LEARN FROM MY MISTAKES

I know it's been a while since I've blogged. We've been really busy. The kids had their end of the year dance production. It was wonderful. I was back stage and it was a lot of fun. I can't wait until the DVD comes out to see what it looked like from the front.

I was already to sit down and load my pictures into my Creative Memories Story Book Program. Turned on my computer and nothing but a black screen. I thought I was going to get sick. I turned it off and on several times, but nothing. Now I am very good about backing up photos onto my external hard drive. At the end of the month I even back everything up on a second hard drive. I had taken a lot of pictures of TJ's graduation, Daniel's birthday, dance rehearsals, and back stage dance production. I figured it would not hurt to back every thing up this weekend after I edited some of the photos. Just think if your computer did not turn on, all the stuff you would lose. All my software serial numbers. I'm sure if I did save the serial numbers I probably saved them on my computer.
Keep your fingers crossed. Doug was on the phone with HP last night and for a small fee (LOL) they will help him get as much stuff back as we can. I'm sure he will be on the phone with someone he really can't understand for a couple more nights. THANK YOU, DOUG!!!!!!

SO EVERYONE NEEDS TO BACK UP YOUR COMPUTER STUFF. DON'T FORGET TO WRITE DOWN YOUR SOFTWARE SERIAL NUMBERS!!!!!!!!! Learn from my mistake!!!!!
