How awful. I was travelling the week this happened and then came down with the flu and then had a horrible week at work with lots of backed up stuff, so I haven’t had time to catch up on all my reading until now. So sorry you had to go through this, but happy all is back to normal now.

I was wondering what had happened. I assumed it was something on my end – usually is. 😉 I’m so glad you got it all sorted out. I can only imagine how stressed you were. I would have been at wits end. And you’re right – that is what is wonderful about the blogging community. So many of us have never might and may not ever meet, yet there are so many willing to help each other out and share kindness. I love it. Glad this one has a happy ending!

Oh my how scary!
That is one of the major reasons that stop me from shifting to self hosting. I am really glad you managed to get all your posts back

Oh my goodness Charlie! How stressful. I am delighted you were able to get your content back. I am also glad I did not read this post before I had my hosting company move my website to a VPS this last week. I would have been a nervous wreck. Hugs coming your way and that it never, ever happens again. Take Care, BAM

That’s really annoying Charlie.
I admire your sense of humor, this , as the french say, “catastrophe “:), resumed in such a graceful and funny title.
It’s the loss of all of us, now I can’t rummage in your blog as I used to do often.
Anyhow,looking forward to your next post 🙂

I’m glad to find out that everything is back, yet I can imagine your feelings when this happened! I could nearly go to a bathroom or eat when some technical issues happened to the blog in the past. And it’s very true that food blogging is an amazing community. This is a big love community of sincere people.

Charlie, I’m just now returning to blog world and was horrified to read about your posts disappearing due to a “glitch” transferring info from server A to B to C to XYZ — or at least that was my conclusion of the series of events. Thank heavens a cyber angel came to the rescue (will check out Absolutely Jas right after this!) and that you were able to get everything restored. I print out a hard copy of my posts for my Mom (who doesn’t have a computer) so I at least have a file full of them four states away, if things go awry. Still, like you said, all the links were AWOL, etc. and it must have been extremely upsetting. I’m glad your new heater has been a source of comfort! xo
