Since that night it has been getting worse, my mac would crash every five minutes or so and it really was a nightmare. Eventually I came up with an idea to run a hardware test. It went perfectly smooth and at the end I was told there aren't any problems with the hardware. Then I tried the apple support site which wasn't much use to me. Then I decided to back up all my writing, photography and other stuff on disks and reinstall the whole thing, thinking maybe it was some non apple software clashing with something. I did so. It worked fine for a few hours and I decided to put my stuff back on. Only to discover that one of the DVDs (the one with my writing of course) doesn't work. Fortunately most of my stuff was previously backed up on CDs but all my recent works and photographs are gone for good. I felt devastated. Mac crashed again. I once more reinstalled everything yesterday. It crashed after a few hours. This morning I updated all the software and it seems to be running fine at the moment. Hopefully it won't crash again. This is my excuse for not writing sooner and for being miserable as I lost too much.
I had articles prepared, I had photographs and recipes waiting to be put on my blog, now it's all gone so I am starting from scratch again.
But I am not giving up, I am definitely not a giver upper. So there will be 'normal' posts soon. As long as my mac doesn't crash again.
To top it all of blogger thinks my other blog Carra's Bazaar is a scam! Brilliant. I have to wait until they check it! I also started thinking that Wings For Quills a blog that was supposed to be for all writing people (in Lithuanian or English) has not been updated for months, so I will be contacting my co-founder soon.
I am so behind with e-mails, posts, comments and other people's blogs it's depressing. It really is, but I'll get on top of it again, eventually.
And after all if Bazaar doesn't pick up eventually it will have to go too...
