I spent all morning learning about landing pages, a very frustrating experience to say the least. It was so frustrating it was hilarious. So I blogged about it. Then guess what I did?
I don’t know. Honestly I don’t! After getting up at 4:30 this morning, going to exercise at 8:00 and returning to spend over two hours writing a post and trying to learn how to create a landing page, I was so frustrated that I clicked save on my completed post and went in to shower. I had planned to pass out Woodlake magazines this morning, and my morning flitted by on a landing page. The picture below is what mine looked like after about two hours. Actually it still looks like that.
After I showered and tried to call to get a key to the new Woodlake Chamber office where the magazines are, I realized that no one is there to give me a key. It’s President’s Day. I’m not ready for another holiday!
So I went back to my post, which I had closed out after I saved it. IT WAS GONE! Two hours of back slapping humor, lying in a puddle of e-tears on nobody’s server. How could that be? I know I saved it. Now it’s not even funny.
BUT IT WAS!
🙂
So how are you spending your President’s Day holiday?
Happy President’s Day!
Gaaah! How annoying. BTW, what is a landing page?

You’ll have to read all about it tomorrow. 🙂 I’m publishing that article, which I rewrote as best I could on my TC History Gal Productions site.

Look back and see just how far you have come on your website, the amazing progress…Part of our skills as a blogger is the ability to endure those moments of painful frustration when the technology seems to be working against us.

You are kind, and very right. I think that we learn so many skills as a blogger because we do write about what we learn – every frustration. I still have no idea what happened to my text, but it is a reminder once again to be careful to save and put things in more than one place. 🙂 Have a great President’s Day, and thanks for stopping by.
