Crash

free weekend

list of projects

coffee on

computer fired up

ready to go

crash

computer goes down

all files lost

pictures floating in cyberspace

overwhelming panic

weekend shot

I woke up Saturday morning excited for this weekend to begin.  All week long I compiled a list of things to do this weekend.  Organize pictures and files on my computer, back them up to external hard drive, edit some writings, do some accounting etc.  As I started organizing and getting ready to hook up the external hard drive, my computer screen goes blank.  I restart my computer, try to pull up my files...all folders empty.  Needless to say, I panicked.  I packed up my computer and went in search of the geek squad.  They assured me, it was an easy fix.  However, it would be 24 to 48 hours until I got the computer back. 

In that brief moment all my best laid plans gone.  I hate to admit how much I missed my computer, but I did.  I would be reading and want to check something on the computer.  Alas the table was empty.  So I spent the weekend trying to entertain myself in different ways.  And while I enjoyed reading and sleeping a little later, I am thrilled to have my computer back. 

Much like life, we have plans made and crash...something changes.   Lesson learned...don't take anything for granted.
