did you feel the earthquake?

There was an earthquake yesterday morning! I thought I was just crazy and imagining things until someone else mentioned it. I was laying in my bed at about 7:30 and all the sudden I felt someone shaking my bed. It was enough to make me look over and wonder who was in my room shaking me! Then I noticed the cords that hang down from our ceiling fan were swaying. I was getting pretty freaked out and wondering if there was another one on the way. That would be awful. I guess it was in Nevada and we felt it all the way over here.

I guess it was a magnitude 6.

Last night I was trying to decide where we could move so that we wouldn't have any natural disasters. The coasts have hurricanes, then there is tornado alley, and we have earthquakes. I don't think we can get away from it. YUCK. So did you feel it?

I didn't feel it and usualy I am kind of a light sleeper so I am surprised! I didn't even know about it until I saw it on the news last night! Crazy huh?

Hey Erin, Do you do digital scrapbooking too? I use a program called scrapbook factory deluxe. It has an option to put a border around the picture so it is pretty easy. I know that most people use photoshop to scrapbook, so I'm not sure how you could do it using that program.

You guys had an earthquake? That's crazy! If you want to get away from natural disasters, the safest place in the U.S. is the Four Corners area. So you could move to Blanding or Bluff.

I didn't feel ANYTHING! You felt it? I must be a deep sleeper. Yes...I must admit I was sleeping that late.
