Self control

Today I drove to the middle of no where, really.  I live in rural New York and today I drove even further into rural NY.  There was a Necchi Super Nova Julia 534 advertised on Craigslist and I drove to the middle of a state forest to look at it.  I knew that the wiring was bad and that the motor did not fire up.  I still went.  It took me about an hour and I did drive over some flood damaged roads  and some dirt roads.  The garmin wanted me to take a questionable route, so I followed the Gazeteer.  Originally the land was a farm, now it is a forest.  I love nature.

The machine turned freely.  The wiring was a mess.  The power cord looked unique with four pins.  There was no way to salvage it since it is a molded piece.  I knew that I did not want to bring home another project.  Not for forty bucks.  She would not budge on her price.  eBay influence I am certain.  So, if she does list it on eBay I will watch it.  Would I take the 35 mile trek out there again to buy it?  Sure for five bucks.

Now.  I know nothing about Necchi..  Maybe forty bucks is a deal for a non working vintage Necchi Super Nova Julia 534.  But it isn't to me.  Steven is proud of me.  "Way to show some self control, honey."
