More blessings

I'm also thankful for technologically savvy uncles! After I got home from a stressful end of the weekend break down (the period between a car breakdown and the call from the mechanic is one of the most stressful experiences!! I am not familiar with cars at all so unless it needs oil, more pressure in the tires or gas in the tank.... I'm pretty stupid when it comes to cars.) I discovered the photos on my camera's memory card were all corrupt. My heart sank to the floor. Could my day get any worse? I prayed about it that night and the next morning my uncle suggested I try a card recovery software.

For all I knew these photos were gone forever. When I inserted the card back into the reader it said there were no files on the card. When I inserted it into the camera... it said 'no image.' I used a photo recovery software (I was a doubting Thomas and thought 'there's no way this will work, these photos are gone.') and was able to recover quite a few images. I lost a few and a couple others were cut but I'm thankful for the photos I could save.

Hey- I grew up in Northcentral Iowa. I attended Iowa State University where I received a B.A. Degree in Journalism and Mass Communication and had an emphasis on Child and Family Studies. I moved to Storm Lake in 2008 to work for the Pilot-Tribune, after working for a daily paper in Nebraska. When I'm not busy typing like a mad woman, peering from behind a camera lens or interviewing all sorts of new and exciting people, you can probably find me rollerblading/biking the paved paths of Storm Lake, strumming out a few notes on my guitar, walking numerous dogs all at once in Newell. I am also a member of Faith Bible, a member of the Shayla Bee family, the SL Kiwanis and a longtime member of the Twizzlers Annonymous Support group. Wink Wink.
