make coffee until you have already drank some coffee.

The hot water just stays there! When you get back to it, it will be a little cooler, but the color of the tea will still be as clear as plain water! j.

I don't have tails to mess with. :) This morning I did discover that if you forget to leave the big heater on in the living room that will heat the whole house up, water pipes freeze. So you can't make a mess with the blenders or coffee pots. ------ Elaina SewDucky.com
