Last night five weeks of blog posts were suddenly completely gone for no explainable reason!  160 hours of work, images, text and the latest design updates are mysteriously gone and everything reverted back to January 6th on the blog, like some bizarre Groundhog day.

My first Scandinavian inclination was to do this…

SCREAM!!!!

How many times in life have you related to this guy?

I worried about whether the blog had been hacked, or if WordPress was having a glitch, and where is all my work, and why does the WordPress help desk take sooo long to respond, and not have answers as this seems to happen to WordPress blogs, who owns WordPress anyway….

But instead of relating to some old Scandinavian angst – I decided there is enough to worry about in life. A blog is a blog, and written words and images are just that, hopefully they were read and viewed and whatever that brought still lives on. And time is better spent with your child than spent fretting over technology — which we all know can drive you crazy!!

WE ARE DOING EVERYTHING TO HAVE THIS FIXED TODAY AND THE MYSTERY SOLVED.

So I made some hot chocolate with Luke and tuned in to American Idol instead.  Because after all the “Scream” is better re imagined as a cool interior…

…and Munch’s philosophy is too dark…

Munch: “Without anxiety and illness, I am a ship without a rudder….My sufferings are part of my self and my art. They are indistinguishable from me, and their destruction would destroy my art.”.

….and I’m re imagining the painting…perhaps smiling….

Because after all this is America and here all the movies here have a happy endings. At least my favorite kind.

THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE WHILE WE FIGURE THIS OUT!

P.S.

Having said all that…has something like this ever happened to you?

Do you always back up your files, or your blog?

Ok, I will stop….
