What a bummer...

Yesterday my hard-drive on my lap top crashed! Luckily though, I had already been burning pictures to cd's and I had uploaded a bunch of them to shutterfly so I didn't loose to much! I did however loose the pictures from Bekka's dance recital, but I have them on here so I am going to try to print them and see if they loose any print quality. I had printed all the way up to Halloween 2007, and hadn't dumped my storage card from my camera so I still have the pictures I took up at Snowbasin of the girls last Fall, Thanksgiving, Christmas and sledding which made me happy! I bought a new hard drive and am waiting for the recovery disk to come from Toshiba since I can't find the cd's that are in the box from when I got the laptop, but that is going to take anywhere from 2-3 weeks to get, so I am kinda bummed about that. Now I have to go and look for all of my software program cd's so I can re-install Microsoft Office and Photoshop and any of the other programs I use alot of. Good news is that I will have a bigger hard drive, bad news is that I will now be needing to purchase an external hard drive so I can store pictures on it so that this doesn't happen again! I plan to take all of the cd's that I have pictures on and put them on the external hard drive so I have 2 places that pictures are stored! Oh well.....what do you do!

Travis's Mom and Hugh were here this last weekend and we had our 2nd Christmas! I have pictures and will post them later this afternoon!!! Check back!

I have had that happen, too. I had a friend that was a computer guru come over and he was able to retrieve some things back for me. You should take it to someone that may know something more than the average Joe and see if anything can be done. Good luck!
