The Crash...
Last Wednesday was NOT a good day.
My MacBook died...
She had not been backed up in almost a year.
When I calmly asked the "genius" at the Genius Bar if he was saying all my documents and pictures were gone, he casually replied, "Yep."
"Yep" did not go over well with me.
I power walked through the mall trying to make it to the parking lot without bursting into tears.
Crying, sniffling, CRYING and shortness of breath followed.
I know it's just a computer...the computer doesn't bother me.
It's my MEMORIES!
I'm doing much better this week.
I've been trying to recover work files I might have sent through email, but my pictures are gone.
If you have any pictures from events, holidays or get togethers we shared together, I would deeply appreciate them.

With that said...BACK UP YOUR COMPUTERS TODAY! SAVE YOUR PICTURES IN A MILLION DIFFERENT PLACES...you'll be so glad you did.


(sorry for the debby downer post)

  2. I am so sorry, Kori! The same thing happened to us right after Cambell was born. Thankfully all of the pictures of her birth were safe, but we lost all of my pregnancy pictures except for a few. We now have Time Capsule from Apple for backup and would totally recommend it.

  3. The sad thing is, we actually have Time Capsule, but we never got it set up properly when we moved into our new house :(

    Thanks for feeling my pain!
