Almost on a daily basis, I get a lot of the same questions in my Instagram DMs from y’all. While I NEVER mind helping my girl gang out and sending links, I wanted to compile a post of all of the most frequently asked questions from this past month.  These range from home stuff, FWTFL (Next Round Starts TODAY!!), Nordstrom Anniversary deals, motherhood, the recent HACK (EEK), and more!

Blogger FAQ: Your Top 20 Questions

1. HOW did you get hacked? – EVERYONE

• I was recording Eric’s Nordstrom Sale Try-on and thought “Oh, it would be cute to get a boomerang in the Instagram app of the boys in the mirror with him.” I opened up the app but couldn’t login. Within 10 minutes of checking on multiple phones and accounts looking for @mylifewellloved with no results, I got an email from my hackers asking for payment in broken English. I’ll share all the details later this week in a post but I got in touch with Control Alt Protect, by the grace of God, through a friend of my sister, and they did a search for my accounts on the dark web. We found out my email associated with my Instagram was hacked back in 2017 and again in late June. We believe that the hacker, over time, pieced together enough information to login to my account and change the username and email on the account so I had no way to login. It has been a nightmare… I’m still in recovery mode… lost sleep, missed bedtimes with my boys, missed meals, spending hours on the phone, text, email, and direct message trying to find ANYONE who knew someone who could help me since Instagram is basically useless in helping unless you find an internal contact. Stay tuned for my post later this week where I’ll share more details. However, I can tell you that the Lord made himself evident every step of the way…I am so grateful for His faithfulness and for each of your support and love through this whole ordeal. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for sharing my account and being so supportive!
