Did You Think I Quit?
Once again , we’ve been having major issues with our hosting company. I highly recommend NOT using dot5hosting. And that’s all I have to say about that.
Also, for anyone who tried to send me an email to laurie at goodhappenings dot com yesterday, we also ran into a problem there since my email was hosted by that same aforementioned crap company. Soooooo, I’m not even sure you would have gotten a notice that it bounced…obviously a problem for me right now as I’ve been trying to contact people (deans, program directors, chief residents, etc.) regarding my career decisions. To say this has led to some stress is a bit of an understatement. Nonetheless, I think we’re close to having everything back in working order (thanks to Travis). If you did email me and don’t mind hitting resend, I’d greatly appreciate it!
I have a serious backlog of posts that I’ll be publishing over the next few days. If you are reading this, THANK YOU for bearing with me. I was pretty sure I’d have lost all my readers and blogging buddies after this, and that would just make me really sad.

So happy to have you back! I was afraid you had decided that you didn’t have time to blog anymore. We would all most certainly miss the Good Happenings!
I did miss you!! I am glad you are back though. You should check out my blog…we got news!!
I was worried you had just taken it all down and that I would loose a little piece of daily joy in seeing your beautiful babes! Glad you’re back- hope you get the email glitches worked out…that’s so frustrating…
Glad to know you are still here. I thought your site got shut down from all the controversial
topics…hee hee hee!!! I saw all five of you in Parents magazine. Very nice family.
Hi Laurie,
I was worried when I came by and only saw the title of a post and NOTHING more. I was sad to think you had closed your blog and thought of how much I will miss reading your posts and seeing your beautiful children. I am glad your back and that you had not left bloggy land. Sorry about the problems you are having with your host..that sucks!
Um, hello - you have 3 kids. To have you absent from blogging - makes me think that you’re probably just busy with life! Although I have really missed your updates
I hope you get things sorted. Very frustrating that…till then, I’m hanging around
You can’t get rid of us that easily - you’re stuck with us all whether you like it or not! Glad you’ve got some posts coming up and the host glitches are being worked out…
Glad to see you back! I figured you were having some glitches. Way to go T for sorting it all out!
I can’t wait to see the upcoming posts….
I was so worried that maybe you had just quit! Oh I am so glad! I’m not sure what I would do without my 3 under 3 fix!
Silly girl - of course we are all still here! I can’t wait to hear what your career decisions are!
I was worried that something had happened. I’m glad you guys are all right. I’m an adoptive Mom whom has gained so much from your blog. Thank you for all the time you put into this. Glad to have you back.

You are back! YIPEEEE! I thought I “lost” you guys.
Can’t wait to catch up.
I was wondering what was going on! I was going to email you today but am glad to see you are back! Looking forward to all of your posts..
Of course we are still here! Hope things are back to normal with the site. Can’t wait to hear about the career stuff.
Thought something must have been up. It looked like your blog had been wiped off the face of the world wide web. Glad to see that wasn’t the issue.
Girl, you’re on my bloglines… you can’t ever get lost of my radar!
Thought was my computer that wasn’t letting your site load!!! So glad you worked it out. I actually did send you an email yesterday about a HOTSLING. Will be happy to resend.
Aw crap. Don’t say that! dot5 is the company we’re using to host our adoption website. BOO!
Am very glad that you are “back.” I was hoping you weren’t closing up shop here.
I was worried that you had unceremoniously left blogland. So glad you haven’t!!! I can’t wait to hear about your career decisions too.
We wouldn’t leave you! We love reading about your family, and checking out pics and videos of your gorgeous kiddos.
Welcome back! I was expecting your blog to look completely different or something… thought maybe you were “under construction”
Are you kidding?? Of course, we missed you!! I guess I was just worried. Yes, I also tried sending you a quick email(not that you “know” me or anything, haha!!), but, nonetheless I am sticking around for all that is yet to come.
Thank god!! I was ready to call the troops… to make sure you were not kidnapped. Then I thought having three kids they would have given you back by now….. Just joking!!
Anyway I missed you guys.. I can not get enough of little Finny… and the little guys too! Glad your back
So glad you are back! Just wanted to let you know I am still here and reading. Hope it all works out.
Oh, I was worried. I thought your hosting provider had dumped their servers or something. And the only email address I have for you is tied to this site so I didn’t think that would be working either. I am SO glad to see everything is back up and running! My boys love seeing your babies as much as I do! BTW - I sent an email to you about a week and a half ago about a mutual acquaintance. Did you receive it?
phew….
I am anxious/excited to hear about what/how you guys are processing the next steps for your family…
I just thought you were very, very, very busy with three little kids because, ummm . . . who wouldn’t be?
Laurie and Travis,
Hello, I found your site through a friend adopting from Vietnam. I love your site!! We are adopting from China and have been waiting 27 months plus, for our daughter!
I received my “PARENTS” Magazine today and much to my surprise there was a great article about families created through adoption. And an even bigger surprise was to see your family featured!! Great job!!
Terri
I ran across your blog in December while working on a dossier for VN. I have followed your “adventures” ever since. I was shocked to see you in my newest issue of Parents Magazine today!!! Congrats to your family on being highlighted in the magazine!
I just saw your gorgeous photo in PARENTS mag! Woo hoo!! Are ya’ll happy with the article? I think it turned out great! (I recommended ya’ll to the writer and was thrilled to see she found you!!)
Please, do you really think it is that easy to get rid of all us. I must say my heart skipped a beat when your site did not come up. I have a serious blog addiction and you are one of my faves.
Hope all is well on the home front!
Melissa
Yes I thought you’d changed webhosts and I’d never find your blog again - would be sad as I enjoy hearing your news, commentary and seeing your beautiful kids. Though our Vietnam adoption did not work out, we are getting close to finishing our dossier and may be dossier to California in September or October. Stacy
Glad you were here when we checked in today! Welcome back.
Hey Laurie!
Gotta know where the “Twang Fest” is …
We’ve been traveling all over the frickin’ state this summer … gypsies, we are, indeed. It’s been great. I’ve thought of you often and hope you are finding some peaceful moments to contemplate your future in medicine and motherhood …
Laurie- I was thinking perhaps some weird blog stalker had kidnapped you and we, your faithful readers, would never know what happened to you! I tend to over dramatize occasionally but I must say I am thrilled that you are back!
