Short ‘Ooops!’ Post

Posted on 19 January 2008 by MommyKnows

Sorry, for the 2nd weekend in a row, my hosting co. has tried to migrate to a new server (with no luck) and my site has been down most of that time. This weekend, I was down and I also lost the original ‘NEW Contest Starts Today – Two Free Slings from Pippalily!’ post, which I have recreated below. As well, all of yesterdays comments were purged, luckily I subscribe to my own comments feed so those people who entered the contest yesterday are accounted for.

AnyWHO … no use cryin’ over spilt milk … it does make me grumpy though!

Go to the post below to see the contest details and make sure to enter by commenting (or linking).

    Stinking server migration. I don’t know what that is. But it’s sounds complicated.

    I am glad you explained what happened! I tried intermittently to get on your site and it said something strange. Finally, my husband came and looked and there were site problems. Glad to see your site again! Have a marvelous Monday! Cindi

    I wondered what was up with the site. I tried twice over the weekend and it didn’t work. Those look like really nice slings, especially with the fleece lining!

    I tried visiting also. I was sad to see I couldn’t get on. I’m glad it’s fixed. Your one of the first stops on my trip every morning.

    Sorry to hear about your server troubles; our family website has had similar issues in the past…no fun! If you subscribe to your own comments, you probably already saw that I cited you and your contest on my blog since I love baby carriers to much. But, just in case you didn’t here’s the link:

    I am a baby-carrying fanatic. I have 3 slings and two packs, and I am not saying this because I don’t want another one, I am saying this so that one might understand my love of SLINGS!

    Great contest!

    Hello to all! I just want to appologise for the downtime as I am the owner of that Hosting Company that put this site down 2 weekends in a row. This had to be done but on the bright side, this site will be simply much faster then before! Again sorry and enjoy a safe & efficient browsing on this site :)
