November 2008 will go down in my Personal and Professional memory as one of those Months I would rather not remember! Except for the fact that I have little choice. Thank goodness this blog isn't about the Personal stuff as I am not ready to write all of that.
Of course, I am not anymore inspired to write about the Professional events that have made November 2008 a month I will never forget! I should actually be thrilled that in all of the time since I started my website and blog career I have NEVER suffered this lesson before. There is however no excuse for ignorance and sadly as well as I knew all of the rules--no prior losses gave me a false sense of security.
Bottom-line is backing things up really does matter. Ask me, I know very well at this moment. But--even more important backing up often and knowing how to Re-Install the back up is really the most important factor!
Silver lining I guess can be found--sometimes not everything is gone... and sometimes a full new start is a blessing in the end....
If anyone has missed me it's been a few weeks since my main website suffered a disaster and since November 7, 2008 I have been doing my best to recover.
Rule One--when you pay for some major changes to your website be sure to make a full and complete back up.
Rule Two--when a huge mistakes happens grieve and move on...
Hopefully, by the start of 2009 I will be right back into the roll of things. Back up and feeling better. Recovered and perhaps even better!
