Mood:  incredulous

Last night ~ ummm ~ this morning, I was very upset. Not only had my laptop crashed for the second time in the past 5 months, but I had missed my midnight deadline for posting something on my blog. I was trying to write something on Families Again every day for a year. I had made it over four months, but, alas, in all my anger and rushing around to remedy my situation, I forgot to watch the time and post something.

Well, as the Bible says, Joy comes in the mourning. I know, this is taken a lot out of context, but I do believe God does bless even in small circumstances like this.

Yesterday I posted something on the TOS Homeschool Crew forum about my laptop crashing plight. One of my crew mates, Michelle, said that she had the same problem and used a special free, downloadable program to recovery most of the things from her hard drive. My ears perked up immediately. I had lost so many things that are important to our homeschooling, to me and the crew, to our ministry, to our personal life. If I could recover them, it would be a joy. So, I downloaded the program and tried it...

It Worked!

I have regained not only all that I wanted from my most recent hard drive, but also from the first hard drive that crashed. It was wonderful and easy. What is this miracle program? It's a great program from Ubuntu don't ask me what it means, but here's the address -

Check it out, and thank you Michelle!
