When the last computer crash happened, I joined a 'Cloud' group. I could store my "stuff" off line - in a safe place. When the hardware crashed, I would be able to access my data.
Well., yes this is true. What I didn't know in my Polly Anna state was that it would take hours. It's kinda like losing weight. It took a long time to put it on (which is really not so much my case - I can gain a lot of weight in a very short time), so it will take a long time to take it off. To translate this into this situation: it took a long time to gather and save this data, it will take a long time to put it back after a crash.
I have the Dell upstairs, like I intended. What is killing me is putting the designs back on it. I am getting there, but I want to reload things that are on the SMALL external drive onto it. Notice I said small. I don't know what will happen if I decide to go to the big one.
Oh - what happened with the cloud. That takes forever and a day. Downloading from the cloud is tedious at best. I did get some down, and really it is comforting to know that it is there and safe. If I need to spend the time and effort, I can do it. I just don't want to right now.

Today's wonderful activity was to visit the vampire lab. I have four appointments this month - two of them require blood work. One is especially important. This is the time for the check up with Dr Poison. I really want to know the CA25.27 number. That is the breast cancer marker, and I am always worried about that number. I am a seven year survivor. That, in itself, is good. But it seems that the villain of breast cancer always comes back. G reads the obits, and there is usually someone who has died after an "x" year battle with breast cancer. So...

I am realizing I am a spoiled brat. Krissi has me so spoiled by calling everyday. I knew it meant a lot from me, but gosh just because she is having a great time in California ... See? I wondered why she didn't call on Monday. I thought she was ticked off that Brian and Christina had given me those flowers - she does things like that. Then she posted pictures on Facebook. They visited The Golden Gate Bridge.
She didn't call yesterday, and so far nothing has come on Facebook - but I haven't gotten there yet. There were pictures from the polo swim club - I think they went to see the Redwoods.
I just miss talking to her. Spoiled!
So that's what's up around here. I just don't see how I can stand this exciting life.

I tried a back-up one time, on my old computer--after 36 hours, it was still downloading. I just gave up.
