Merry Disaster

My laptop crashed and it appears to be unsalvagable.   It was a Mac, so I didn’t need to be backing it up, right? (haha to me).   I have lost my calendar for the last 4 years, my address book (both email and snail  mail), all contact information, all recipes, all menus and schedules, tons of important documents and records, and more.

SO, the moral of this story is: back it up, even if it is a Mac.   The entire time I have owned a Mac I have never had trouble.. it doesn’t need its nose wiped every 5 minutes like a PC.    You’ll never convince me that PC’s are better, even though it seems my Mac has died in a blaze of sudden ugliness.   Oh well.

As a result of this disaster, that I need all your contact info again.  If you are reading this, send me your address, snail mail and email, and whatever contact info you want me to have.  Oh, and if we have an appointment together, you should pop me an email so I can record it.   Send it to anna@thorburnfamily.com.  I will get it eventually.

Meanwhile, a friend of ours will try very hard to retreive some of my data.  I have no way to get a new computer right now so I will be hit or miss online for a while.  I have to use Rich’s laptop or business computer and they are a royal pain & more time consuming than using a Mac, so it won’t be often. 

 Boo hoo for me!
