Someone, who shall remain nameless, 'upgraded' the computer this weekend.
I think we all know where this is heading, don't we?
Someone has now abandoned the non-functioning domestic IT situation and departed on a business trip.

There are mutinous rumblings at home. I shall look at my flowers and rise above it. Unless, of course, he didn't back up my photos properly beforehand, in which case I may be compelled to join the angry mob.
umm ! and ahhh! loving the flower anyway ;-)

That's happened round here too - deeply frustrating. Good luck with the rising above it and hope business trip is a short one!

Perhaps, if all else fails, you could look at pictures of fluffy little kittens? ;-(

This is where a smartphone saves the day.
What is that rose called? It is gorgeous.

argh......
he better bring you home a nice gift.
backing up photos is something I have panic attacks about, I tried at the weekend to back some up onto dropbox, it told me it would take 33 hours and then I ran out of space....

Computers. Can't live with them, can't live without them. Sending good backup thoughts your way....

Oh dear. 'Upgrades' here always go the same way. Toys out of pram, mucho wine consumed and new chums in Bangalore...

I tend to avoid upgrades, they're scary, dangerous things! But at least I have an IT savvy son who doesn't go on business trips, to compensate for (mop up after?) the IT savvy husband who does.
Gorgeous flower :D

Oh dear. Anything odd on the computer brings me to a complete standstill, it's so frustrating. Hope it is all sorted to your satisfaction soon! In the meantime, have a lovely weekend.
