What Am I Waiting For?

So...I STILL haven't updated to WP 5.0 (well...5.0.2 now!). I'm not exactly sure why.

I think part of it is I HATE change. I'm also terrified I'm going to royally screw something up with my website! I'm also a procrastinator, so all of those things combined are a bad combination. lol

And not to mention the instructions to do all the back-ups prior to updating are seriously confusing. Am I the only one that hasn't made the update?

Other than that everything is going very well! I still haven't made any money, but I know that will come with time!

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year! :)

Please, don't be scared of following up with changes at all. There's no harm in changes and the new versions never hurt anyone out there. I am up to date with the WordPress latest version and there's no problem at all. Things have rather got better with WordPress than in the older versions.

Hi Isreal and thanks for letting me know. I think I'm just worried about getting everything backed up more than anything!

Ahhh, the dirty word ,the P word, as in procrastination.
Loathe that word. Been guilty of this word ,,
I now try to complete the things I don’t like to deal with first.
It helps,
Best wish ,

Thank you, Maxine. I have been taking my time, but sometimes I feel pressure to make the switch.
