Please Don't Call BPS!!!!

BPS=Blog Protective Services...

I didn't mean to neglect my blog! Honest. Our computer has been acting up. Instead of going into a power save screen, it will often just shut down and then will take forever to boot back up! So, the last week or so, I have been afraid to upload pictures and worry that in the middle of it, the computer would go down.

Then, the other day, Matt bought us an external hard drive to back up all of our files including all of our pictures which take up too much memory for an average flash drive! So, I now feel a little safer getting on the computer and not worrying about what will happen if I walk away for a minute or two. Ultimately, I would like a new computer, but that is not in the cards right now!

Luckily, my iPhone has kept me in touch with the internet world via email, Facebook, and Twitter. However, blog reading and commenting have been more difficult.

So, honest, this was not an intentional hiatus. I plan to post a few blogs and pre-post them to go up over the next few days.

It was comforting to get emails from several of you loyal readers to check on me! I am here, but but if in the next few weeks, you don't hear from me....just remember this post as my excuse!!!

I was wondering... DIdn't seem like you, but I have been in the exact same spot. Have you found an iphone app to blog with? I really like blogpress.

If we call them on you we have to call them on me too...we all have our "times" that it just isn't happening!

I was wondering if my reader was broken...

Good for you guys backing up your computer... When you get online again (and visit me), you'll see just how important it is to back up your files.
