Taking a Time Out

If you are on blogger, you might have also been having issues with your blog the past couple days.
They say everything is back to normal, but not on my end...
I had several posts that I had written up, ready to go...
I think I had 8 or 9, anyways, they have disappeared!
Nope, I can not find them anywhere, but I tell you what...
I learned my lesson.

From here on, I will be saving a copy somewhere else...
Lesson learned.

With that in mind, I am a bit frustrated...
I will be playing catch up the next several days...
They were all reviews and giveaways...
Yeah, it took time...
Lots of time...

So, please excuse me for a few days...
I am not "gone", just trying to get them all rewritten!

Thanks and hope you have a great weekend!!!!

    Im missing a bunch of posts I made too. I really hope they come back because one of them was a giveaway with people that had already entered and I'm getting complaints! Oh what a mess! :(

    Ouch ... I'm sorry to hear that you lost your scheduled posts. I know how long it takes to write review/giveaway posts, so I can well imagine your frustration.

    I've heard good things about Windows LiveWriter, but I haven't tried it yet. Have you?

    You need a product called Carbonite. That's what I use for backup.

    I'm so sorry to hear that! I've lost posts before and it's so frustrating to have to recreate them.

    I think lots of people had things disappear. Thankfully I lost just a few.

    I use BlogDesk to draft my posts and keep and schedule in there until they are ready to get published in my site. Other bloggers use Windows Live Writer, but it's too much for my needs and really prefer BlogDesk. You might want to look this up.

    I saw your posts in my little newsfeed but couldn't get to them. Can't wait to see the posts and hope you come back soon

    I was irritated with the missing posts and then the missing comments.
    Then I thought about the poor bloggers who lost comments on their giveaways, that's really gotta suck, because I know how difficult some sweepers can be - they get really mad at the blogger, like it was all her fault.

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my...

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c...

Hurry Up! Review & Giveaway

Image
The Holidays are getting closer and closer! Some may want the days leading up to them to "Hurry Up!" So, with that in mind... I want to kick things off with a pretty cool giveaway!!!!!!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game is kicking things off for us... Check back daily to see what is in store!! Hurry Up! The Dice Game, by Random Line is a hit around here already! True enough, Marc and I did not follow the directions, exactly as we were supposed to, but that was because I did not read them all the way! In our defense, we just wanted to see how much fun it would be to prepare for when the boys are here again! (Note, it will be a big hit! I can see it already!!) This game is super fun and as the name says... Hurry Up!!!! You have 6 die and 6 challenges... One dice is blue... and that adds for lots of fun!!! You only have 30 seconds to complete the challenge... and you might think that 30 seconds is a long time, but in actuality, it is NOT as long as you need it for some challenge!!!!...
