Somehow, I'm not surprised. Not even a little bit.
Note to Self: Back up, back up, BACK UP your stinkin' hard drive. Even if your computer is only 3 1/2 months old.
And dagnabbit, Self! Stop forgetting to use Photobucket or Flickr!!
**Had I been smarter and taken my own advice, this PSF would have been a little different. BUT the powers that be decided otherwise and the picture I was going to use today is floating around in the cyber afterlife. Sigh.

Oh great...your hard drive crashed after only 3.5 months. I better get on that. I have yet to do it....do you just use CD's? I'm clueless, obviously.
tell Gracie she already IS famous, she has tons of fans out there now, thanks to her momma. ;)
Whew hoo I am first!
I have lost all my photos before. My second childs baby pics. Boy was I upset!
She is famous already and she has a great future ahead!
I'm sorry about the pictures! I need to listen to my husband and back my pictures up.
Thanks for the reminder!
PS-I will post my PSF later after I put the kids in bed :)
i am one of her biggest fans...let her know for me OK?!?
J already thinks she is famous...since she is the main topic of our blog!
thanks for the reminder about the pics...i seriously need to take that advice myself!
♥ I love that picture!
excellent note to self and to the rest of us! we need to back up our systems. UGH!
cuteness!
and you are RAD! as always.
and yes this is a recycled photo story from this week. i should have saved it. darn.
Another great picture!! SO cute!
Sorry about the pictures being gone!! Love the one you did have though!!
Oh, she's so cute. I can totally see her being famous.....for something GOOD!
ugh - too many computer dramas for one lifetime - it's still a great pic and my PSF is up too!
This is such a sweet picture...I love it!
Nothing can make me mad faster than my computer! I have no idea how to back-up, but I upload all my pictures to Shutterfly so I'm hoping they're safe there.
Damn that harddrive!!!
Love the picture! and OF COURSE she wants to be famous someday, and I'm SURE she will be! NO doubt!! Love her!!
I find it hard to believe that you had a better picture than this one. It's perfect, and I'll bet she is famous some day.
Sometimes I'm afraid my kids will be famous too, just for all the wrong reasons.
It's a great picture! And, oh no! Didn't this just happen to MamaGeek? Going to back up now!
I have no doubt that she's got that star quality! Sometimes you just have to play it by ear! Vegas Baby! I'm soooo there!
ah - thanks for the reminder!!!
Cute picture anyway!!!
Great shot and even better reminder!
awesome photo, love it!
I think I will start saving her pictures too--so that I can say I knew her when......
LOVE all things Gracie! I can't WAIT to see how she claims her fame!
It's happened to me, too, courtesy of my darling daughter. I backed it up this time!
I love that photo! Gorgeous!
i think she already is famous :)
Beautiful little girl! She'd look great on the cover of a magazine! Great shot and post edit!
whew thank for reminding me to upload mu august photos. I really need to get an external hard drive.
I have a feeling she might be famous someday. It is a great photo.
Wow. What a gorgeous photo and a gorgeous girl. Beautiful!
Do you know I don't even know how to backup? Ack!
Beautiful girl and flowers!
Back that thang up. :)
awww.....unfortunately I understand what it's like to have precious memories floating around in the cyber afterlife.
I love the dimension. But, of course, being someone with severe allergies, I'm trying not to sneeze! She's beautiful.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE PHOTO OF YOURS.
EVER.
At least so far. Serious AWESOMENESS.
I lost a lot a few months ago, so I know that pain (and now backup to TWO media).
Oh that stinks about losing some of your pictures. I religiously load my pictures to my Costco account each time I take them off the camera.
And I totally bet she'll be famous one day!
Ack, how sad!!! But she's adorable, so all isn't lost....
Oh man I haven't backed things up for months. Got to do that. Thanks.
Beautiful girl. Beautiful dreams.
I don't know what you had in mind, but I love this picture. Great perspective and color.
I keep telling myself I need to do this. Here is my motivation. Thanks! Cute picture regardless. ;-)
OOooo, we learned the "back up your hard drive" lesson the hard way, too. We also learned that burning CDs isn't always a sure thing either. Try looking for online storage sites as well. There are several really good free ones.
The picture of your daughter is absolutely beautiful. I love the edge effect and the colours... awesome shot!
She is precious!
Thanks for the reminder to back-up my hard drive.
Sorry for the loss of your pictures!
See, now I'm behind. Sign. I am even more sick knowing you lost pictures. Work, well who cares about that. But pictures!!
Oh no! My husband got one of those Airport Extremes from Apple that wirelessly and automatically backs up your hard drive at regular intervals--they have different versions at different prices and it's soooo convenient!
Oh no! Definitely a difficult lesson to learn the hard way - and one I've been a victim of too. I hope that you can find a way to recover the lost photos.
I love this one though - oh yes, she definitely's going to be famous someday! :)
I think one day she could well end up on the cover of a magazine. Lovely photo Gracie.
If i'd a had a photo of my dear grandma I would have played along for tomorrow. Oh well.
But THANKS so much for the vote! You rock. I think I'll just sit here all night and watch the voting...I know. *LOSER*.
I wonder if Gracie realizes she's famous NOW? At least around the blogosphere.
And I absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, to the depths of my soul believe Gracie will be famous somewhere else one day, too. She's just that awesome.
She IS famous.
Re: the hard drive drama -- I always back up stuff - just in case.
That's terrible-- and my worst nightmare!!! The photo you have is gorgeous though. I need to look at your photos before I publish mine-- I'm slapping snapshots up everywhere and you have these works of art. sigh. Lovely PSF (and educational-- backing up NOW)
Cute shot! Oh and I hear you on the back-ups. I am researching an external drive as we speak!
My husband is a computer guy and he bought me an external hard drive. Snapfish and shutterfly are good free places to store pictures too. I am so sorry you lost some pictures. That is heartbreaking. I hope there is a cyber miracle and you get them back!!
She's a beauty! I can relate to the hard drive crash. Currently using my kids' laptop as mine joined yours in computer heaven.
My post is There's a snake on my foot!
Bummer about your hard drive! I should follow your advice! I do save a copy of all my photos in my snapfish account however I don't have all my writings backed up somewhere. I'm gonna get on it!
Great picture!
I'm sorry about your hard drive...that sucks!!!
That picture is adorable though...
xoxo
I LOVE THAT SHOT! And I totally believe that she will be famous.
And totally believe in backing up.... I leard the way, way, way hard way. Twice.
Yes... we lost some important photos once... my husband is diligent about keeping dvd's in the safe now!!
Lovely photo!!
Adorable picture! I love the yellow and the dark edging around the outside which draws your eye right to the flower and her smile. Maybe she'll be famous some day. :)
I love the angle of that shot. I'm going to cheat and post a second one because my post yesterday was a photo story too!
oh boy, that's a great reminder. Sorry you lost your photos!
Your daughter is beautiful!
Aww, what a gorgeous photo!
how pretty!
as for losing pictures. my littlest one accidentally broke my laptop screen I pulled my hard drive out put it in an enclosure and discovered that there are over 5000 photos missing now.
I'm so sorry you lost pictures. I need to get mine backed up as well because I'm flirting with over a year's worth. Stupid, no?
See, I have my pictures backed up in 3 spots. I've lost too much crap too many times!
Well, I think it's a fabulous photo! I got a hugely late start today. Look at the crowd over here! Hope you still have a chance to check my PSF out, I got a little artsy for ya!
That's a truly gorgeous shot!
I am so sorry. That's my worst nightmare.
And she has the look for famous. What a beautiful girl. (Of course she is, she has a beautiful mom)

