Missing...

Last night I got a weird e-mail from Project Wonderful stating that they suspended my ads on my blog....I went huh?  Went to check my blog and it was GONE!!  I about had a heart attack.  I had such a lump in my throat and felt nauseous.  

Not sure what happened...spam bots were at it I guess.  Not sure what they considered spam?  I have read over the last 3yrs this happening to people, but never had to deal with it. 

THREE years of content flashed before my eyes.  All that work and time spent, GONE.  I clicked the help button and they directed me through a few steps and called me with a verification code and then my blog was back up.  THANKFULLY!

I have created blog books in the past through Blurb, but really need to catch up with the last few. 

Now I, like many other people, are contemplating jumping ship from Blogger and going over to wordpress.  Have you made the switch?  Do you like it better?

And because I feel the need to share a random photo that makes me smile.....

Oh my goodness ... I would totally DIE too!!!! I keep saying that I am going to make a book out of my blog as well and just haven't done it. I can't even imagine losing every post!

Okay, that is the cutest little fairy! She made me smile too! :)

I hope everything goes smooth now. I'm so sorry to hear that! I would have felt the same, and man is that picture cute!!

The little fairy is just darling!

Things like what happened to you are what ultimately led me to move to WordPress. I'm not one who enjoys change, so the first month I hated it, but since then I've never looked back. It's one of the best things I have ever done since I started blogging.

I can only imagine getting an email like that. Thanks for the reminder that I need to backup my blog more often than I do.

She is cute :)
It's nice to know what could happen? I am clueless when it comes to being a blogger. Until recently, I've only used my blog to show my works. I hadn't heard of project wonderful. I will have to check it out.

Thank you Melanie!!
