Computer Fix

Yay!! I have the desktop back. We still aren't sure what happened. Apparently we had a surge protector on the outlet that the computer was plugged into. So the guy that fixed it doesn't think it was the power outage that made it fritz. The only thing they could find wrong with it was the hard drive had lost its letter. So when the computer went to open the hard drive it didn't know where it was going. S described it as the Boot Manager went down the hall to get the files from the hard drive and couldn't find it. So it then freaked out and dumped everything. Thankfully, we were able to copy the pictures off the hard drive. However, it copied everything!! So we have about 60,000 pictures to sort through. Everything that was on the computer and that was ever emailed to us is on there. So all of those cute forwards with all the pretty scenery and animals that people send around we have to sort those out. As well as some websites that downloaded pictures . It's insane the things that got stored on there. But at least we have some wedding and baby pictures. We did lose the video however; S thinks the originals may still be on the camera and phones though so we will see. I wish I had the camera at the moment as A is has put my pants on and is trying to figure out how to button and tie them they are up to her arm pits and the legs are all bunched up so her toes stick out the end of them. Anyways, back to the computer. We are still trying to get it set up again but hopefully I will be back to blogging and posting pictures regularly. Now she has decided to wear "daddy's sock" and shoes. I really need the camera!!!
