M4:D53 (D353) Peaceful return

  

What's on my mind today?

Technology can be so frustrating.  Yes, I know, I am a Director of Technology so why am I complaining about tech?  Let me explain.

I do pictures and blog posts daily.  I use Windows Live Writer to write my posts.  I store all my posts and my pictures on my NAS (network storage) device.  A NAS is basically a hard drive that has an operating system that helps control the access to the files.  Well, last week my NAS crashed.  Thankfully I back up constantly, so I was not worried about my content. 

I got a new hard drive and installed it.  As I was working on my pictures and getting them in the side by side format that is used above, the NAS just froze.  As I diagnosed the problem I discovered that the new hard drive I had installed had failed.  Again, thank God for backups because I still had all my data stored away. 

I replaced the NAS hard drive yet again and got everything up and running.  However, that would not be the end of my problems.  Like the old man I've become lately, I changed the password on my laptop, but completely forgot what that password was.  This is a big problem because my laptop connects to a domain, so the password is cached on the drive.  Well, after much research on another machine, I was able to come up with a trick that helped me cache the correct password to my laptop.

Once logged back into my laptop I took the time to complete all my photos and catch up on all my posts.

So here I am again.  I am alive and well.  Thanks to Mike Groom: Aussie Bodybuilder for checking up on me a few times.  I've had a very good week as you no doubt can tell from my posts. I am still learning to deal with my 16 year old daughter's first boyfriend.  It is definitely an experience for all involved.  However, he is a very nice kid and I definitely approve of him so far.

Today was a rest day, but it wasn't extremely restful.  I had to assist the hockey team on the bench again.  That's a stressful job, but fun at the same time.

    Hey Mike, glad you've got everything sorted out. Hopefully we'll see some regular posts now.

    My daughter is 15 and I'm waiting for the boyfriend moment to arise! I reckon it's not far away
