Wake Up! Back Up! Don't Lose Your Blog Content

Boy did I get a huge wake up call last week! For about 24 hours I lost access to all my Blogger content: published and draft posts, comments, statistics, etc.  I nearly had a heart attack when I got this email: I thought it was a scam but at least I had the presence of mind to not click anything in the email itself.

I quickly read through what they considered "Malware and Similar Malicious Content," and was confident that there was no way I had violated the terms. My only recourse was to click the "Request Review" button. Reviews were said to take an average of 10 days but could be longer depending on the issue. I never received a confirmation email that I requested the review. Nothing! All I could do was wait. I went to the GeneaBloggers Facebook page to ask if anyone else had experienced anything like this and how long it took to resolve....

Hello Dear Readers,

I've enjoyed writing about some favorite holiday memories over the past few years. This week, I thought I'd "round" them all up to share as my Christmas 2025 post. I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I did writing them. 

If you have your own holiday memories to share, please drop a comment or post a link to your own stories. I'd love to read them.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Nancy
