As my beloved laptop seems to be losing life, she offered up enough ooomph for me to pull prized pictures to the safety of a portable hard drive.
This post? Netbook composed and posted while our long-suffering, dutifully laboring Toshiba rests for the night. Knowing irreplaceable images are preserved and retrievable Makes My Monday!

My Toshiba got a new lease on life when I finally threw in the towel and punched the button that said "return to factory settings." After wiping it's brain clean, it greeted me with a "thanks for buying me!" message and runs like a dream now. Glad you saved your pictures!
I have a complicated system of backup on a harddrive and DVD's. Definetely wort it.
whew! good save! what a relief!! Paul has an entire network set up here with our computers...I sure hope he has a good backup!
Thank goodness...that's why my hubby is so ridiculously on top of backing up our files, huh? BTW (not to pressure you at all b/c I think you definitely have enough going on in your life for this not to be your first priority), but I wanted to make sure that I emailed you my address for the book I won...I can't remember and just figured I would check. Thanks!!!
whew. such a good...no, a great...feeling knowing photos are saved.
especially since your photos are always so fun!
blessings to you this monday!
Oh my gosh, this has been happening to so many people I know lately! Thank goodness that your photos are saved. I have a 3-way back up system. A bit much, but it feels safe! I promise I'll participate later today!
Good job saving and backing up the precious photo's! That would Make My monday also!
I'm thankful for this reminder. We'd saved our photos on a zip at one time then lost the zip... We need to do it again. It would be a tragedy to lose all our photos! Glad you have all yours safe and secure!
Oh man - I need to back up the last few months! I used to be pretty good at remembering.....
Thank goodness you got yours in time :)
Ahhh yes! I know this issue all too well! When E&W were babies, I lost ALL of their 3-4 month photos when my computer crashed. It was heartbreaking. (luckily I had emailed HUNDREDS of pictures to people who were able to send me back photos). Since then, I back EVERYTHING up.
Glad you were able to save your photos :)
Makes My Monday too!
Your post makes my monday, My computer is running so slow...so I checked it out..and I am almost out of space on my computer. I take lots of pictures and I need to get them on cds stat!
Thanks for the reminder
Oh that is so scary isn't it!!
How I understand! I'm having problems with my computer too. I might have to be w/o it for a few weeks! :( I just down loaded everything to my external hard drive last night.
Take care! ;0)
I know the feeling of lost pictures. I finally researched and found Shutterfly. Love it and all my pictures are there and every month or so I save them on a cd
We learned the importance of an external hard drive the hard way!
We just bought a Toshiba lap top! Did you like yours?
I'm going to have to start participating in this!
I do tripple back ups of my photos...I lost two years worth WAY BACK...and it was horrible!!!
