Frugal Dad is Back Online!

Whew!  Had a scary moment late last night when I did something to completely fry my hosting account.  FrugalDad.com was down for about 14 hours, and it was a nervous time for me. 

Now would be a good time to talk about creating regular backups!  Unfortunately, I didn’t create a backup since this last week.  Thankfully, all recent work was not lost because of the fine work of my host, HostGator (affiliate), who created an automatic backup this past Sunday and was able to fully restore my blog to that point.  I appreciate their efforts today in getting me back online.

Tonight I’ll be adding back a couple articles posted earlier this week, and will resume my normal posting schedule tomorrow.  I’m sorry for any lost comments, links, etc., and I appreciate everyone contacting me via email.  It’s nice to know there are people out there looking forward to your work each day!

    I’m looking forward to you getting back on track. I’ve got my comment saved and ready to post to help you on your way… Now if I could just get back into a regular backup routine. My new iMac’s internal drive is too large to backup onto the external drive I’ve used in the past.

    Hey, I missed seeing your blog today. Glad you’re back up and running.

    I’ve had problems with my wireless router for the past two days. I reinstalled it AND my modem, bought new cables, and was intensely frustrated. Then I realized the router’s power button had been pressed against the base of my monitor. . . .

    True story.

    Glad you’re back!
