Crash!


We almost had a dire disaster with our computer! I can't imagine what it would be like not to be able to update my blog every day. Disappointing my readers would just be too horrible for me to fathom. Every time Linda tries to burn a copy of a CD, the computer goes wacky. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it freezes up the whole system. Today, it froze and would not unfreeze for anything. The CD tray was stuck shut, the system would not turn off and the "not responding" button would not go away. Linda had to push the power button and then... nothing.... a screen came on that said the computer was NOT able to restart, so sorry. PANIC! After figuring out how to run some diagnostic things and a lot of praying... she got to a "restore" screen and was able to restart before the bad crash happened. No more burning CD's for Linda. She'll have to rely on her trusty friends, namely Jerry :)
