Success!

We have homepage. Sheesh, that took forever. I guess it’s true that it’s easier to build than destroy… the deleting process to mere minutes; the upload lasted nearly two hours!

What I’ve just realized, though, is that you are getting this story backwards. You’re reading the last journal entry first. Oh, that is SO unfair.

You already know the happy ending without having first passed through the nerve-racking dance on the edge of the abyss!

Why was I so freaked out? Because while I’ve built homepages before (um, you’re reading one them right now), I’ve never had to “pull the plug” on an old site and replace it with a fully functioning new site.

How many of you have ever erased an important file by mistake, and then had to pay dearly with everything from annoying error messages to complete computer meltdowns? Well I just had to erase 1,541 files! Nervous? I was sweating bullets! (And the one thing Guatemala doesn't need is more ammunition.)

There’s still plenty of testing to be done on the site during the next few days. But the good news is… there’s actually a site to be tested!
