Ok . . . So my site has been down for over a week now. I’m sure your wondering (all three people who read my blog) what the heck happened. My web host’s server crashed. Not only did it crash, but apparently it was the hard drive that CRASHED. At this writing they have made a few less expensive attempts to recover the hard drive and now have sent it to a data-recovery specialist (read: EXPENSIVE). What does that mean? Well, I hope they can recover my site. I, of course have back ups of the design of the site, but the blog entries . . . I’m missing from August 2009 (last time I backed up my site) to now. I’ve redirected for the time being to a wordpress blog. I hope to have my own domain and new design up by the end of the week. And I hope at some point my server company will come to me and say they recovered those four months of blog entries. If not I will have to recreate the most important ones: the birth of Everett, Olivia’s birthday, our anniversary, and perhaps the holidays. The others will just rest in the non-existent memory of a crashed hard drive. R.I.P.

So . . . in the mean time, enjoy this simple site with old stories.
