You don’t know how much you use it until you lose it. Suddenly I can’t answer emails from customers, do my blog, or print seed packet labels. Eeek, and my computer guy said my hard drive is shot, with all my files too. Yep, I should have backed stuff up. No, I didn’t. Bad me. I tried to buy another desktop at Walmart, but they don’t carry them anymore! I hate laptops! I’m using Will’s now. Our friend, Sherri, had it as she does our book work and was entering orders from Seed Treasures customers. With no other choice, I went to get it. I came home and tried to order a new desktop from Amazon but had forgotten my password. Nothing we did would work; phones, emails, etc. Double eeek! Whew, what a day!
Anyway, back to homesteading. Yesterday, Dara and Sherri again came to pack up seeds with us. Then Will went down to the cow yard and found a brand-new heifer calf! He’d been expecting that calf for weeks, but nothing happened. Luckily, it was a nice warm afternoon and the heifer had her baby on a nice big hay pile. Perfect! — Jackie
Oh Know! nothing backed up:( sounds familiar. we get so used to electronic storage, mail, internet )that we are instantly thrown! when it happens. I still do my accounts on paper, never trusted m husbands file system,. hope Wills computer has some of your files. i too hate theses lap tops. congratulations on a healthy heifer! thank goodness temps are more pleasant for calving. such a frustrating time for you. at least you have your starts sprouting around the wood stove :) just finished getting my tomato s and one last pepper i d forgot. starting these all in the recommended peat pots. looking forward to no dampening of or fungus!( that seem to plague me )
praying for a better week ahead for you. take care
