OK, feel free to ignore me or tell me to mind my own business, but ... are you sure this is really about a spindle? I know you've been under a lot of pressure what with the transition from SAHM to WOHM and from homeschooling to outside schooling. Do you think maybe, just maybe a little of this was just the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back? That maybe there's a little, possibly subconcious, resentment toward DH over these changes and his less than perfect work on your favorite spindle made it bubble up a bit? Just a thought.

Backing away slowly....
