Truth can be dreams: Wow what a nutty two weeks

Wow what a nutty two weeks

So our computer totally crashed over two weeks ago. LOOOOONG story short the hard drive is trash which means we lost a bunch of information. The most important being pictures and video. I am so sad when I think about it I start to tear. It's the video I care most about. I was always taking short videos of the kids dancing or singing or whatever. They where able to retrieve some of the pictures but hardly any, don't get me wrong I am thrilled about the ones they got but there are so many more.....Christmas, silver singing at his Christmas concert, birthdays, trips to the zoo. (long pause)

Well we bought a used Apple from a store at the UofW. Ryan was really needing to do his homework (which includes a lot of internet stuff) so we just bit the bullet and got it. I think it was a good purchase. It seems like a solid computer. I can't believe how dependent we are on computers! Crazy.

I had a couple of my sisters visit me this past weekend and I am on my way to Thunder Bay for a good friends wedding this weekend. The kids are doing really good. Silver is liking school although not as much as last year. He has clung to me a bit more when we are walking there. The other morning he hugged me and said "Don't leave me Mommie". He wasn't crying or anything. I think he just wanted a big hug and some encouragement. It was really hard for me to tell him he needed to go to school since I never really enjoyed it and I see a lot of me in him.

If any of you who are reading this have ever received pictures or video from me through email if you could email copies to me that would be great. It could be something I don't have. Thanks!

I feel for you guys. Pictures, and in your case videos too, just can't be replaced.

I hope your Apple is a reliable device.
