Type+Writer 2 Starts Next Week!!

I wanted to redo the Type+Writer 1 layouts since they were all lost in the Hard Drive Wipe Out of 2009. And since Type+Writer 2 starts next week (Oct. 5th) what better time to brush up on my template, journaling and typography skills!   I'll probably combine TW2 layouts with my LOAD submissions (see right hand sidebar). October is going to be so much fun!!

Do Not Follow My Lead On This One!

I definitely don't recommend wiping out your hard drive!!  I have spent the last 2 days reorganizing, retagging and reliving one of the most regrettable things that I've ever done!  But it's coming along.  I've reinstalled photos, fonts, digital scrapbooking supplies, documents, more photos and 4.0 GB of files that my husband hasn't looked at since we transfered our files to this computer 3 years ago.  I can't say it enough times "Back up your files".  As it turns out I didn't have my entire Digital Scrapbooking file checked off to back up so I've lost 2 years worth of digital layouts that I'd been procrastinating getting printed!!  Still not too happy with myself but at least I'll never do that again!

Mozy, Mozy, Mozy!!!!!!!

I did the most ridiculously stupid thing this week and wiped out my hard drive!! It was completely my fault because I got impaitient while installing a new program and didn't read ahead. Blah, blah, blah...IDIOT!! Anyways, the purpose of this post isn't to berate myself, it is to praise MOZY!!! We have an external drive meant to be used to backup our photos, files, etc but the powercord was lost and I procrastinated replacing it. Finally, after reading about Mozy here I decided to just pay for it, make it easier on myself and backup our precious files. Mozy came through for us and I will forever sing their praises because I have my pictures and projects back and I'm happy once again!
