Double bother
Hi everybody, it's so good to be back among the waves :-) I realize probably no one missed me as I rarely post but I missed every single one of you and your diverse posts. This year that just ended was a pretty crappy one for a lot of reasons I will put in another post but since I think this is my first entry this year I want to wish you a Happy New Year, better late than never ,no?
So to cut a long story short somehow my computer went up the creek, we were left with no internet for a week , which was bad enough , but worse ( and probably unrelated to the internet loss) I've lost all of my files and documents and photos . Now the puzzling thing it that I don't seem to have gained any extra disk space so where did they go? I know I didn't erase them , does any one have any sugestion or ideas of how to get them back ? Mine and minijc2's user settings have gone , I mean our names are still there but when we click the screen just goes blue with very generic programs while minijc1 and 3 users are fine as far as I can see, their programs and files are all there. If any of you more computer savvy could suggest something I would be very grateful.
Finally and to put things in perspective, I went today to a 24 year old's funeral. He went to bed with a simple headache, next day he was airlifted to hospital and the day after he was dead, a victim of meningitis. Just like that. It makes you realize how fragile and precious life is. Love everyone around you, or let them go, life is just too short and valuable to be wasted .
