Waiting for my new machine!

I had to send my Anniversary Edition Cricut 2 back to Provo Craft because the blade starting dragging so bad it was cutting the letters. I still have my original baby bug from Dec. 2005, but I really, really miss my big machine. I can't seem to get creative at all because all the things I want to do, I need the larger machine. My old machine arrived at PC last Wednesday so I am hoping a new one is on the way to me soon. I ordered the new cartridge Spring Cottage and it should be here on Wednesday and I have some challenges for Exploring Cricut to get started on. You never know how much you miss something till it is gone!!!
