site gone

    When I clicked on my site this morning a form came up for setting up a wordpress blog. I thought this was some kind of mistake so I went ahead and wrote in the name of my site and password which I had to repeat of course. Unthinkingly, I went ahead and logged in and then of course I got a brand new blog. But my original blog is gone to never-never land apparently.

    I’m not sure that my blog version was 3.2, but several days ago, maybe it was a week, I upgraded my blog to the latest wordpress version.

    Would this be related to the Zero-day bug? Any way I could recover my original blog??

    OK, my son-in-law helped me out and simply re-installed using my previously saved database. What he thinks happened is that when I upgraded to WP 3.2.1 I skipped over the “save your database” part. I remember doing that to save time. Fortunately I save databases once a week so I had the previous one. Now I’ve learned my lesson and will try not to be so cavalier again.
