Getting the Tools Back in Place
Blogging posts have been light lately. A lot has been due to a brand new baby. But a lot also has been due to losing all of my blogging tools. The last time I sent my laptop in for service to repair a crack in the case, they replaced the hard drive. I hadn't thought to back up the hard drive as I didn't have any problems with the drive. Mistake #1. It was replaced anyways.
I had my news aggregator with all of my feeds and all of the blogging software on my laptop. I purposely hadn't loaded it to my desktop, because I didn't want to blog during business hours. Mistake #2. Oops.
The laptop's screen has been flickering. I believe that the ribbon cable connecting the screen to the laptop is loose and needs to be re-seated. Anyways, I am backed up now. We'll see what we get back.
I'm currently working on getting my newsfeeds back up on the MacBook Pro and also making certain the MarsEdit works.
I also upgraded my Treo phone a few months ago and put most of the pre-sets that didn't transfer in place. This afternoon, I worked on getting the Treo to auto-dial Speak-Write and automatically log in and start a new message.
It takes time and effort, but it feels good getting the tools back in place.
