A dead computer.

Its like losing your external soul or having a stroke. All the things you reflexively relied on are gone and you have to rebuild all the memories and files.

L.J. Sorry you have to go through this!

Could be way worse. Most stuff on it I have saved on USBs. DH won’t let me use the same computer for online that has all my stuff. So I have use 2, one for online and one with stuff. The one with stuff is slow and ancient. The one for online is a windows10 Eeeee. I don’t have access to it yet so I’m cheating.

Hopefully tomorrow I can start doing my MOUNTAINS again!

Well, you can get a SSD (no moving parts) hard drive for under 50 bucks, and a CD caddy for about 20, refresh your computer and retrieve your information from the old HDD.