Oh dear - about your hard drive! It sucks when that happens. I hope its no longer a problem now. And, Gracie is and will continue to be famous..No doubt in my mind!
This picture is beautiful! I can't imagine one better than that but your photography is phenomenal so I'm sure there was one even better! :)
What an awesome picture!
Sorry about your hard drive...I'm scared now. I need to do that.
That picture is beautiful! And thanks for the reminder about backing up...I need to do that!
For what it's worth, this one is still really cute.
Ps Are you and MamaGeek actually able to get to all of the people who participate in your PSF?? I just started a workshop on Wednesday and have a hard enough time getting to 30 people...80!?! How do you do it??

Oh sorry bout that! She is very cute in this picture though.
Oh, that just kills me. Did you really lose all your photos? I would die. Right there. Just die.
That blows about your hard drive! Bummer. Oh, that Gracie is just darling. Can she PLEASE come be friends with Lise? We need her. STAT.
Sorry to hear about your loss (of pictures that is...) This one is pretty darn cool though.
You have the most photogenic kids!
And I never back up my stuff ... I am BAD. Especially considering I would completely melt down if I lost stuff. MUST DO!
Love the picture and sorry about the hard drive!!Love the photo story idea and will be using.
I don't know what the picture was of but this one is fab.u.lous! I'm off to backup:)
Can you email me and remind me daily to backup my hard drive? I haven't done it in a few months, which just means disaster is looming.
I so love your images - espec this one with the yellow flowers - what a talent you are - great to find you - le
