I know I have alot to say these past few days. I usually post every week but I guess I just have alot on my mind right now:)
So I have been dealing with a computer that just up and shuts off on me about every 10 minutes...I sometimes get away with 30 minutes and I am seriously jumping for joy. Then Max said "Linds, I dont know much about computers but dont we need a hard drive to back everything up?" So I was like yes you are compltetely right and with all my pictures on my computer I dont know what I was thinking not having one in the first place. I am just lucky that my computer didn't just seize up and I could've lost everything. Sooooo I got the hard drive and did all the backups and it feels so good. It wasn't an easy process for me considering it was a lot for my lovely computer to handle so it would shut off every 10 minutes so I would have to come in restart and get everything going again...errrrggghhh! So it seriously took me 2 whole days.
Conclusion: my computer was shutting down because it had too much on there for the memory it could hold, which I knew from the very beginning but for some reason just dealt with it by restarting it instead of fixing the problem. So I did this not only to save my precious items but so I could delete them off my computer so it will feel better! I seriously feel like my computer is sick...hahaha.
So to put a picture to this story of why it was shutting down....um I only had to transfer 49,600 files and pictures onto my external hard drive! So when I tell you I am a picture freak I mean it, and the worst part is I could have 10 of the same picture and cant bring myself to let it go! YIKES

How funny! I'm the same way. I still haven't backed up. What kind of hard drive did you get? I've been thinking about it for the same reason. I have MILLIONS of pictures on here too. Our computer blacks out a couple times a day. Don't ask me why I'm still dealing with it. :)
