It’s Not You…It’s Me

Earlier today, in what can only be called an act of SHEER STUPIDITY, I attempted to make some minor changes to my website to improve functionality.

What I ended up doing was completely ruining the layout and function. I am sure it is fixable – and my timing to take a little bloggy break is perfect for me to have some runway to get things corrected – but…UGH. UGH. UGH. UGH. UGH.

Ugh because I should have known better. Ugh because I knew even as I was making changes that I wasn’t qualified to be attempting these tweaks and something could go wrong. Ugh because I’ve been too cheap to hire someone and now I WILL have to hire someone. Ugh for missing Belle’s volleyball games because I was on the phone with my hosting site. Ugh because all sorts of additional issues have come to light (for instance my automatic blog backups haven’t been working – of all people this should not be happening to me because I know better after what happened last year – but I only realized this today when my website went sideways and there was no backup and my host hadn’t informed me of this little tidbit).

I have a GIANT Happy Things Friday post ready in the wings, but I’ll hold off publishing that until the formatting has cleared. Ditto with the Cool Bloggers Walking Club Week #3 roundup. I have that post ready but will sit on it until things show up properly across various devices. Feel free to keep submitting pictures and I may just end up posting Weeks #3 and 4 together once the blog is fixed.

It seems to be a combination of a browser compatibility and caching issue. It’s showing up fine for some people, and horribly for others. Thanks in advance for your patience. And please, for the love of all that is good, make me promise to never, ever touch another optional button or try to insert my own code ever again.

Crossing fingers and toes that this will all be sorted soon.

How about one more UGH for good measure…UGH!!!!!!!!!

Your turn. What have you broken recently?
