Life's like that!

There I was....getting used to my new pc and functions, having to set new defaults etc. I had kept my emails 'as new', so as I could file them on my pc. So, I had spent quite a while making new folders and filing them. I then realised that 2 programmes weren't installed - MSN and Skype, so I re-installed them, only to be told that I had 'insufficient priveleges' - whatever that means. So, then I called the pc tech and he came over and spent one and half hours trying too! Nuffing! Once again, he took my new pc back to the hospital to inject more treatment to enable me to link up with family and friends.

When he returned with it, what I found is that the folders were missing which contained my latest emails! My new hard drive had been 'swept' and now I have lost all of my newly kept emails - as well as my hundreds that I kept for reference. Arrrgh! I HATE change when it means I don't get to choose whether I want to or not. I was told I cannot retrieve them.

I do have my 'old' hard drive but with only data on - photos and documents - not emails. Does anyone know if there is a way to retrieve my emails? I had sooo many with 'How to:', recipes, poems, quotes, links to my favourite blogs and more. Lots of thought promoting emails, emails from my family - grandchildren and friends that I wanted to keep - forever! I am now reluctant to file my emails into more new folders for fear of it happening again.....no trust in these 'wonder' machines!

Ok....let me pick up where I left off in a previous post. I tried to upload some pics to show but Blogger was playing up! Phew....give me a break...pleeeease.

This is a photo of one of my grandsons - He's just graduated from primary school and will be going to secondary in September - but....he is still only 10!! Bless him. He has done so well at school seeing that he lacks concentration.

Listen up and pay attention boy!

He made the hat at school and the scroll is a certificate.
We had a cake made for him....his favourite - fresh cream chocolate sponge sandwich. It was delicious.

His parents bought him a new watch....not that he needs a new watch! He collects objects d' art and has quite a collection of watches a la Dr Who but hey...it's well deserved.

So. I'm now hoping it's the end of my pc problems and that I shall be able to post more often according to time.

Toots for now.
