Backups are good..

So I’ve been out of the hospital for a couple of days and my mother is doing some shit for her brother and needed a hosting account setup. Easy will take me all of 5 minutes to setup and install Joomla for them.

Well no fucking wrong, me being a dumbass and having no business working on anything at this point in time didn’t check what directory I was in, and instead of deleting the new accounts public_html folder I managed to delete my own. This is why the site was down a couple of hours while I sorted the backups being sent to me.

This reinforces two things for my mind, 1) backups are a good thing and 2) never touch something important after just having surgery and getting 7 holes put in your chest and stomach.
