Mac Oops!
I was planning to do our income tax today. I loaded the software and it immediately told me there were updates, so I downloaded them and began to install... at that point there was an OOPS!
After using the disc repair utility and doing everything else I knew to do, I was still getting nowhere I wanted to be. Finally, I bought and downloaded a new copy of DiskWarrior which is the industry standard for repairing Mac directories, files, etc. I ran the Warrior expecting it to vanquish bad bytes and whip my directories into tip top shape.
Sad story. The disk defeated the Warrior. I got the message that the corrected directory could not replace the old one because of a disk error. Bummer! Then I got the detailed report which said there were so many errors, the disk could not be repaired, period.
Well, I gave up and decided to take the thing into an Apple store Monday. I'm working on my laptop PC now, but I don't have tax software for it and all my files and data are on the Mac. Again, I say, BUMMER!
I prayed for my Mac and my brother didn't think God would be interested in something I could tend to myself albeit through a repair technician. I, of course, know better. God has heard and answered my prayers about all sorts of trivial stuff... including computer repair.
So, I covet your prayers for my Mac.
Also, pray for Baby Snooks, our bulldog who is missing Higgins and looks for him all over the house and yard. She goes out often and circles the house hoping to see her old friend of many years. I, too, forget he's gone and expect to see him. I find myself looking in his favorite sleeping spots to see if he's all right.
Well, I need to search for a church with earlier services tomorrow so Richard can attend because he has to leave for work before New Community lets out. So, we'll probably attend the Rock church tomorrow.
HAPPY EASTER!

My Sweet Bud,
I am so sorry about Higgins. Your losses have been great lately, but I have no doubt that our Lord is right there, holding your hand and comforting you with His Spirit...His Precious Holy Spirit. I love you and you are always gonna have a big chunk of my heart wherever you go, and boy, do you go! Take care my Friend!
