Up and running but…
Yes, I’ve been trying to retrieve as many files as possible from my site which went down on 8th October because the hostess can’t afford to continue hosting me under her wings *so sad*. The worst thing is I only discover that the service has come to an end after my site is not accessible! That means after it is dead! Another worst thing is I don’t do backup on those postings that I’ve done! Never would have thought that a hosted site can be just gone like that!
Fortunately there is Yahoo! search which also provide to link to cache, thus I managed to retrieve my posts but not all of them. Initially my posting has reach 200 posts, now I have less than 50 in my archive *sob sob*. I’m still trying to get more at the moment.
Anyhow, it is still better than zero, right? The best thing is I get back my same domain name as I’ve registered it under my name and that service hasn’t expired yet *yippie*.
It felt so bad during those few days without my blog. Only then I know I’ve been treating this blog as my diary, the place that I use to put down all my thoughts, be it about myself, my children, my family, places that I’ve visited and things that I discover daily, and writing has been my daily habit now-a-day. It came 2nd after email. I think I’ll be depressed if I can’t get this site back and running again. It is also my income source for buying all my scrapbooking stuff! How can I live without scrapbook!? If I don’t have this extra income, it would be dreadful to dig out from my savings.
So, I’m glad, I’m really glad that it came back up and now I can keep myself updated with things and also let it serves as a reminder how what had happened in my life.
At the mean time, let me just sit back, relax (not so much since I still need to keep my job) and visit surf! Maybe I’ll just check out these hotels in las vegas nv, just to day dream!

Lost your blog posts, what a horror! Have to go back and backup mine now. Hope you manage to retrieve all of yours back… Imagine 10 years or 20 years from now, you can go back and read what you were doing and thinking in yesteryears…
Yes, it was horrible having to loose my site on that day and lost my scrapbook layout which being thrown away by the office cleaning lady thinking that the pizza box is empty, all at the same day!
I agree about coming back to read about what I was thinking and what happened on those yesteryears
