A LOT OF WHAT?!?

Answer to the Question: I have been really diggin' alphas lately. Sometimes, title-ing and alphas can really make a page!! So check out a few I have out today. I'm really proud of them. And of course, I have some gorgeous inspirational layouts for you to browse through.

Oh and BTW.... I'm sure a few of you heard about my tragedy that happen over this last weekend. Yeah... my external hard drive decided that it had it's last leg after only 3 months of use. So all of my precious photos, layouts and designing tools are gone. I'm doing much better though...thank you for all of your kind words, they made my day when I was feeling pretty crummy. So in order to try one last effort, I did mail it into a company the rebuilds hard drives in hope that they can rebuild it for use long enough to grab my precious data. This company is charging a pretty dime... so I best get busy, eh?

Terrible News...

I was traveling over the weekend, and after using my EHD in the morning....went to use it in the evening and NOTHING! After what I thought having an emotional weekend, I took my drive into the best Computer technicians here in Rochester. Well, they were able to recover nothing.

I am just a wreck right now and am feeling deflated. I have a name of a Computer Recovery company that can re-build hard drives in hopes to recover files, but the cost of this is $1,500-3000... And, even doing that there is no guarantee they could get the data off of the EHD. I know it is my own fault for not backing up. I just purchased this hard drive 3 months ago. Anyways... I'm sorry for boohoo-ing, I'm just so devastated!

So lesson for today: Be sure to BACK UP!!

I'm Back!!

Sigh. I feel all refreshed and relaxed!! It was such a nice trip! It was nice to get away... yet nice to be home!! One of the best things of our trip was getting Sophie back on the lake. For those of you who didn't know. Sophie went tubing last year, and had a bit of a shocker. When my little daredevil was on the tube, the tube got pulled underwater. My DH fell off the tube and my little Sophie girl hung on for dear life, getting dragged underwater for about 45 seconds. A lifetime for her. Its taken until now for her to get back on the tube after much coaxing.

So here she is!! (The camera was SO far away, so the pictures aren't the best) But you can see how timid she was to start. And she only wanted to go a little faster, just a bit at a time. HAHA!!

I'm so proud of my baby!!

Have a great week!!
