Does anyone have any great suggestions as to saving photographs from the computer ? I need an external hard drive I guess. There are so many photos here!
I'll get to blogging soon enough but until then have a great day everyone!
The photo is last Autumn at Patoka Lake. I love thsi time of year!
Be Thankful
By Author Unknown
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

3 of my grand daughters. I'm sure thankful for my family!


I love the poem you chose to share, Cheryl! I try each day to be thankful, even for the troubles.
ReplyDeleteWe have used Carbonite as our backup, for several years now, and love, love, love it. It has some cost, Cheryl, but has saved us so many times! Even when you get a new computer, everything from your old one is backed up and ready to download. Once you get it, you never have to worry about a backup again, because it happens automatically. External drives can crash, too. Here is the link: http://www.carbonite.com
I am not sure what you need to back up, but if it is pictures, why dont you periodically put them on CD's....does your computer have a program to burn CD's. I have a plastic bin for each grandchild, family events such as T.giving and Christmas, etc., and have burned a CD and put in the bin. I have told them that when I die, they need to come get their bins with all the "growing up" pictures on them. I dont keep financial papers or wills or anything like that on my computer, but you can put just about anything you want on CD's too. Love your pictures and the poem....love this season.
ReplyDeleteI bought an external hard drive and the real special photos I have transferred onto CD's.
ReplyDeleteI love the the poem! And the picture of your granddaugters made me smile! So cute!
