We Interupt This Blog...

with a friendly reminder to always backup your computer. Having your hard-drive crash and losing EVERYTHING is never fun. Trust me, I now know.

Do you want to lament the loss of baby photos? Do you desire to feel the pain of losing every document you ever created? Heavens NO! So what are you doing just reading this? Don't waste another minute. Go! Now! Back it all up!!

(I'm still getting over the loss of everything on my computer, hence the slow blogging. )

Oh Nat, that is so sad- I'm sorry! The thoughts of losing all my kid's baby photos makes me sick. . . thanks for the back-up reminder. Never fun. Yuck!

Oh...I am so sorry!!! I have had way too many warnings and I still haven't done anything about that. I'm out of town right now, but when I get back I will definitely make that my next project. Thanks for the heads up. You've probably exhausted a bunch of options, but I heard that people like "The Geek Squad" and stuff like that have special ways of getting some things back. I don't know...

P.S. I've been meaning to tell you that your cruise looks like so much fun! And yes, those rooms do look huge and nice. We went on a cruise for our honeymoon and the room was so horrible and dinky and dungeonlike. Glad you had fun!

Oh,that makes me so sad for you! I try to back mine up regularly, but I've been a slug about it lately. I would hate to lose all my genealogy. Thanks for the reminder! I'd look into that Geek Squad as I've heard they can search out stuff you think is lost.

Hey, just wondering where you get all your coupons. I know you've been doing some research & so have I, but I'm frustrated with the amount of coupons that don't apply to me! Any suggestions?

Natalie, are you still lost in cyberspace? I miss hearing your funny stories!

Thanks to the wonderful Mike Jensen who no longer lives across the street from me. He was my computer GEEK and still is but from Kaysville, Ut. I have an external hard drive that I use to save all my important stuff on like PHOTOs.... Thinking of what you lost just makes me sick, I am so sorry. Nat you can get one at costco for less than a $100.00 with tons of memory on it and it just hooks up via USB.
