It was first thing in the morning,
I downloaded Hearthfire,
then I went to Game Data Utility and deleted the Skyrim files!
YES.

Started the game, heard Skyrim music
, there I was somewhere in Winterhold!! 
Spoiler
(p.s., I'd gone through most DB quests and was nicely set up in Severin Manor; last save had me at the "dig" clearing out more draugr)
I was still at the proper level but I forgot to check if I still had my DB gear on me-----I backed out fast and re-downloaded everything,
started up again,
and WHEW heard that reassuring "Caprice" music.
Thought I'd lost everything!!!
