A Lesson Learned ..........Again!!!

Just when you think everything is going along swimmingly a nice large spanner falls in the works and your mundane life seems to have come to a screeching halt all with the press of a button. Well I know that's a tad dramatic but it did seem like the bottom had fallen out of my world when only 20 minutes ago ....................... my laptop wouldn't come on!! I use my laptop all day every day, all my patterns I have created, my photo's, 6 months of work gone!! The drama!
The best bit is this happened before, about 6 months ago so I bought myself an external hard drive. I backed it up religiously every week for about a month, then completely forgot about it. Every now and then I would come across my hard drive sitting on the shelf and think, I need to do that, but funnily enough never got round to it.
Well let's hope this time it has finally sunk in about how important it is to back it up regularly. That way next time something like this happens I won't have to sweat bullets until my laptop comes back to life, I will be sitting back smuggly stroking my hardworking hard drive safe in the knowledge my life's work is safe! Fingers crossed!

My hero!
