Day 268

Sad, very sad news! My computer had the "blue screen of death" and died. The hard drive crashed. We are buying a new hard drive and my wonderful nephew will fix things for us, but it will be next week sometime before we get it back. My biggest wish is that he can recover my pictures. I have 1000's and 1000's. Until we get the computer fixed and back....no 365 view. That also means minimal anything computer. Just what I can check on my phone. I'm going to miss this!!
