What a day! Spent a lot of time in the past 24 hours being my own IT Tech Support. But I did it! Last night at this time, my Mac Book Pro wouldn't boot up at all. Tried everything and did finally get to a screen that showed all my files, so did a back up of the files and then reimaged the whole thing this morning to the Time Machine. Then a few more hurdles to get the computer to "let me" reinstall the operating system. Not sure why it was so hard to delete all the files and then boot with the Leopard CD. Anyway, every portion of this effort took about 2 hours, with my fingers crossed and really holding my breath.
Worst part? Thought I might have lost all my new house design files (not - I have them all), and recent photos since my last backup on 6/20, which would be all MN trip files, plus a few others (have them all too). Then, in the past couple of days, I've had no access to Lightroom to manage these new photos.

Everything is back in order. Current no. of files on my MBP? 1.25 million (1,250,000). It took 3 hours to reload all apps and files. Whew!
