Technical Difficulties

September 9, 2015September 13, 2015 by Joy

We went away for Labor Day and when we got back, my site wouldn’t load at home. Turns out my IP was blocked by the server… Very strange, but it’s fixed now. I’m a little behind on posts because of it. My vacation turned out to be a little longer! Posts will resume Monday.

Going forward, posts will only appear Monday-Friday. Turns out I need a break sometimes too!

Happy Labor Day!

Because I do not have infinite space on my server, the images on this site are of lower resolution than the original scans on my personal computer. If you would like a full resolution scan of any particular item, post a comment or send me an email at joy@joysephine.com and I would be happy to oblige.

Unless otherwise noted, the original documents and photographs that appear on this site are in my personal collection and were originally scanned and processed by myself.
