Boy can I count on you, I had just heard about the earthquake and my first thought was of you and your family. I should have known that you would have blogged about it already It's all about priorities right? Hehe
Glad things are good but I am sure that it was a bit unsettling. Hope you don't have too many aftershocks.

Whew! Glad to hear you are okay! Reminds me of the time there was a tornado where we lived. We were on a late night wallyworld shopping trip and they made us all hide out in the shoe department... still can't figure that one out lol.

You wouldn't happen to live close to me do you? I got called out to start an IV and left the facility, and went to Wal-Mart right before a big Tornado hit this area a few years ago. Very Scary!!

Kathy,

It's my job! Gotta keep the world informed ... heeheheh!

Juli is about 20 minutes from West Salem. No wonder she was scared!

The roar and the sway was the weirdest of it all.

Acccording to our news people around here were calling in to report the earthquake this morning. I think we are around 500 miles away from you and it was felt here. All I can say is those are some light sleepers. I can't believe that they felt it that far away. It sure does make you think about the power of those things doesn't it? Glad Juli is okay, I am sure it was very scary for her. Oh and my vote for your dad's letter, save it for Father's Day.

Um, no, not unless that was in Texas? It happened in Fort Worth... I live in PA now though. You're right, very scary. I remember finally making it back to the house and everything was ruined except the living room, so the whole block came and sat in my living room all night, drinking mucho amounts of wine, trying to figure out what the heck just happened!
I never thought I would say this but Thank God for late night Walmart trips! LOLOL

My son lives in Davenport, Iowa, and he woke up because his bed was shaking.

Wow. I had no idea that earthquakes even happened in your area. How scary! I'm glad you all are alright, though, and you didn't even lose your internet! Now that's good technology. hehe

I'm glad that everybody is ok. I can't imagine what experiencing an earthquake must feel like!

Welcome to life SoCal style! We haven't had a shake like that in awhile- we're overdue I'd say- maybe you got it instead We just had our "Shake 2008" drill at school. Fun, fun, fun! Glad everyone is ok and that the kiddos missed it.
Hugs!
