Hey there,
I do not see a post with that name under your site. Just to make sure, what is site URL that you wrote the post under. Also, on what type of device did you make the post on?
Let me know, thanks!

Hi there,
I checked your account and the history shows that Six Months In post was moved to the trash and deleted. Do you remember moving to post to the trash?
-
No – I saved , previewed and published. Then had dinner and went I went back to it, it was gone.
Any way to recover it? -
Hi there,
Unfortunately, there is no way to recover the content of the post once it has been trashed and deleted. There are two users under the account. Did the other user delete the account under your name?
-
No, I was having dinner with him. I can understand how I might have deleted something in error but then to go ahead and delete the trash??
Thanks for checking into this so quickly. -

Interestingly enough, my sister received the email from my blog with the missing contents – except for the pictures. So she has forwarded the email to me and I will retype and post and add the missing pictures.
I still think it is strange that somehow I deleted the post – and then deleted the trash… I will be super attentive to the next post to see what happens. -
I agree that it is strange – especially since I saw that you had two other posts in the trash, which means that you would have had to trash and delete that specific post – something that I am sure you would remember doing.
Great to hear that you at least got the content back through email.
