Some days are good and some days are bad. Real bad. I had one of the latter this past Thursday.

I missed renewing the domain name for a site I manage, www.corporateflyer.net, so Thursday the site went “dark” and everyone was locked out. Even though I discovered the problem right away, it still took 24 hours to bring everything back online.

Things got worse in the afternoon when I attempted to make some modifications to my other blog, Jet Movements. The plug-in didn’t take and before long my .htaccess file was corrupt. After five or so changes, things were still messed up, so I decided to upgrade the forum to WP 2.0. Things went well or so I thought.

On Friday morning I checked Jet Movements with I.E. and it looked horrible! So, I had to upload three templates until I found one that worked right. After two hours of tweaking and modifying everything was fine. Goes to show you how our little mistakes can get out of control.

BTW, at least one good thing happened on Thursday. I submitted a proposal for work that was tentatively accepted by the other side. I won’t know for sure ’til later today.

So, I had my humble pie. Sometimes I think all of this is God’s way to remind us just how much our gifts and strength comes from Him and not us.
