Getting my Google Analytics back

The traffic report from Google analytics had been 0 almost a week before I found out the reason. The thing is, days ago, when I was moving part of the content in the old sidebar into the new one, all code within that part got accidentally deleted, and I had not back up any thing (oops..). I got them back little by little and finally get the page back to this original look. That's the beginning of the story, I totally forgot about the tracking code for analytics. And, not so excitingly, here's the end of this story: I went back to Google analytics, log in. In the "Website Profiles" table appeared on the first page, I clicked on "edit" for this site in column "settings". In the next page, it saids "Receiving Data" on the top right, which is, say, not true. I clicked on "Check Status". There appeared the status info and below is "Instructions for adding tracking", I found the "New Tracking Code (ga.js). Then the code is added back to this blog, which means, hopefully, Google Analytics should give me a proper report tomorrow.
