And HowJoyful is back!


Did you try to check on the blog and saw all kind of errors these past couple of days? Well if you didn’t you were lucky because I can not begin to share how frustrated I felt of not having a warning or anything from my former hosting company regarding the monthly bandwidth. It’s was a bitter sweet feeling, the problem was causes because this month HowJoyful broke the record of page-views and traffic it normally has, witch is an awesome thing!! but since my hosting had a limit, after I reach it they instead of letting me know and warning me, to find a solution (upgrade or something ) they just let me find out by myself after the site was down for a day already. The sad part, I wasn’t even able to receive or send emails, witch is pretty weird.

Anyways this past weekend Ken got back from a month being of fires in Texas and we planned a trip to the beach, it was awesome but we had to come back sooner than planned because he got called to another fire =[ Weekend away meant no sewing witch means no tutorial of the dresses for now and since I have to catch up with all the work I could not complete this past 2 days because of my email and hosting problems, the tutorial will have to wait a few days, but don’t worry my lovelies next week I will have a tutorial and the paste of the blog should be back to normal.

I just hate when things like this happen, because there is nothing I can do, well.. I actually did something, changed my business and blog to another hosting company, so hopefully this would never happen again!!

Have a great and warm Wednesday!

    =D I’m sorry Joy, I am also to blame for the increase. I went through and read all of your posts last week or so. I saw the link on another one of the Bee’s blogs from Wedding Bee. I love your crafts! I want to try and use the tutorial that you posted on the hive about your clay flowers to make my own sometime soon :)
    I thought that looked familiar ^_^ I’ve been going to Dana Point since I was a little girl, definitely one of my all time favorite beaches.

    Hi Joy,
    I received your e-mail about Conner this morning and I’m really sad about it.
    I have two dogs and their my life, my babies. Some years ago I lost a six-month puppy that swallowed with a dog treat.It was very painful.
    I really hope that your husband and Curly could give you the comfort that you need in this painful time.
    An you’re right, we have to thank everyday for all the lovely moments that this amazing little creatures share with us.
    God bless you your family (sure including Curly!)
    Mariella
