I am very intimidated by my sewing machine but I try to use it at least once every 5 or 6 years. I managed to stitch one side of a new quilt cover I'm making from a nice big sheet, and then my bobbin ran out of thread. I've invited a sewing friend for coffee so she can fix it for me. I think she was also the one who threaded it for me 5 years ago...
I feel so incompetent. My brain will not do it, even after seeing many video tutorials and reading the manual over and over.

Time to put the coffee on. Yay!
I can so relate to this. I have a sewing machine but I never can remember how to do the most basic stuff with it so it's like a total waste of time and space for me.

Ditto here. I'm lucky I can change a lightbulb. There's nothing I could make with a sewing machine that I can't find online.
I need walls around this little 4 acre farm for a windbreak. It's below 50 and the wind is blowing. No sun out today at all and I don't have feathers like the chickens or fur like the dogs....
