#21 Bungling

As I mentioned Friday I was looking forward to a fun-filled weekend – it is rare I can leave work alone for a whole weekend and enjoy the snow. There’s usually some deliverable that needs at least some attention!

This weekend we skied a lot including a trek into a cabin for dinner. I even got a game of hockey and some telemark skiing done. By Sunday eve I was tired but happy with the fun!

As for work all I had planned was to write and prepare my monthly e-Newsletter, Exposed! I am very lucky (and grateful) to have help posting it to the web. I write and my GF prepares it for the web – she does it far quicker than I would!

In so doing she discovered some problems with my site’s host Canada Web Hosting. CWH were switching to a different server and had warned people they were doing some work. It seems that their work was only partially done. I lost a day of email, some database functionality and many hours of my life trying to work with their hapless help desk.

It was a very bungled job and I am still trying to fix some issues they created. Their support staff did not follow-up as promised. It affected my blog, e-mail and databasefunctions – sorry to any of you that noticed. As my friend, JQ, would say – it was a big ‘fumbleton.’

I’ll keep you posted!
