Just DAMN!
After working fine, with no problems, for 28 hours and 38 minutes, the site started the whole UP/DOWN sequence again.
With no warning the site went down at 3:40 pm, and it all started again.
So now it’s back to Godaddy Tech Support once again.
Oh boy!
We did make a trip up to Spring this morning to meet up with some RV friends at the Potatoe Patch restaurant there.
From the left: Debi Hurlburt, Sandy Mills, Judy Mott, Mike Mills, and David Evans. then coming around the back on the right: Me, Ed Hurlburt, Logan Mott (Judy’s grandson), my Jan, and David’s Jan.
Had a great time with old friends. Hopefully we can do it again soon.

IT’S BAAAAACCCCCKKKKK!
Like flicking a switch, the blog came back up today at 11:02 am . . . and stayed up.
However, since I was busy at work, I didn’t notice this until about 2pm.
Last night, thinking there might be some sort of pattern in the ups and downs, I upgraded my UpTimeRobot account from the free version with 5 minute checks, to the $5.50/month version which checks once a minute.
And this is what I had this morning.
No discernable pattern, but . . . something was going on, because starting at 6:56 am, the site was down for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Previously, over the last 10 days it’s never been down for longer than 30 minutes, or up for more than 30 minutes. In fact, it was mostly up and down every 1 to 10 minutes.
But then a few hours later the problem just up and disappeared.
And since nothing on the blog had been changed, upgraded, or updated, that pretty much puts the lie to the idea that the entire problem was due to any blog software problems. meaning as I thought from the beginning that this was a server hardware problem.
And Godaddy finally fixed it.
But since I’ve been feeling like crap today, with congestion and a bad headache, this is all you get until tomorrow when I’ll be back in the blog business.
