CRASH!

In all my years {2 plus a few months} T&T has never crashed...well except for the night I turned it live. It was down for a few minutes, but I got it back up. No one even knew it was "open" so I don't count it! Well...my baby {as I fondly refer to T&T} fell hard on Thursday and momma cried & banged her head against the wall!

You might remember this post...well they JUST now {so much for 24 hours} migrated my site to a new platform. It crashed, it burned, and it spoke a new language...Greek! I found myself being so angry that I had created my site myself and there wasn't anyone to call for HELP! The momma bear came out of me raging to protect and fix her cub and tech support was soon on the other line...and wishing they weren't! To top it off I was out of town in Cincinnati at my last event meeting for my "paying job" in which I had spent all day running around making sure some 300 people were where they were supposed to be and happy. I feel sorry for the lady in the business center at the hotel late Thursday night who had to listened to my complete pitiful phone conversation with my hosting company...lets just say she came down and checked on me the next day. It was like getting sick on the road...you just want to be in your own bed. Well...I wanted to be on my own computer at my house!

Not to worry now...many hours on the phone with the tech over a couple days, many levels of blood pressure fluctuations, a few heart palpitations, several hours of Greek script, a few emails from confused customers, and many prayers later she was back up and running on Saturday afternoon. I am just thankful as even as bad as it was it could have been worse...it could have never come back up! I am hoping this will be the only problem during T&T's "terrible twos"!

{ thank you so much again Miss B for coming to my rescue with your recommended friend! }
