Sorry your blog has been deleted

Mini me & I 

Well I'm back.....& so is my blog.  

I have been gone for so long because Google

deleted this blog & mini-me's blog while we were traveling Europe together.

I have traveled before on this blog & posted & commented with no problems.

This time we were in London, France & Portugal & we were not really going to post

 but when we found a cool charity shop with some awesome fabric & frocks

in the middle of London, this came up:

"there has been unusual activity on your account, type in your phone number to 

verify your blog"

I thought right away this was a scam & no way was I giving out my cell phone number (never mind the international charges)!

I closed the page & went to log in again & this showed up:

Blog has been removed

Sorry, the blog at SewCoco blah blah has been deleted.

Seriously Google?  It's not like if you even read my blogs or you would

know we are traveling & WTF do other bloggers do when they

freaking travel?  We had the correct password!!  

By the time we landed in Portugal our blogs had been completely

deleted.....if you typed in mother daughter sewing/fashion.....we were gone.

Middle daughter-The Model

A few months later I returned to Vancouver & finally have time to sew again.
Mini-me does not want to continue our other blog as she has moved on to
Instagram & twitter which she likes for ease of posting & commenting,
but I did miss this blog - because this is where I
documented my novice sewing with my 3 daughters.

Mini-me was the first of my daughters to take interest right away & after 6 months

of sewing we started this blog together.

My oldest - rare appearance on this blog


So I gave Google my cell number now that I was back home & they text a code,
which I entered & voila, I had this blog back.  They didn't even verify that
this was me & indeed my cell phone....what do others do that
do not have a cell phone?

Lesson learned - back up your blog & maybe try another site?
Wordpress? My own domain? or just instagram & twitter, the
fast, barely there communication?



Rant.....over.... next up....a little sewing!
