Awwww. Hope you get your baby fixed up really soon. Sounds like a good time to do some cutting, hand sewing and things like that to occupy your time. You'll really appreciate that baby when she is well.

That's how I started using my Singer 201. My viking die in the middle of a quilt so I pulled the 201 I inherited up out of the cabinet, vacuumed the dust off, oiled it completely and put on a walking foot. Now the Viking is collecting dust! lol

How long is the wait time to get your machine repaired? If it's 3 weeks like it is around here. I would take it in now, by the time it's ready the retirement stuff will be all taken care of and your baby will be ready to come home.
Best of luck to you. When this is all over you will be comforting the rest of us. That's what we do for each other isn't it. Lift up, comfort, support. We as a group are your go to people!

Next was the two sump pumps that run 24/7 in the basement this time of year...no need to tell you what fun a wet basement is. DH retired the 28th of April so thought okay things will get better...not! The icing on the cake was last Thursday. I went to the sewing room for some quality time with my Janome 6600P and it died. Every ERROR message is lit up across the screen and that is all I get. OH NO!!! This is my lifeline, my baby. I have had her for 6 yrs and never had a problem with her. I called 2 service places and then called Janome. All three said "sounds like the contol board or the motor...may not be fixable. The real kicker is now that DH has retired, I have to wait for atleast 6-8 weeks before we can take her to be fixed or even looked at, until all his retirement stuff is in order. I do have a small machine as a backup, but, it is nowhere near the quality of my Janome 6600. I know I should be thankful that I do have the backup...but, I want my baby back(Yes I am Spoiled). Okay...I'm done whining...but, I knew my family on the quilt forum would understand!!!
