So, a friend of mine may be able to restore my blog posts I lost last year. I've missed my blog so much. all these years of blog posts. all the words I typed and thoughts and pictures and things and this and that. I have enjoyed having a computer in the house because it's allowed me time to work on my blogging. I am not too annoyed with the Wix blog app, but because of the bs with what I've experienced when the host person I had my old site and my blog hosted on decided to b
