Moving…
Yesterday WordPress deactivated my blog. It was all a mistake on their part, but they corrected it, so all is well.
HOWEVER, I was very panicked when I logged into WordPress and saw that my blog was gone. I have been blogging here for 2 years. Over 2 years actually. Many things have been recorded here. The thought of not being able to access all I have built here had me freaking out. So, I immediately sent a panicked message to WordPress asking, essentially “why me?’, and instead of waiting patiently to hear back from them, I decided I knew exactly what the problem was and set out to buy my own domain and transfer everything from here to the new site. I like to think of myself as proactive. I like the word “proactive” far more than “ridiculously impatient”. So, I have been absolutely glued to my laptop since yesterday evening (I was up until 2 last night) trying to fix all that is broken. I bought my new domain, which took me forever to name, and I have been transferring and cleaning up the new place all day. In the midst of all of this work, I got the email from WordPress saying that they made a mistake, very sorry, and this blog was completely fine. It was up and running and healthy again.
*exhales major annoyed sigh*
Now, I’ve been wanting to buy my own domain for a very long time anyway. I actually blogged about it December 2010. Although, if I had any idea how much work it would be, I most likely would not have done it. But, it’s done now, and I LOVE the name, so I’m going to go ahead and finish the transfer.
I’ll be back later with the new link to my blog. Everything you see on this blog will be on the new blog. There will be zero differences. Posts, pages, comments, pictures, it will all be there. The only difference to speak of is that I will design a different blog header to correspond with my new blog name.
So, if you’re a subscriber, you’ll have to subscribe to my new blog. Once I’m finished with the move, that is where all of my new content will upload.
Whew. Drama-rama. I wish I didn’t have to leave this blog, sitting here on the web all alone. It’s been my space for 2 years. But I love my new blog name, and all the content from here is waiting on me there.
So, get ready to move with me please! Be back at a later date with new link…..
