Mummy had a simple excel to manage our family expense. Mummy had several worksheets by months. Besides that, there were some worksheets to record all the debts (Interest Free Installments).
All was saved in a small external HDD.
Guess what happen?
The whole excel got corrupted when Mummy tried to open this morning to update the expense. Mummy’s heart cried and it was very very sad.
Mummy tried to check on a big external HDD which Mummy used as back-up for the company documents (because Mummy’s company did not provide us any space to back-up our documents). The expense excel last updated was in May09 and now already Sept09. Besides that during such a short period, Mummy made a few changes on the Excel. Sob sob sob…..
Mummy was and still in the lost on how to restructure back all ….sooo sad…………..

oo cheer up.. can always start a new sheet..and then periodically save it.make copies..
Don't cry, I am sure you can update it again. Maybe you need to do a couple of version every time u update.
i thk you should do back-up on at least 3 hard drives...for the most important stuffs i mean...
i hope you will managed to pull this through...if not, start a new sheet then.
At least u still hv the one till May. And dun hv to start from scratch. After this, must back-up periodically.
gosh..i keep hearing about stuff like this n I keep telling myself to back up..ok I MUST back up my stuff next week..
dont be too sad..it's thru this we learn...
nvmd la, nothing much can be done. forget abt those missing months lor.
and remember to update all the copies at the same time
aiyo, i can imagine, sakit hati kan. rilek rilek, take a deep breath, slowly buat balik :)
adoi...kesian...that's really heartache :( but then, i never do things like these, u r very discipline & organise :D
Wah, you even key in everything you spend in Excel? That's a lot of work but I guess it's a matter of getting used to it eh? Don't you burn the copy into a CD or thumb drive? This happened to me when I was still working and since then, everything that I do (esp important files and big files), I make a backup copy.
dont be sad, start a new one .... a brand new worksheet with more 'income'
LOL
oh dear... I hope you are feeling better... and we were just talking about this over lunch not too long ago.
Better back-up all photos and other documents. Don't worry, can always redo it bit by bit...
