On hold

Consider these the visual equivalent of the music you hear on the phone when someone puts you on hold:
(Camelia photos taken outside our church last Sabbath.)

My computer visited the ER today, and while it seems to have made a quick recovery, I'm not taking any chances. A back-up is in progress which means no downloading of the lamb photos and video I shot today. As soon as the back-up is done, a client's job is top priority. After that I can breathe - if I can stop hyperventilating over the price of a new laptop. :-/

That's it for now from . . .

    Oh much better than the canned music on hold. Bummer on the computer. Hope it was only a small blip and all will stay right for a long time

      Thanks, Theresa, but considering that my laptop is six or seven years old now, its probably nearing its expiration date.

    Such perfection! What beautiful flowers! I don't even dare LOOK at a new laptop - they are incredibly expensive, but, sigh, necessary.

    That's a bad feeling, waiting. Hope all is well.

      My computer recovered temporarily (allowing me to do a backup), had another psycho episode, recovered enough to do the hospital's employee newsletter, and is still working - for now. But I bit the bullet and a new (refurbished) MacBook Pro is on its way, along with CS5.5. The Lord is good; thanks to my sister I learned about factory-refurbished computers and the fact that homeschoolers qualify for the education discount, saving me money on both purchases (buying CS5.5 with the education discount cost less than upgrading my CS2!).
