Right you are! I've got evidence.
Oh, this is a hint enough for me to guess the whole sentence.
I'm personally pleased to realize that my 100% self-taught japanese proves to be effective.
Here's the phrase in kanji
20.45 愛用のチェーンソーの切れ味が悪くなってしまったので新しい刃を購入するべきかと悩み続けて い ました
(aiyou no chainsaw no kire-aji ga warukunatte shimatta node atarashii ha wo kounyuu-suru beki ka to nayami tsudzukete imashita)
"My favorite chainsaw got blunt and so it was bothering me that i should buy a new blade for it"
'beki' in japanese means 'ought to'
So she basically went to repair it, and by no means throw it away for a new one.
So my initial understanding was correct. Yay!
Just please, people, don't confuse me! It's actually hard to catch japanese by ear and it's very important for me to know that I understand it in the right way.

And i thought i was gonna stop ^^; thank you nikorai for a very detailed translation.
Here i'll give you some cookies just for being great
.
Compared to you my japanese is like rust to gold.

. so now i learned something new. thanks very much again
