      Okay so I have OED but let me tell you it has saved my life. Best therapy in the world when you have lost someone you love and it helps you through the tough times, however the pets are really bad and you have to buy another USB because you have so many designs. In fact probably more than you will ever use but even with that it is cheap therapy.

      My husband also has the affliction on my behalf, has all his pants motiffed or monogrammed,always makes sure he knows where fabric and thread suppliers are when on holiday,Christmas & b/days, give him a list of what I would like. I knew he was infected when we went to one of his hobby gatherings and he had me embroider a T'shirt with the motif. He used to have a Smart car and even designed a pic, which I digitized and embroidered and made a back shelf cover and 2 head rest inserts. I don't let him loose on the machine though that is my baby. For those of you who don't know what a Smart car looks like

      Wise lady. My husband also supported my habit as well and since he pasted away it has been my saving grace.

      People who are not in this 'alternative lifestyle' just don't understand how important it is to 'us'.

      Ohhhh, no! What does it mean when you arrange your living room around your machine...because that is your idea of spending time with your husband?? (At least he supports it, probably because it keeps me quiet! LOL)

      Sher, my face is red, tears are in my eyes, I think I wet myself because I laughed soooo hard. I am at work and my office is on a patient unit, they really must think I am completely nuts now!! Yep, I ripped open the sleeve of my uniform jacket to do the sleeve! I could not settle for one design so did two on Andrea's skort the other day. I have a come-back for almost everything on the list. And yes, I have wanted until hubby went to work to rush into the sewing room like a woman after a fix. As far as the thread racks, I bought another one last week.

      do you know that feeling ...when you walk into a room and after a few awkward moments you discover that you are in a room full of like minded people. that it doesn't matter that you are always snacking at the computer.that when dh comes home you you ask if he's ok and retreat to the computer. that you do laundry on the half hour just so you don't miss the hourly free of hunt designs. that your efforts at site seeing while on vacation is to boot up and check out the albumns here on Sick Stitch chat,Sick at Yahoo Well...that may be a part of your lives now that you are a member of the Sick forums. .....Brother Shawn we are with you all the way.

      Do you realize that if this keeps up a boat will NOT be big enough, we are going need the Queen Mary or something of that size.
