Digi Scrapping without a computer ;)

So this last weekend, I had the PLEASURE of meeting up with some gals in Park City to do some Scrapping! Oh, an entire weekend sans children, with nothing else to do but SCRAP! Ahhh..

So, We got up there Friday night. I laid out all my goodies, Laptop, external drive, I even brought my tablet incase the urge to design something struck.. Turned on my laptop, checked my email first ;) But my computer was so stinkin' slow! So I rebooted.

Oh.

My screen comes back on with a grey folder with a question mark.. It just flashes..

OMG.

We tried everything, rebooting, taking out the battery and rebooting, resetting the P-Ram, My friend was on her computer checking out all the tech support online (Thanks Bec!) NOTHING WORKED!!

I was starting to think I was the only person in the world that could break a Mac ;)
It is less than a year old!!

So, I had to deal with NOT having a computer while everyone else was happy scrapping.. (OUCH!!) And calling Tech support in the morning was NO BETTER.

Had to take it to the Apple Store. Turns out the hard drive DIED..

So, they juiced me back up, and now I have to install all my programs back on, and THANKFULLY! we had archived all the files on it! That would have hurt WAY WORSE!

I still had a great time with the girls. I couldn't scrap, so I did some retail therapy ;) Spent WAAAAY to much at the outlet stores! (how can you NOT splurge at Gap and Gymboree when it's outlet prices??, Seriously!)

And I really enjoyed just chatting with everyone. Hoping we can do it again in August! This time though, hoping I can actually scrap something ;)

Here is a photo of the girls ;)
