"Crash" course

So I've gotten a "crash" course, and I ephasize CRASH in keeping up on my scrapbooking or at least my blog history. This morning my dear old MAC book decided it didn't want to charge any more. Could be the power cord at could be something more. I personally think it's the power since it was charging then just stopped and wouldn't pick up the charger again. Now as the minutes quickly counted down I did my best to back up on the external hard drive. I successfully did that however all my pictures were gone…misteriously they were moved to some hidden portal that I can only access through finder. All I can say is I'm keeping my fingers crossed and vowing to do better now that all my memories may have escaped to an unknown world.
