my PC needs the hospital

so my motherboard seems to dead... got help from my bf's dad (works in IT) over the phone, tried some fixes, but its been narrowed down to most likely needing a replacement for my motherboard ): if not that, my system SSD must have failed suddenly (which would be odd, when my D drive internal SSD was dying, it was simply going slow and fucking up until i couldnt read or write to it anymore. my system SSD has shown no such signs)

so i gotta go to a repair shop this week to help confirm up close that i need to replace the motherboard. Or perhaps find a fix that doesnt require paying for a PC part?? who knows whatll happen..

even if it is my system SSD, i have almost everything on it backed up. only important things id lose is my terraria save files and sprite sketches for a gamejam im in this month. By the way, my pc fucking up rn is terrible timing since im the artist in a gamejam and citrus con is in less than 2 weeks ... hoping itll be fixed before then ahhhhhh!!

while i wait to be able to go to the repair shop, ive been bored. i mean, i have books to read and my 3ds + switch, not to mention i was writing on my phone via ellipsus recently. but being worried about my PC has me a bit stuck i suppose. I havent finished reading this library book due on the 27th.. nor have i started houseki no kuni v7...

if i do lose my terraria saves ill be devastated, me n mat are somewhat far along in a calamity run that i have the world for. but what can u do ):
