Big Mac

We have a family computer in the kitchen which we call "big mac". She is six years old and full of all the most important information. She holds all the school projects, all the music, and most importantly all the family photos. My mothers guilt is plaguing me about this issue. I first want to give myself some recognition for even having photos, especially of daughter #4. Big Mac is slowing down and I am worried about the crash. If she goes, so does all the photos. How will I create a embarrassing montage for their wedding slideshow? Here is the dilemma, what to do with 6 years of photos? I can't print them, then "someone" has to put them into photo albums. Even worse, the most expensive and extensive mother guilt trap ever... scrap booking. I could put them on discs or create online books for each kid. But both of those options require hours of sorting photos online. There was something so simple about film cameras. The pictures might not have been as great but I always got them printed. Photos and closets have been my winter project for the last 5 years. I will just add it to my winter project list again and hope that big mac holds on. Mothers guilt, it is as endless as our love.
