Last week we went to my sister’s one night to celebrate my BIL’s birthday. Which meant I didn’t have to cook that night! WHOO HOO!
We had ice cream for desert and Sid would take a bite and make this really funny face and then laugh. So Ian also wanted to make a funny face for me to take a picture.
I am seriously about ready to break up with electronics!
I don’t get it, why are they out to ruin me?
First: my portable external hard drive jumps of my computer and refuses to be seen by said computer.
I finally get the computer to acknowledge it and the computer wants to reformat it. To which I said ‘no way!’ So I do a ‘scandisk’ check and leave it over night. Only to come back and find that it went from a NTFS drive to a RAW drive! What??
Second: I go to turn my computer on and it tells me my system file is corrupt and I need to re-install the OS. But as it turns out the hard drive won’t even spin, so it is kaput.
Third: (and this was today) my other external hard drive (not portable) is not getting power. After trying a different power cord I hear a clicking sound and no disk spinning.
Yes, yes. Everyone tells me that I needed to sign up for a cloud service, but right now I can’t afford the size that I need.
I guess I should be happy this happened after Ian’s party and I was able to make all his decorations, but now I can’t access the pictures (don’t worry they are still on my camera’s memory stick).
But this is really getting ridiculous.
I JUST WANT SOMETHING TO WORK!
OK. rant over, here is what I am hopefully going to be making for dinner this week.
The sun is shining here in my part of the world. It was a beautiful weekend and I am making huge progress on the decorations for Ian’s party.
His party is this coming Saturday, I can’t believe I have a four year-old! I still have lots and lots to do before then, so I am hoping to make some easy, simple dinners this week.
We make Birthday Cake Pancakes for the kids on their birthday. Because…welllll…it’s their birthday. And if you have tried them you would understand.
