My Baby Is BACK!!!

Finally! 

I got our computer back yesterday and have been busily downloading our programs back into the hard drive. 

Then I've found all our backup files from the old hard drive and put them into the new documents where I can access them easier. After that, I've had to log into all our emails and save the passwords and such for easier log ins. I've found important documents and files and put them where I can find and print them off. 

My Sailor story is now a  safely printed hard copy and soon other docs will follow that route and be safely filed in the 'real' world. I just have to do my own portable disk back up of everything and update windows, etc, etc.

The computer is working well and fast, I deleted the antivirus they put in and downloaded Norton. Its the only protection system I have ever used and for good reason, its the best! Yes, I ran my scans immediately after, yesterday yet. 

Future Shop must have been extraordinarily busy ~ I found Geek Squad on my computer when I first booted it and had to find my way out of this maze to open Windows. No wonder it took eleven days! But I'd prefer quality work than anything else, especially when it comes to my baby. Through two crashes, one on top of the other, they were able to save all my files!!! Now, that's a feat.

Is this familiar to anybody out there??

Computer Update and New Blogs

I'm sure you all know what this is like...

No, I'm not back yet but I will be picking up the computer today. In the meantime, I'm working on some blogs concerning feral cats that I hope will be both informative and inspiring. 

Welcome to MY World!

Come on, I know you've had days, perhaps weeks and months like this!!!




Just admit it.

Thank you all for weathering the computer storm with me. 

Lets hope for no more Crashed Hard Drives this time

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.

Baby Spiders residing in the door frame. Looks roomy in there!

 

 

 

 

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...

 Winston sneaks through one side, while...

the barn cat peers around the bush!

Winston and the black cat playing hide and seek!

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.
