behind as usual~

i'm running behind...
behind in 
blogging,
 gardening, 
knitting,
emails,
laundry,
and the list goes
on
and
on
and
on
throw that together with
a new computer that has an
external hard drive hanging off the side (temporary)
that contains 
the brains of my old computer
(back up your computer people!!!)

old....in computer terms that is
my computer wasn't even three years old
and the processor bit the dust
heaving me into the likes
of not having backed up 
all my pictures, recipes, addresses,...basically my life for the past three years
and the lives of my family
thanks HP!

What fun you all had...I am still smiling at all of the happy activities. How did Abby guess so close, being only one off, wow!?

It is so good to see you sharing like this. - Hubby tells me our computer at the Little House is acting up, I think it's only 2 years old..ugh. I laughed when you said "Back up your computer people". We use Carbonite, hope we never have to use it.

Have a great rest of the week. xo
