Today is Friday!!

My dear husband arrived home from Bear Lake safely last night close to midnight.  I waited up for him.  He called several times to let me know it was snowing and there was black ice on the roads, at one point he had to drive about 20 miles per hour on the freeway  the roads were so bad for over 30 miles.  I was so glad to see him walk in the door!  He safely arrived home!!  What a sigh of relief!  This morning we have a time share appointment at 11:00 am to go to, so I've got to beautify myself for the day, it takes more time than I would like to spend.  Last night I reviewed where I have left off in my process of creating family picture books and updating my journal entries.  I had several years of my Journals I had not printed out.  Just storing on my computer.  Well when I accidentally deleted all my document files this took all my journals.  I've been sick about it since fall and trying to recover what I could.  Having our computer specialist work on the hard drive, I was only able to retrieve journal years 2009 and 2010.  That is all!!  I had saved all my journals on the computer since the 90's.  I had printed them all out, expect the last five years.  I had started adding pictures to my journal entries and needed color ink in my printer in order to print them.  I was slowly working on it in the fall.  I had luckily printed out 2013 up to September, just before I made this huge mistake!!  In going thru my journals,  I have completely lost all of the year 2012.  Which I'm really sad about, but I do have a digital picture book I have made of the year 2012.  So not all is lost!!  My computer is acting up again!!  So Allan says we need to just clear everything off and reboot my entire computer.  I have very few documents on the computer now, but tons of pictures which I do not want to lose.  I have been working faithfully since fall to email my pictures by year to Costso to make  DVD copies that are to last 100 years.  This has been a huge project for me; I have collected over 15,000 pictures that are on my Mac laptop and I have many pictures on my HP that I have scanned and put in family files for the future family books I want to make by year.  So I need to combine the scan pictures with my photo's by year on my Mac laptop and get them all emailed over and saved on a gold DVD.  I have made lots of progress.  Today I'm going to focus on the year 2009, which  was a  huge family event year.  I'm so happy that I was able to retrieve this journal year.  I need to proof read it and then get it printed out.  This will be my project for several days.  Stick to my task and get it done.  I've got to just stay focus on one project at a time.  I'm bouncing around on to many projects right now.  My life history projects are going to have to be pushed back until I can clean up my photo files and journals.  The year 2009 is the focus for now!!
