As usual there always seems to be something going on. I have also decided to maintain a social life. Although that seems to make more work.

I have a good start on a fool proof backup strategy. Picture backups are going well. Also working on a strategy for trans-coding movies.

School starts soon for Christina. She is in first grade already. Wow, does time fly.

Christina's tone has been very bad. It may be the cause of the spots. We started Valium to help with the tone and it seems to be helping a lot. Christina has been in even better spirits than her cheery self.

Not much else going on. Still going over the IEP and getting frustrated.

Happy Birthday Christina!!!

Six years ago today, Christina came to walk with me on this journey.

Love you Christina!

The weather has not been understanding of my little garden. It has been a windy season so far and the hot weather has made it uncomfortable. The plants have a slight lean.

Christina has been well overall. A few bouts of fever and rash, but docs say nothing to worry about. Dad's worry, enough said.

Christina was full of kisses and wanted lots of cuddle time over Father's Day weekend. I enjoyed it a lot.

I have not been spending much time on the computer and trying to do more around the house and yard. Shelving may be the next project. I need shelves in the basement and kitchen. Not sure which to start with.

Pictures, pictures, pictures. I have been keeping up on pictures and have a good start on my backup solution. Hmm, reminder... BACKUP. Make sure you backup everything you want. And make sure you have three copies in two different locations and on different media.

That reminds me I should work on backing up the home movies today.

Cheers!!!

Enjoy a coffee and some good company.

Thank goodness for backups.

I had a hard drive fail. The drive had 1.85TB of data. All the pictures were backed up along with videos. I also found an old copy of the music and saved that. I did loose the movies that I had saved for watching on the network.

So BACKUP backup BACKUP!!!

The drive failure set me back on pictures and updating the slideshow. I should be back on track in a week or two.
