heed the warning. . .

nearly three weeks of computer issues have driven me a little crazy.
it was a short trip.

technology is such a blessing when everything is working right.
it can also send you to a near panic when things go awry. 
when our computer, modem & wireless got hit by lightning, i was really worried that we'd lost all our pictures. . . almost 3 years worth. 

i've lost a year of pictures before...you'd think i'd learn.
my dad has always told me, "save early, save often."
basically i'm a big ol' procrastinator and just haven't done it.
it just seemed too time consuming and mostly, i just put out the biggest fire.

praise Jesus from whom all blessings flow, the hard drive was intact.
we lost our logic board, whatever the heck that is, but we have our data.
i'm still trying to get all our files where they need to go....my brain hurts.
really, i'm not smart enough for all this computer techy mumbo jumbo.

i'm also currently uploading all 24,000 some odd photos onto shutterfly. 
i loaded 7,000ish last night and it says time remaining is 6 days...ha ha ha.

while we were waiting to hear back from the computer tech, i was praying hard that we would get our pictures back.
i cannot tell you how thankful i am.
they mean so much to me.

for example...the pictures from the day we brought ruby home from the hospital.
i so wanted those first pictures of her in her going home from the hospital dress.

i wanted to cry when i saw them.

 our little, tiny, two-day-old daughter in the dress i made just for her.

that was such a happy day.

oh those tiny little feetsies!!

so thankful to have these pictures of that precious day.
God is so lavish with us.
