I like to sew it, sew it!

I am so excited , I have to post it on my blog. My new sewing machine is finally here!
I ordered one from overstock.com on the 17th. They sent me the tracking number and when I checked it on the 23rd, It was delivered to Athens, Ga. I called them to see what was up and the guy put me on hold for an insane amount of time. He came back and said he talked to UPS and they told him it was the wrong tracking number. UPS was to email me a tracking number in a day or two. Well that never showed up so I called UPS yesterday and they acted like I was stupid for thinking they could give me a tracking number. Overstock had to do that! So I called overstock again, and that lady said it was the right package but it got delivered to the wrong address somehow. She shipped out a replacement as who knows where my sewing machine actually ended up.
Today I get an email that gives me a corrected tracking number for the original order and the tracking number for the replacement order. Guess what?! The package was out for delivery from Tualiton. So I now have my original order which was indeed the wrong tracking number not the wrong mailing address, and I will be recieving my replacement next week. I have to call overstock and get a return lable when that one comes or we have bought 2 sewing machine and I only need one. Whew! Next time I think I will just go to Costco. My mom likes hers from there.

Sounds like that must have been aggravating!

Hi Hi!
I got a new sewing machine on sale on black friday, I figured out how to turn it on and how to use it... without loosing an arm or a leg... those things are dangerous!
I had never tried one before, but work is so crazy lately I haven't even begun to plan what to do first with it.
I think I want to do a loveseat cover... but I have not the slightest idea of how to start... oh yay.
