Just to let you know

My power cord for my laptop is dying(or is dead, it can't make up its mind) so even though I plug it in to charge, it charges for three seconds then dies on me. So I have very limited life on my laptop which has all my photos on it.... I need to go out today and get a new one....ugh... that'll be another item to add to the list. Maybe then I can look at external hard drives, hm?
Please be understanding that this sucks.... It will say its working, I will walk away and come back, turn on my laptop and it didn't charge... grumble.
Thanks
