    That was quick! I didn’t even have time to worry about how to get through the weekend without this place. Yay!

    • Dulcie March 14, 2019 / 2:01 pm

      Ditto for me! I was worried!

    I will forgive your lack of a wombat yesterday (it was Wednesday, wasn’t it?) for your technical difficulties.

    I can report that the new location loaded MUCH faster for me, so there’s a win. Good luck with the rest of the migration!

    I like the way you’ve decorated it…

  4. dubravkamcvmd March 14, 2019 / 12:21 pm

    Yippee! That was fast! And my name and email appeared. Hope it sticks and this all works out, for all of us!

  5. Tina M March 14, 2019 / 12:41 pm

    Yep – my name & email were populated and I haven’t posted in a while. Hope this new host gets you past all the difficulties Mike.

    Yeah for new hosting of the cute!

  7. N. Fritz March 14, 2019 / 1:02 pm

    I see the new website, but my browser (Chrome) flips out because the new address isn’t https. It tells me to that website isn’t secure and to go back to safety. I thought that was just a wi-fi thing, but it happened on my phone’s data plan. Is this temporary (i.e. will the site go to https?) or do I need to adjust my settings?

      • Blue Footed Booby March 14, 2019 / 3:09 pm

        Every few months my company’s IT team somehow manages to cause ALL websites to return that error. For a second I thought I’d have to choose between filing a ticket or getting back to work, lol.

  8. N. Fritz March 14, 2019 / 1:03 pm

    Oh, and I can’t edit my typos! ((shudder))

    • Not That Mike The Other Mike March 14, 2019 / 1:15 pm

      The comment editor should still be working. It’s working for me as of this moment.

        This is NTMTOM, commenting as an an anonymous user.

        • Mister Fake March 14, 2019 / 1:20 pm

          Hmm, it would appear that the editor is not working for anyone but me when I’m logged on. OK, I’ll have to work on this.

          • Comment Tester March 14, 2019 / 1:24 pm

            This is a test using a different browser

            • random test March 14, 2019 / 1:27 pm

              another test comment.

              • Random Test March 14, 2019 / 1:28 pm

                another test

                • Random Test March 14, 2019 / 1:32 pm

                  Yet another test

                  • Sedro6 March 15, 2019 / 12:37 am

                    Random Test, you should be in the moderation lounge for being boring. Sorry for the dust. No one’s been in there for a long time.

                    • Not That Mike The Other Mike March 15, 2019 / 9:36 am

                      I know, right? That guy was all “this is a test” this and “this is another test” that, which is why I deleted all his posts. Zero imagination. Sad. πŸ™‚

  9. beemoused March 14, 2019 / 1:25 pm

    Can we have a website warming party?

    • N. Fritz March 14, 2019 / 2:41 pm

      Brilliant idea, Beemoused!

    • debg March 14, 2019 / 3:12 pm

      Yes please! It will help calm my racing heart after this morning’s DANGER WILL ROBINSON announcement from Chrome.

    • Ricky's Mom March 14, 2019 / 6:06 pm

      Can I just say that I love your moniker, Beemoused?

  10. Lucy's Mom March 14, 2019 / 1:25 pm

    It still doesn’t populate my name and email but hopefully that will resolve itself. Mike, thank you for all your hard work. You must know how much we appreciate it. And you.

  11. Lucy's Mom March 14, 2019 / 1:27 pm

    I stand corrected. My name and email ARE there. Yay!

  12. Luv Bunny March 14, 2019 / 1:36 pm

    I can read the Welcome to the new Host but am presuming there isn’t a pic or witty story πŸ™ . Hopefully up and running soon.

  13. fkaWaldenPond March 14, 2019 / 1:41 pm

    Hi all and thank you so much Mike! There is a little alligator or crocodile avatar up on my tab– is that you or the host site that puts it up there?

    • Not That Mike The Other Mike March 14, 2019 / 1:41 pm

      That’s my new host. I need to replace that with something. Thanks for calling that out.

    • allein 🐾 March 14, 2019 / 2:15 pm

      I don’t see an alligator or crocodile. I feel cheated.

      But at least it’s Pi Day…(they had no good pie in the cafeteria, though. πŸ™ )

      • N. Fritz March 14, 2019 / 2:43 pm

        I wanted to make a pie for one of my classes today, because we’re learning about food, AND pie charts. I ran out of time last night, but I am hoping to pull it off for tomorrow (Granny Smith Apples already bought, just need to take the time to put it all together!)

