So we had a few comments yesterday about our site looking different. Well that was a H – U – G – E understatement. Our huge may not be as big as Trump’s, but it was pretty gigantic. You know…like the elephant in the room.
I have no idea what happened. I have been working on cleaning up the sidebar, which should not have changed the overall look of the site. When I closed the laptop before dinner everything looked fine. When I reopened it after dinner…whamo, bammo everything was falling off the right side of the page, the sidebar had totally disappeared and the menu bar was six-inches tall.
Immediate panic call made to my site builder. Got voicemail, OF COURSE! Came back to site and presto, chango things were back to normal.
So wasn’t that fun. Don’t ask me what happened. I do NOT know. I know that the photo of the squirrel and Miss Lisbeth were still visible, so I thank those of you who made comments in spite of our mess.
As we all know, our fur babies like to help us. I could blame everything on one of the Kitties Blue, but the laptop wasn’t even open when the craziness happened. And April Fool’s Day has passed. I didn’t check my horoscope, but obviously my moon was in the wrong house or some such nonsense. MOUSES!
Anyhoo, as I type, everything looks normal. Will it remain that way, or will the ghost in the machine reappear? Only the computer gremlins know. So please keep your paws crossed that whatever went kablooey has magically healed itself. If not, we all may be in for more surprises!
Now for a gratuitous kitty picture. After all that’s what this site is about.
CATS!
We have yet to see your blog looking anything but well dressed. I see Bootsie has a forever home…we are delighted. Cj looks terrific.

And I thought it was my system! Our internet went down yesterday for a couple of hours so naturally I just assumed…… LOL! 😀
Gosh! Did we miss all the fun??? What’s normal anyway? MOL
Many Happy Friday returns of the day! Mom just learned from Brian Drum that Bootsie the cat has a Forever Home! May many Fridays return to report another cat getting a home! Purrhaps Fridays should be called, Forever Home Fridays!
My Mom learned something happy yesterday! Bootsie the cat has a Forever home! Many Happy Meows of the Friday!!
We’re glad everything is back to normal ! One of our friend calls it a “server hiccup”, but we hate it too. Purrs
Don’t you just love technology? I never know what to do when those terrorizing technology gremlins attack various programs and features on my computer. I always have to call for backup (aka, my dad or sister, who somehow have brains wired for that kind of stuff). Well, I’m glad it all worked itself out for you! Purrs!
Mes thinks its the gremlins in the world wide interwebs…they “erased” all the courses that Mommy uploaded yesterday…and it took the geeks at the hosting company 2 hours to figures out how they could have disappeared off the interwebs!!
Then…as soon as Mommy sacrificed a rubber chicken and said a novena to Isidore of Seville (Patron Saint for the Internet)…EVERYTHING was back!!!
Good Lucks!!!
Kisses

It looks fine now. Our menu bar intermittently does that, but yours sounds a bit more extreme. Glad it’s back to normal!
I went back to yesterday’s column because it was a mess when I arrived (yesterday). Today it is lovely – menu bar sidebar and Title all as they should be. But no picture at all – just vast white space (kinda like our weather forecast for this weekend) so I was glad I saw the picture yesterday. Sorta like the old time movie serials.
I think it was a WordPress issue but I think all is ok now.

I didn’t see the craziness but have nightmares about that happening. I’d like to change something but I’m totally afraid of going into the html of the blog. I’m glad it’s back to normal.
Yay! It’s not wonky anymore! Glad the gremlins fixed it back after they messed it up!
We missed the craziness, but we are glad to hear and see that all is back to normal! Looking good, Calista Jo!! 🙂

Sorry you had troubles, all that technical stuff goes right over my head.
Paws are crossed! I didn’t happen to visit while it went Kablooey, but I can imagine that would cause panic.
Well, everything looks okay now. Let’s hope it stays this way. These things can be so frustrating!
Glad it all got fixed.
Well whatever happened seems OK this morning! Let’s hope it stays that way…….as if you don’t have enough to deal with right??!!!! CJ looks rather nonplussed so I’ll assume she’s ok with whatever the blog looks like anyway………..tee hee.
Hugs, Sammy
I didn’t notice anything wrong – but maybe it was before or after!!! Gotta have a kitty on a kitty blog!!!!
My mum noticed it yesterday and thought it was our computer acting up. We are getting rather full on memory and occasionally things look strange. I am glad you have it sorted out again. That is a lovely picture of Calista Jo.
We’re glad you are back to normal again – we came over a few times yesterday but it was all gobbledy goop.
I am still battling computer issues. My computers are great, but my Internet connection is failing me. The wireless connection keeps dropping and freezing. I am supposed to get a new modem that will supposedly resolve it. We’ll see. I hope to email soon. XO
Sometimes our confuser gets all wonky too. Then meowmy restarts it and usually that helps. Some browsers do not support things the same way as others, so if you were using something other than y=what you are used to, that mat have been part if the trouble. Confusers are…well…confusing! We hope your troubles stay away!
We thought that Calista Jo looked so demure and not worried about anything, MOL!
I’m glad things are back to normal!
Awww it is very nice to have you back in the regular format. Misbehaving computers and web hosts…
That pic of the lovely Calista Jo more than makes up for all the shenanigans!
