Well, that was a bit too exciting

Going out for a swim I see this little dog with goggles.

The morning – for no apparent reason – I decided to check on the blog. And “everything” was gone. It was not pretty. Like a panic attack. Because – I don’t back up my blog. I back up everything. But, since I changed hosting services a couple of years ago – I hadn’t backed it up. 

I took myself off for a fast 2 mile walk. When I got back – I figured out what had happened, but not why. And, things are almost all back to normal. I backed everything up to my computer and setup a daily backup script. 

I was surprised at how much this blog means to me. I have had it for almost 17 years. What else have I had for 17 years? Damn little. Lets see: photo albums, some kitchen stuff, my rugs, table, a couple of chairs, my bed, a few pair of earrings. My wedding ring. 

New project. You know I love my “projects”. Figure out how to convert the blog – at least the WordPress part – to a PDF document. Or a dead tree book. It is doable. Just really time consuming when you are talking about 17 years of postings (17 X 365 = 6,205 posts). Maybe, I will just keep it backed up and forget about the dead tree option!

Then, when I got out and went for my shower - I found the dog getting a shower.

In my next life - I want to be a dog.
