Why can't things happen gradually? It never can be one thing at a time, can it? It always has to be everything all at once just because I don't know, it's Murphy's Law or something...LOL So not only is my domain down (ZenYarnGarden.com) but also my taxes are due this week. And both of these things don't take 5 minutes to do either. So in an effort to stay positive, I have stocked my Etsy store with a few products for browsing and once my DOT COM is back up and running again, I do believe I'll have a little celebration discount code! Stay tuned for that! I will announce it via the newsletter so if you haven't signed up for that yet, please do so here. If you've already received my newsletters in the past, don't worry, I still have your contact info at my mailing list provider so there's no need to sign up again.
Thank you to everyone who emailed/PMed/Twittered to let me know that the site was down. After some digging I still do own the domain (big sigh of relief!) and I now have the host who carries the domain working on releasing it back to me. That's the good news! What does that mean though on the other side? Finding a new host and quite possibly rebuilding my cart software. Seems horrible really but this may be the time to instal new cart software and give the site some better functionality that I couldn't have before. When life deals you lemons, make lemonade...or something like that anyways...LOL

And let's get to the pretty now shall we? I managed to finish spinning up 2 oz of my
Serenity Roving in the last little while too. I can't tell you just how soft this fibre is with the cashmere in it but it's really quite devine! I was going to spin up the other 2 oz but decided to navajo ply the 2 oz I had already finished so I could see what the colours would do when plied. I'm really pleased with it.

Now onto my other tasks that will more than likely take up the rest of my week! When it rains, it sure does pour! Wish me luck that my domain gets released back to me with little to no glitches. That will make me very happy despite the need to rebuild everything once I do.
That sounds like a major PITA. Good luck - I hope it all works out.

It's a huge pain! Always seems to be something!

I was wondering what happened to you! Hope it all works out without too much hair-pulling.

Hi Tara! I just emailed you - not sure how long it'll take to get back up but I'm hoping not too long. I emailed you with more details about arranging details offline too :)
