things lost / fresh starts


T- iphone / L- iphone

I think I've lost what little following I had, but I don't blame you... there's been nothing to follow here. But I do have a little bit of an explanation. My computer went down over a month ago and with everything else that was going on (graduation, wedding planning, apartment searches, over-time at work, festival preparations, etc) I just didn't want the stress of dealing with it, or thinking its ultimate doom . So it sat. It's empty black screen sat right there until this past weekend when I finally took it to PeachMac. They called yesterday with the sad news – the hard drive is dead and they can't retrieve anything from it. And even more sad is the fact that I wasn't good about regular backups. You all know what that means... lots and lots, and lots, of photos are gone... forever. Luckily many of my photos are on flickr and FB - thank goodness!
So here I am sneaking in a little post at work just so you know that I still exist... along with bunny and daisy and taylor and evee and kodi — we're all here. I hope you all have been well and are enjoying the transition out of summer into fall – summer vacations past and holidays ahead.
I hope to be back soon with a new hard drive and fresh start in my computer world and more news of the fresh starts in our lives.

It's odd how heartbreaking the loss of a computer can be. We get so attached. Or, at least I do. I guess it's really about the contents, which isn't odd at all. Still, I've missed you.

The photos on the left are taken by me, Leslye, the mother. The photos on the right are taken by my daughter, Taylor – unless otherwise noted. Comments are always welcome. thanks
If you care to visit, I, Leslye, have another blog - AutumnSun where I ramble around different paths and pleasures of my own.
