Beth,
Oh yes, if the motor was hot or
something I would do something but it's fine.
I did take off the housing
& look at the possibility of replacing the chain and it just did not look
uncomplicated.

I don't know if I'd let it go on
forever. It might become a fire hazard eventually, KWIM? Just
check on it. See if the base feels hot. You KNOW you can turn the
electricity off for a few minutes and detach the base plate from the ceiling
and just turn it off that way, right? and while you're in there, put a
new chain on it. :) I had one break off once, but it was an
overhead light, not a fan. I just took the globe off and twisted the
bulb a little to turn it off an on until I got a new chain. Then I found
out I had to get a whole new ceiling fixture because the one I had was so
old. My house was built in the 50s and most of it was still the same as
the day it was built (until I moved in and started renovating
everything)
Just be careful with that ceiling fan, :) Beth

Yes, you would just think that we would just get it fixed,
wouldn't you? LOL But now I sorta want to see just how long it will go.
