Well, @#!*

Losing this blog thing has been a total pain. It has left me bitter and not wanting to blog.   I absolutely have a love/hate relationship with technology.

I DO, however, just need to buck it up and get over it.  There are lovely events and fun resources I want to share–but time, as well, has not permitted. Visitors, playdates and warm weather have distracted me

Some of you lovelies have e-mailed me requesting some of those links I posted in the past couple January blogs that have not yet been reposted. Hopefully that will happen soon (Brig is being a dear and reposting them so I can eventually have them ready to print out for a blog book). So keep checking!

Happy note–Our trees our in blossom and the daffodil bulbs which my kiddos planted in the fall are blooming!!!

Update

You might have noticed our blog was down for a few days. What I thought would be a minor problem has proven to be complicated and almost heartbreaking. The server which holds this site has completely deleted my blog. For some unknown reason they lost ALL of it. Needless to say I was miserable when I thought I had lost 2 1/2 years of family journaling.

Brigham has found some of the blog that has been cached by Google and I have spent MANY hours on a search and recovering mission throughout the web. I probably have now found about two-thirds of my entries and hope to find more.

We are now taking steps to save all of our blog entries to our hard drive. In addition we have now backed up our hardrive to an off-site holder. This covers us in case we were to have a fire in our home or were our hard drive to crash and lose everything on the computer–including our precious photos where they are stored.

Having almost lost everything, I realize how very priceless and irreplaceable both this blog and my pictures are. I would encourage you all to look into doing a similar thing. My blog won’t be running at full capacity for a little while (I’m not sure if you can even leave comments-try so I can see if it works).

On a bright note, I just had a glorious week with friends and family. I feel so lucky to have my wonderful mom and sister and then my beloved Swindles visit us. This made for two very hard goodbyes at the airport:) Thank you, thank you for coming!
