Back it up!

If you're reading this post, you're at least semi-computer literate and there's a good chance you have precious photos stored on your computer. If you keep up with Lora's blog, you may have already read that her house was broken into this week while she's in Italy. Of most important things, they took her computer. In all of her artsy-ness, she's also a photographer with photos stored, guess where? Her computer! I HATE that someone had the audacity to intrude upon her space and take her things. But, it opened my eyes! I do worry about lightning striking my 'puter or the kids spilling drinks on it, but in the grand scheme, my photos could probably be recovered from some accident like that. If my hard drive were GONE, though, so would be any chance of recovering my precious memories. So here's your techie tidbit: back up your hard drive and keep it in a safe place! You never know where or when the next bandit may strike! Also, please pray that they find Lora's 'puter before her hard drive is destroyed.
