So my orders have been pretty much done and saved on a darn memory stick. Guess what...can't find that darn stick now! I keep telling myself I'll start using Google's cloud server to save my spreadsheet on so I can access it from anywhere but have not.. Well guess what I"m gonna do today?

You have already done your orders ?
Wow mine are still just basic thoughts in my mind.

Personally I use SkyDrive but it is the same thing as Google Fart Cloud Server. 1. Were your orders so complicated that you can't reproduce them? 2. Always save on an external source like Dropbox, Googles Whatever or SkyDrive.  |

Averon,
That majorly bites. Especially since you were sending everything to your favorite primacy right? JK.
Hope you find it soon.

I'm actually still at the point where I have a horrendously complicated plan that I am afraid to input to the spreadsheet because of the inevitable gaping holes that the process of actualizing it will reveal.
Man we're getting close though. I hope I can finish a draft tomorrow.

I normally make notes in a "working" excel file and put them all together the week before.
So yeah, that would be pretty devastating for me too.

I use an excel doc for my orders, but I have a tendency to email it to myself on a regular basis as I update it. With a little luck, I should only be able to lose my most recent update even if the computer goes toes-up.

well my orders are just about done, and I've consumed enough "beverage" to keep polar bears out of california for a decade! No need to thank me just doing my part! Still I know I probably will be adding adjustments till the last minute as always. now where did that bottle go??

It's more than a little amazing how "beverage" lubricates the creation of orders. |

I’m a little nervous. My orders have been done for over 24 hours, and I haven’t had to tweak them at all. I don’t think this has ever happened to me before.
It’s like when you’re in high school and you finish a test before anyone else- you generally either aced it or completely frakked it up.