          • Dulcie March 14, 2019 / 6:25 pm

            Pi day is just another fake holiday made up by the math people to sell more math.

            • allein 🐾 March 14, 2019 / 7:04 pm

              I was told there would be no math.

              • Dulcie March 14, 2019 / 7:25 pm

                You should have put two and two together…
                😁

                • allein March 14, 2019 / 7:51 pm

                  Five, right?

              • SoccerSue March 14, 2019 / 9:01 pm

                I don’t do math on Thursdays. I can do pie any day, though. πŸ˜‰

                • allein March 14, 2019 / 9:17 pm

                  I’m with ya’.

  14. Elaine C Williamson March 14, 2019 / 1:44 pm

    The new host is showing secure on my Safari browser.

    • Ricky's Mom March 14, 2019 / 6:07 pm

      Mine, too!

  15. dubravkamcvmd March 14, 2019 / 1:46 pm

    Whoops! Name and email gone again!

  16. Julie March 14, 2019 / 2:33 pm

    Working for me!! YAY! Thanks, Mike!

  17. allein 🐾 March 14, 2019 / 2:48 pm

    *whispers* My name and email are still here. Shhhh….don’t scare it away.

  18. Dana March 14, 2019 / 3:29 pm

    Thanks Mike!!

  19. fkaWaldenPond March 14, 2019 / 4:18 pm

    I didn’t want to mention this before (add to your site woes) but on the previous host site, for the last week or so every time I would add a comment my email would be hit with a bunch of really junky spam mail. So, far nothing yet today!

  20. Alice Shortcake March 14, 2019 / 4:50 pm

    Testing

  21. Alice Shortcake March 14, 2019 / 4:51 pm

    Yep, it works for me!

  22. Ricky's Mom March 14, 2019 / 6:10 pm

    I am delighted to report (at 6:09 PM EDT), that not only did the site load super-fast, but also that my log-in info was preserved! Yay, Mike! And, Yay, New Host!

  23. murkle46 March 14, 2019 / 6:34 pm

    • murkle46 March 14, 2019 / 6:35 pm

      cool,photo posted!

      • murkle46 March 14, 2019 / 6:36 pm

        no click to edit feature,but it did remember my information

  24. Kar March 14, 2019 / 8:27 pm

    I e had trouble pulling up the site on several browsers, tell me it’s an unsafe site. So far can only pull it up on safari

    • Not That Mike The Other Mike March 14, 2019 / 8:31 pm

      Sorry about that! The problem you saw has been corrected and the site should load in secure mode on any browser.

  25. Amyliz March 14, 2019 / 8:37 pm

    Thanks, Mike, for this wonderful site! I loved the Old Ranch and was so sorry at it’s demise but grateful everyday for this site, even if I am not daily commenter!

  26. Smartypants March 14, 2019 / 9:46 pm

    It’s working for me – no flashing lights or sirens. I’m on a Mac desktop running Google Chrome.

  27. AJ March 14, 2019 / 10:25 pm

    Thank you Mike!!!! And so glad to see the roll call of all my Qte friends.

  28. Duckie πŸ₯ March 15, 2019 / 12:08 am

    Duckie checking in.

    • Duckie πŸ₯ March 15, 2019 / 12:10 am

      Personal info retained, but no correct feature.
      Oh, well. I’ll just have to watch what I say.

  29. SoccerSue March 15, 2019 / 12:57 am

    Testing to see if my info will be retained and if the edit feature will work (Samsung tablet using Chrome).

    • SoccerSue March 15, 2019 / 12:58 am

      Yes. And no.

  30. dubravkamcvmd March 15, 2019 / 8:58 am

    Info retained! Thanks Mike!

  31. 6puppers March 15, 2019 / 11:49 am

    Happy to see things are back and running. Must have been a huge hassle for you!

  32. dubravkamcvmd March 15, 2019 / 3:18 pm

    Well I guess my info will be retained only on occasion. Having to type everything in each time is annoying but hardly a tragedy.

  33. Faye March 15, 2019 / 6:49 pm

    Faye glad to be here. Thank you Mike. We need the cute more every day.
