It's been three weeks but I'm finally back online!Our laptop died a quick, black screened death. I thought I had lost all my pictures I'd just uploaded to the computer, yet hadn't put on the external hard drive yet. And had deleted off the camera too.
I told myself to not panic. A trip to the computer doctors resulted in a diagnosis of "the black screen of doom." Aka, time to get a new laptop. I kept the fretting to myself for a good week, thinking I'd just lost all my pictures that hadn't been backed up yet (this included my Uncle Paul's funeral.... yeah, it's been a long three weeks).
Jeff begrudgingly handed over more money to get me blogging again (apparently he didn't like me bugging him at night since I'm a night owl), in the midst of a pricey garage roof repair. And my awesome, somewhat geeky brother put all panic to rest when he pulled out our old hard drive and found all my files! So with a slew of cords, gadgets, camera cords, and external hard drives I'm back in blogging business.
