AIBU to throw my laptop out of the window?

Because I just managed to delete all the posts on my blog. Which I've been running for two years. And I was just starting to think I might be able to do something with it because the traffic was going well.

I know it's not the laptop's fault but I feel the need to have some kind of tantrum. Clearly not the web genius I thought I was.

And all the pictures were digital drawings too (terrible, three second demented looking drawings but still).

SIGH. HUFF. Pass the wine.

What blog website do you use? There might be a way to retrieve them

Can you find links/images through google cache?

Thanks! I use wordpress. I've contacted their live support, they are going to look into what I've done and see what they can do.
I've found some of the images but not all, and each post has quite a lot - I'm just seeing if I can find them on my computer anywhere. I imagine I have some of the most recent ones but not from the first year as I was on a different laptop.
I'm just so annoyed with myself! Don't get me wrong, it wasn't world changing content or great literature, mainly me wittering on about nonsense, but I put a lot of time into it.

At least there's always wine.

Ah I hope you recover as much as possible. Do you have anything potentially saved online in icloud / one drive etc? Sometimes pictures auto upload from your phone / email attachments / laptop

Is this useful?

www.mooveagency.com/wordpress/how-to-restore-your-deleted-blog-posts-on-wordpress/

Also try searching your blog through here:
cachedview.com/
archive.org/web/

They might have a few other pages saved. Try using a google image search link of your blog through them too.

If you recently deleted any of your digital drawings on your laptop, you could potentially retrieve the files from your recycle bin too
