My Post Is Stuck in My Dead Computer!

by Melissa on September 21, 2012

I had a post written and saved on my laptop about how inspired we are to get gazelle intense again after listening to Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University.  We have started making some hard sacrifices because we want to dig out of this hole as fast as possible, and lately our intensity has been lacking.

However, my computer died before I could get the 900 word post up to the blog.  :(

Now, I am short on time and a little bit sick that my post is lost in the abyss of my dead computer.  I will rewrite it, but I can’t do it on the fly.  Look for the post some time next week.

Have you lost important documents when your computer died, or do you do like your supposed to do and always back up?  (Lesson learned for me.)

I keep my posts in wordpress so if that happens I still have a draft on the internet… hopefully that never fails.

I usually do that and thought I had, but it wasn’t there. :( Oh well, I rewrote it as Monday’s post.

I had a similar experience – but we were afraid we’d lose pictures of our kids (the only digital copies we had!), not documents. We took the dead CPU to a pro, and he rescued the images.

I am hoping to find someone to revive my computer on the cheap. Maybe then my son could use it. Glad you got your pictures back. It would be awful to lose those!
