The last couple of days have been harrowing indeed! Never mind the fact that today is Friday the 13th when the good luck ends. Blogger has been down since Thursday morning into mid day today. I could read the blogs, but I couldn't post any comments, sign in, nor much of anything else-just read... Any click of the the mouse directed me to an error message and/or Blogger not available page. Thinking the problem my be at my end, I had cleaned my computer out, taking viral scans. No change.I'm aware of Blogger shutting down for maintenance issues from time to time, but NEVER for this long. As the hours passed, I began to wonder if my computer was really starting to freak out. Just to be sure if anyone else was having this issue, I called Lizardmom to ask her if she was having any problems. Sure enough, she was... At least my computer was fine.
As I sat vigil over the computer waiting for Blogger to fix their problem, I began to notice the situation was getting worse. Blogs posts and comments were starting disappear-like a virus spending throughout the system. I began to worry if this was the end for Blogger. My mind raced-what will happen to the JTI? How I be able to recover my blog? All those years of hard work gone!
That ray of hope shown through mid day today when Blogger was finally restored. As I surveyed the damage, I noticed that the blog posts that had disappeared, returned. I had lost some unfinished blog posts that I had planned. Many comments remained missing.
Blogger never gave a logical reason to what the problem was, but issued a statement. Hopefully, they'll be able to finish the loose ends of this madness up soon.
At least I can breathe again...

It was frustrating. If you get a service unavailable message from a site, but can view all others OK, it's probably just that site and not a virus.
I was checking in regularly, too, but there was nothing to be done. We just had to wait.
Kinda funny, isn't it, how "addicted" we are to the JTI? Or is it scary?
I think I'm addicted to JTI because they ARE my family.
I agree with Drew, some days we may not be able to check in as often as we like but to not be able to is like calling a parent and not being able to reach them, you start to think the worst sometimes, so glad the fam is back ! :)
WOW that's good to know. I thought I forgot my password AGAIN, and I didn't. WOO HOO.
DREW: I need to know how Harley Is?
Toad-Harley is doing wonderful! Like a miracle, she has made a complete recovery.
I've been praying all this time for her. Thanks for the info. I have been worried, and afraid to ask.
