I’m home!
Posted on July 31, 2007
We had a very good flight. I thought Squidge was going to be a terror but she was good. I’m home and I’m exhausted and should be in bed but instead I’m here drinking gin and tonics. I’ll post more tomorrow!
Holiday

I’ve been having some major issues w/ my parent’s computer. I finally had the O/S reloaded. I’ve lost all the photos I had taken prior to my move to the UK in 2005. I’m very very sad about this. I MUST remember to backup all the photos I have taken of Boo. At last count I had over 5,000. If I lose those I’ll be devastated. Onto happier crafting news. I have TONS of fabric, most of it vintage. Thanks to my Mom, Aunt Lily, grandmother and various friends of my mothers. Also I scored a very cool stash of vintage buttons. I’m so looking forward to getting home to sort through it all.
Oh and I can’t wait to get home so I can check out my little package from Janet Clare– a notebook cover. I can’t wait to see it and post photos of it.
Well I’m just glad I’m finally able to post from this computer. I’m on my way home on Monday night and will be arriving in Manchester Tuesday morning. I’m ready to go home but I’m going to miss my family terribly.
Defeated

So I finally took my fathers computer in to be seen by an expert. The more I tried to fix it and clean it up the worse the problems became. It got to the point last night when things stated to disappear. So this morning I gave in and finally had the OS reloaded. I asked that the pictures be backed up but when they went in to the folders there wasn’t anything in them. It made me sick to my stomach. ALL my photos prior to my move to the UK are gone. This computer was my computer. Before I moved to the UK I bought a laptop and downloaded all my photos onto it. As some of you will remember that one was stolen but I didn’t mind (well I did mind A LOT) because at least I still had the photos on this computer. Now they’re gone– forever– and I’m sooo very sad about it.
