Computer crash...

I'm not sure how my theme post snowflakes came up this week over at the wednesday stamper, but thank you so much to the one that helped me out.

I've had my fair share of computer mishaps this winter, first my stolen email and then my computer crashed last week... I couldn't believe it!! I finally got back online last night when my new laptop was installed and my internetconnection was back up and running. You should think I had internet access at work, but I don't. You see we run a franchise supermarket and the company controlling our computersystems, has a very restrictive internet access policy, so I've been completely cut off for a week, but thankfully now I'm back online and very grateful to see my snowflake theme is up an running even though I've been unable to get it  posted, sorry.


I hadn't done a backup since summer and have lost most my digital collagesheets and quite a lot of collageimages and scans, but what to do :)  At least it finally came in handy that I've been too busy to post much this autumn and winter :) Wishing you all a wonderful week.
Hugs and appologies for not beeing around much lately,
Linda

  6. That was so terrible Linda!It is a pity you lost some of your files.Next time try to backup you files because it is safer having backups.There are very many ways or devices one can use for backups.Online backups are also available and they are very many forexample there is Mozy,Carbonite,Safecopy,SugarSync all these help in data security.Hope you will not forget to backup next time.Wish you all the best

  9. luckily you had drafted the post!! i just published it, so no worries. hope you'll be able to sit down at your art table after the holidays when things calm down a bit. i also have a new temporary email addy. cannot access yahoo for now.
    my pc at work also blocks a lot of sites and things, tight security settings, so i totally understand and know what you've been thru. hope you're enjoying your new laptop! hope you got my mails this time round.
    may you have cheerful happy holidays and the best wishes for the new year
