I hope everyone had a Happy Easter!
We suffered a minor little catastrophe in my house. Saturday night, I accidently spilled an entire glass of water all over the keyboard of my laptop. Not cool. The next morning I couldn't get it to turn at first. Once I did, my keystrokes were so wacky. Sometimes capital letters would come out, other times lower case. Then throughout the day I couldn't get it to turn on and stay on. I have so many files on that little guy! Files AND pictures! Did I panic?
Ummm....YES!!
Not only was I worried about losing my files and pictures, but I do soooo much on my little laptop. It scared me to think that I would be off this week without my laptop!
Luckily I had backed up a lot of my files on Dropbox. Do you use Dropbox? I used to be the kind of gal who backed my files up onto flashdrives, but then would be so worried that I would lose the the flashdrive itself. Then I used Google Docs for awhile, which I still do. But I find that Dropbox is easier to organize. You can access your documents from any computer with internet service and can download something right to your desktop.
Yesterday I ran out and bought myself a new laptop. Between Dropbox and sharing between homegroups in Windows 7, I was able to save everything! YAY!!
My lessons learned:
~ Back EVERYTHING up! (Do you? If so, how?)
~ When I am eating or drinking, my laptop will be nowhere near me!
Finally, just wanted to share a pic I made through Instagram.
My little lady makes everything in my world all better!
Ummm....YES!!

Hopefully today will be much less stressful in our house!!
