    Soo, as some of you might have seen in the Chatty thread earlier this week- my kiddos killed my computer on Friday by dousing it in liquid refreshment.

    The good news I am getting it fixed - I had hoped to get it back today, but they guy just called and said it won't be ready until this weekend or even possibly Monday.

    Now, I had this week's Muse all ready, but ALL of my images are on that computer, and while I have a small one to work on, it does NOT have Photoshop or any other image program, nor can it run one ( it is SOOOO OLD, LOL).

    So my question is this!

    Do you want me to go ahead and create a brief post outlining what I was thinking, then "FIX" it - add in the text and images that I already had worked up when my computer comes home? (ya'll, there really was so much eye-candy and inspiration - I kid you not !!!)

    or

    Should I just wait and post it this weekend?

    I really want to hear what you guys think!

    and if you have not already 1. put a lid on your cup and 2. back up right now!! :)

    Hope your Thursday is wonderful!

    Back in 2016 I poured bulletproof tea onto my laptop keyboard. It sizzled and popped and went black. I bought a new laptop that arrived the next day. I called a few service techs hoping to salvage anything. They said I probably fried the mother board but not the hard drive. So I bought a universal device from Amazon for around $30 that allowed me to transfer my old hard drive over to the new laptop. All it took was a YouTube video that explained how to remove the hard drive from my fried laptop. Good luck!

    Hope you're up and running quickly. So sorry for the accident.

    I'm selfish, so would love to see a quick outline. I'm leaving town this weekend for almost a week. But I will TRY to be patient if the others just want to wait. Mostly, what we need is what's best for you (not me!).

    It sounds like you want to wait. Like Sharron, I love these, so am ready whenever. We can wait...it's not a problem.

    I NEVER allow food or drink near my computer! I've been checking all week for MM. Thanks for letting us know what is going on. I HATE IT when we are kept in the dark - waiting! That said, I can wait until the week end now that I know I have not missed anything. GOOD LUCK.

    So considerate of you to ask. This isn't life changing or threatening- MM, that is. We can wait. I've lost a desktop and hubster fried his laptop same as yours- its frustrating. Makes one appreciate what you have when you do have it!

    I'm so glad you're going to be able to get your laptop fixed, Erin!! I'm happy with whatever you and others decide to do. I can go either way.

    I’m good with waiting. I feel for you, we are so dependent on our computers being without is really tough! Hope recovery goes well.

    How about an update on the Monthly Muse! I thought it was to be posted this past weekend.

    I was hoping to get my pretty images for everyone, but apparently my computer needed a specific something that is taking longer than originally planned to arrive - so since I still don't have a computer I went ahead and posted something - it should be up now.
