If you're wondering why I have not written a single thing since November 20th, I have an explanation. I haven't died or decided to quit.
Shortly after noon on Friday the 20th, I lost the ability to access this website. What I thought would more than likely be an intermittent fluke lasted for hours and then days.
Once I realized the problem wasn't going away I contacted my ISP for assistance. They told me I should expect a resolution within 48 to 72 hours which put it right in the window of the Thanksgiving holiday.
What I assumed was a problem with my ISP for nearly a week was actually revealed to be a problem with our web host, however, and, as of right now, the issue still hasn't been resolved.
I am posting this now from an open wifi connection away from home on an IP address that hasn't been inadvertently blocked.
On top of this, my second niece was born this morning and I'll be visiting her at the hospital where I am right now.
I will attempt to post what I can during brief windows of opportunity while waiting for a more permanent resolution.
