If you could go back in time and change one teeny tiny decision, what would it be, Mr. and Mrs. Austin?
Oh, that's easy. BEFORE we brought the computer in to get it fixed, we would have saved a backup file of our family tree information!
Why? Because it's not there anymore. And we are un, un, unhappy!
And completely mad at ourselves because we were in such a rush to get it fixed, we didn't take time to do that. In fact, it didn't cross our minds. So we are doubly mad. Now it seems like a big "duh" moment that we can't go back and re-do. And we can't blame the guy who fixed the computer. He was just trying to be nice and upgrade that program for us. He couldn't have known replacing the program also replaces the data.
We do have a backup copy from a few years ago but that was before hubby went out East on his "quest" to Vermont and New York. That was before a whole lotta names and dates and more were entered.
Now we learned our lesson.
I suppose that could be said about a lot of things in life, couldn't it? We can't change the past, our decisions, our actions, but we can learn from them and become better people because of it.
And, God help us, not make the same mistakes again!
