Finally finally my sore throat has gone!     I feel like lost a lot of my muscle because I almost did not go out for a month.  Now I have plenty of energy to go out.

Now what?   My MacBook got sick.   It stopped working since I had tried to open a PDF file from Japan.   I don't know why but it happened.   I was thinking to take my data back up a couple days ago but I DID NOT.   I have not made it since last October.   Outch!

Fortunately Jim has 2 laptops right now, I borrowed one of them and I did reserch to solve the problem.   I could see the desktop for  5 seconds then the screen went back to the sign in page.    I panicked. 

Day 2, I tried everything I could do following to the Apple web page.   Try this, this, this, then this.   I did a safe boot then I could reach the desk top.    THANK YOU!   I was just flustered to make back up as much as possible.  

Now I need to solve the problem but the problem seemed getting worse and worse.   

I had decided to make re-install the system.   I did it!    

Oh, my god, it stooped at the 2nd disc.   It could not go forward nor go back.   I could not do any thing.  I was at a loss.  

Day 3,  I was just stressed too much and woke up 5 am.  I was at a panic stage.  I forgot to eat breakfast but I started to work on my mac.   I was just afraid I could not use my laptop until December?   I resrched a closest Apple store.  Hmmm, I was pretty sure there was no Apple store in this country.   Kenia? or South Africa?    Did I have to bring in my mac?

I almost gave up to try the troubleshooting actions but I inserted the first disc one more time.   WOW!   It went through!!!!

I could see the choice for the re-installation.   I immediately chose the erase and install option so that I could get plenty of space on my hard drive.    I did same thing hundred times before but  it did not allow me but now I made it!   I did not know why.

Thank you thank you thank you!   I succesfully re- install the system.   I know I probably lost some files photos, musics but
