Well. The copper-turtle server is still down, but at least there's something there now that tells you it will come back...! SO...if you e'd me asking for the links to the Townsend Godsey books, and I've not answered you...there have been some unforeseeable complications. The server containing the business website was physically moved Friday evening, and while our mailing server wasn't supposed to be upset about it, apparently it was. I've not been able to check my email since then. Then tonight, techno-guru Greg managed to find our mail (everyone in the family has a mailbox there) and I darn near had a stroke when he told me I had 1200 emails. I've been fretting over getting kicked off my own lists, but that didn't happen (dream on...LOL). I've been fretting over not getting requests from folks onlist for the book links, which I couldn't give you since the server was down. Incredible, impossible timing. Not very funny. Then my puter, which doesn't seem to appreciate Greg as much as I do, threw a hissy and wouldn't let him download my mail. In retrospect, I wisely took off and drove around with my visiting sis-in-law for an hour, just long enough to stay out of Greg's hair and let him figure out the mess. Part of it is figured. For the time being, if you happen to have my addy for copper-turtle in your address books, please use mailto:[email protected] . I changed my settings to use that for the "reply to" button, so any e you send should go to that mailbox. If it goes to copper-turtle, please be patient... I did get kicked off some of my lists, and the bad part is, I don't remember which ones...but they were the busiest ones, and so I'm sure I'll get to missing them. For those of you receiving doubles of messages, I often send posts to both lists at the same time. If you are on both lists (MOTANEY and MO-AR-WRV), you get doubles. I was getting 4 of them...and it's hard not to think you're boring folks when you read the same subject line 4 times in your own mailbox. I have managed to get through all the emails, believe it or not...for some reason, although I checked my mail every day last week, a lot of it was the same mail I got last week. So if I wrote you in reply to a message you sent last week, just realize I didn't dare drink coffee to stay awake, and my frazzlement isn't necessarily catching. Else I'm having a bad dream in which the same emails are going to haunt me forever. Gots to git. I told the kids I was going to get them up earlier than usual in the morning, but that only works if I hear the alarm clock... Let's have some genealogy and some local stuff! Brighten my day tomorrow! And thanks for letting me sob on your shoulders... <mutter, mutter, 1200 emails...> Vonda ListMom for MOTANEY and MO-AR-WRV http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~moarwrv/
