I ~~ ' ~~ M BAAA - CK !!!!

YESSSSSS!  The computer works great; all the files and data was saved off the old drive and installed on the new hard drive and Hubby found it for me...  My Sailor story is SAVED and can resume tomorrow on schedule after a week of delay.

I have not been totally idle, I have some interesting pics for you today...

Newly Hatched Spiderlings! 

These tiny guys (and girls) graced the side paneling of my door not a few days ago. I'm sure the proud 'mom' was not far off. One or two did venture into the house but I think the majority are staying in the wall and door frame.

Just the tale end of May, on the first decently nice summery day we've had on the island, my cats were enjoying the warm sunshine as much as I was. 


Here is Winston watching Sassy roll on the warm, cracked paving.

And here is Sassy, still rolling on the paving with Winston walking past, Emerald is in front of the van doing the same as Sassy with a black barn cat looking on...

Here's a sequence of my cats and a black barn cat playing around the tree...

Sassy can't resist finding out what's going on
Hope you enjoyed these. Things will not get back to normal with the computer back on its desktop.

Computer Crash

Me on Friday...
I have to apologize to all of you for being away so long. Our computer crashed on Friday and Future Shop told us its due to a bad hard drive - our third so far.

My Computer phoning - "Is there a Doctor in the house?"
I hope to have it back tomorrow; they were able to download all our files, etc, off the old drive and install it on the new one so I won't be back to a time consuming square one when I finally get it home.

My Baby is Sick!!!
I will still have, I hope, the rest of my Sailor story as well. Among other things, I've had a great deal of hassle trying to back everything up. This, we are told, is a strong indication that the hard drive is about to fail completely.

Thanks to everyone for their patience. I am using our 'spare' computer, the one we had problems with before and had to actually send to Ontario to get fixed. We got it back a week later to find it didn't work???  Merrill took a look at it and nothing was connected on the inside! Go figure. Its been working ok but I have absolutely no files, no pictures, no story, no nothing in it.

Happy Computer = Happy Catspaw!
Once I get our regular computer back and check everything out, I will begin posting again. Here's to not having any more problems in the future once its fixed...

Happily reunited at long last...
