Taylored Expressions – Unexpected Outage

Hello All! I hope you’re having a relaxing Sunday. I received word that one of the servers in the same building as the server that hosts my website, Taylored Expressions, caught fire last night. Over 6,000 servers are offline. I don’t believe any data from my website was lost, but it is taking time to get the servers back up and running after the fire. I appreciate your patience and I will keep you updated on the status!

Taylor-

Wow what a disaster! From someone who has worked in the IT world, Everything will be okay. There will be backups. These types of things are tested frequently during the installation of the servers!

Oh, no Taylor! That must be scary for you and everyone else! I did get my order the other day and love my monogram stamps. I will be using them tomorrow and tuesday to make teacher gifts. I hope all returns to normal quickly for you! :o)

I have no idea what the computer language for all this is…but my thoughts and prayers are with you and for your community because of the fire.

Yep, mine is one of the 6K servers LOL, I’ve been down and without email since yesterday afternoon, its getting booooring! I don’t think we lost anything cause the physical “boxes” with our servers were not in that building, just the T1 lines and transformers.

Found your blog via Pasadena search and I love it. As an IT manager this post makes me panic! LOL. It’s what we would refer to as a Severity 1.

HA! Someone else that doesn’t like coffee! I thought my hubby and I were the only ones! I don’t like the smell either! Great card, Taylor!

I’m with you on the coffee thing… I can’t STAND the taste, but, unlike you, I actually LOVE the smell! My hubby laughs at me, since my kitchen is coffee/gingerbread man decor… and I don’t like coffee! However, there is always hot chocolate, hot tea (which is not a favorite of mine, either), or steamers as an alternative! Love the card!

SASSY!! I love everything about this card especially the reds and pinks.

I’m sorry that the coffee smell makes you nauseous. And, you are not alone in the non-coffee club. I came from a family of coffee drinkers and my DH, DD, & 2DS and
2DIL don’t particiapte in the ritual, LOL.

I’m glad you had a good time at Stampmania and you didn’t let not having your camera interfere with
with having a good time. TFS.

Yay! Yay! Yay! Finally somebody else who not only doesn’t like coffee, but doesn’t like the smell! LOL I can hardly stand to walk down the coffee aisle at the grocery store. I always get hot chocolate if we have to go somewhere like Starbucks. 🙂

This is just precious Taylor!! Love all the paper piecing. And I’m with you on the hot chocolate … it’s the only hot beverage I drink.

This is an amazing card… and if I’m not mistaken it fits the criteria for the Caardvarks challenge that is currently going on. You should enter it! WTG!

It turned out so adorably! I too am a non-coffee person. Chai lattes, however, are my weakness. Mmmm, caffeine, sugar, and spices! I love the larger patterned paper at the top to balance the cute polkadots at the bottom! Very sweet!

SO cute!!!! Although I am an avid Starbucks junky (compliments of being a Senior in college), I can understand the distaste! Adorable card, I love it.

Taylor, you are not alone in your dislike of coffee! I just never acquired a taste for it…saves us money on lattes…more for stamps! LOL!

Oh my gosh! How adorable! I don’t drink coffee either and the ironic thing is that my husband worked for Starbucks for two years! I always ordered a hot chocolate or a tea (if I needed to “look” good.) LOL!
