Apologies for the unexpected downtime on 1/31 to - 2/1, the new server company I am with failed to notify me that we would be experiencing downtime while they moved their servers to a new facility. I opened a support ticket and was notified what was happening. I stayed up a few more hours until almost 4AM waiting (they claimed 3-4 hours of downtime in the email I received from support) for the site to begin working again and finally went to sleep. When I woke up this morning I realized the site was still down. We're back up now. I'm not happy about what happened. Not at all.

I've been having horrible cold turkey this whole day, but I'm just glad it's up and running again

Not your fault...I figured it had something to do with the change over and knew you would have us back up and running in no time... It allowed me to do some housekeeping ...so it was a good thing for me...

This made me laugh!!!

I kinda felt the same way, I was bummin a lil, then I was bummin even more when I found no one else had access.

I'm sure it happened at the best possible time though.

We couldn't get enough so we cruised over to the FaceBook group, thanks Janice

. I am once again a happy women as I am sure many are.

The other groups don't have the smileys though! But it is great we have our own little community on FB, so we don't blow a fuse.
