goes to my Billy!
He had been telling me for quite some time that I needed to back up my pictures and stuff onto our external hard drive. "Yeah, yeah, I know I need to...blah blah blah...
" was always my thinking. It was one of those things that I had on my mental to-do list, but never really got around to doing. Well, about 2 weeks ago, I was upstairs and Billy brought up the external hard drive and said "HERE!" So, since I didn't have to get off my duff, I went ahead and backed up all my pictures and scrapbook pages that I had finished (which is hours upon hours of work). Well, guess what?! My computer's hard drive crashed on Friday!!!! I couldn't believe it. I've never had a computer crash- they've always just gone super slow until we can't stand it and then get a new one. So thanks to my hubby, something that would have been totally HORRIBLE and probably have given me a complete melt/breakdown, was just a pain and a little upsetting. I haven't lost anything that can't be replaced. I'm pretty bummed out because all of my scrapbooking supplies (digital ones that is) were on my computer and I didn't back those up. Billy is hoping they can be salvaged and has already ordered something to help us get to them and has ordered a new hard drive (a bigger one too!) He spent lots of time researching- figuring out what was wrong, getting a new hard drive and all that stuff. Thank you sweetie for saving the day (and my files)!!!
Oh, and that picture isn't of my laptop, thank goodness, but I needed a pic to go with my post!

Whoa!! I better back up my computer! Good job Billie!!
I hope you made his favorite meals for a week! So glad you avoided that catastrophy... guess I'd better obey my hubby and do the same!
:)
Thankfully we have a completely separate hard drive in the computer, as well as an external one, so everything is backed up. I am so scared of something like that happening. Your bhusband totally does get the award for this one!
Funny, Bill has been bugging me to upload the photos from our camera. I didn't do it and when I was trying to do to many things a once I erased all of them I had over 200. I wish I had listened to my Bill. By the way I finally have a blog. It is still under construction take a look and give me some suggestions. thevasifiles.blogspot
Oh thanks for looking. My first comment!
Nathan always tells me to do the same thing and I give him the same reaction. I told him your story and saved all my pictures on another drive. He said, "Why is it you always listen to everyone else but me?" Poor guy!
Good for Billy! I can't believe your computer really crashed. I didn't know that really happens!
Yikes, I better get a back up too! Glad he was in tune with the spirit!
