Wednesday’s can be a rough time of week some times. It means that the week is only halfway through. You still have 2 days until Friday. You have been following your diet really well and are starting to feel sugar cravings and want to sneak to a closet to eat some chocolate. The day seems to drag on. It isn’t quite pay day but you have something you would really like to buy…that is why Wish List Wednesday is PERFECT. This provides all of us with a chance to express our latest wishes…material items, health items, spiritual, etc.
Feel free to leave a link in the comment box to a picture of something you found you like, a blog posting you wrote about what you are wishing for, etc. Grab the picture and start Wish List Wednesday on your blog! Leave the link so we can visit!
HEY! Maybe this will even help people find just the right item that they KNOW you will love for your birthday, anniversary, Christmas, or just when they want to make you smile. OOO! Tell your husbands about Wish List Wednesday

Raise your hand if you:
–Put all your pictures on your computer to clean off your memory card…maybe even thinking one day you will burn them all on a dvd or get them printed off.
–Have tons of word documents saved on your computer.
–Paid to download music and have saved them all on your computer…maybe thinking that one day you will burn them onto cds.
–Uploaded all our your videos from your camcorder to your computer…maybe thinking that one day you will burn them onto dvds.
–Gone somewhere and needed a document or photo from your computer but do not have it with you.
Ok…now think…what if your computer crashed? What would happen to all your precious things, memories? You paid for them and now they are gone. Photos and videos can’t be recreated. Moneypaid to buy music is down the drain. I would be devastated. How about you!?
Did you know most computers crash within three years? Random disasters and viruses can cause your computers’ external hard drives and other data storage devices to be vulnerable to destruction at any moment. If you are not backing up your valuable digital things you take the chance of losing everything.
HomeDataGuard (HDG) is “essentially a remote file cabinet for your important documents, photos, videos and anything else digital.” They use Amazon for their secure servers, so it’s well encrypted (meaning you’re quite safe from identity theft). Not a computer guru? No worries. Their interface (or perhaps in your terms, “program”
) is very simple, clean, and animated.
“HomeDataGuard was originally founded by Dina Moskowitz, a serial entrepreneur in San Diego, California who is also a Mom raising two kids. The business was sparked by the evacuations and impact of the 2007 San Diego wildfires that destroyed thousands of people’s homes and memoirs.” Wouldn’t it make having to evacuate your home less stressful if you didn’t have to worry about packing up your computer in order to save your things!?
Not only does HomeDataGuard protect your things, it allows access to any of your documents, photos, videos, etc from any computer 24/7/365!! Wouldn’t this be great for traveling business people. Now you don’t have to haul around your computer and hassle with hooking it up just to show your slide show. Just arrive at your destination and log in!
Here is a great tip: If your documents or photos aren’t in digital format now, just scan them in or use a fax machine. “If you do not own one, take
your documents to a local copy store for assistance. [If] you reside in regions where [they] offer HomeDataPro assistance, you can schedule an appointment to have a HomeDataPro come to your home to do all the scanning for you.”
Here is how it works–
Once you are signed up, “enter your username and password. The vault door will open and you will be taken inside to your File Cabinet. You have the choice of working in the File Cabinet view (most popular) or the Tree Structure view (best when you’ve added many files).”
“Your HomeDataGuard File Cabinet has four drawers: the top two drawers include several pre-named folders to get you started; the bottom two drawers are empty. In each drawer, you can create new folders as you need them. We recommend that you open the top two drawers to see if the pre-named folders are useful to you; simply delete those which are not.” (There is a great video of how it works on the home page www.HomeDataGuard.com)
We recommend that you decide in advance how to organize your file cabinet in the most logical way for your personal needs and preferences. For example, you might want to put all home-inventory and emergency related information together in one drawer, all videos in another drawer, and all business-related information in another.”
PLUS–Your subscription comes with its own unique email account, so that you can do things like email photos from your cell phone right into your account, or have your advisers send important files into the account, or use that email address when you make travel reservations, etc.
I think this is the greatest thing! I am totally hooking myself up with HomeDataGuard. I just would be sick if I lost some of the things on my computer…especially my pictures and all the music I have paid for (not to mention the time I have taken to upload all my cds onto my computer).
