I'm Currently Feeling: | Woke me up too. And hubbie and I've always said it would take an earthquake to wake him!  12.57 when I looked at my watch, and I'm still up. Can't sleep now.
5.3 apparantly in Market Rasen - that's 65 miles away from me and it shook the whole house! http://www.quakes.bgs.ac.uk/recent_e...nt_events.html
Good news is that it fixed my broadband!!  I'd spent 2 hours last night trying to get a connection, but it down to a faulty wireless router and gave up, but the earthquake turned the light from red to green!!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I live in California, and we get earthquakes all the time. They still scare me tho, and we get some big ones... We used to have a couch that was elevated from our floor, and our puppy likes to go under there, and you can feel him moving the bottom of the couch. Well we had a decent sized earthquake, and I was sitting on the couch with DH. It started shaking, and I called my dog (thinking it was him). I realized when the whole windows and everything in the house was shaking that it wasn't him. It was scary tho, first one I've really noticed since being pregnant.
Glad you ladies are all ok !! They can be really scary!! |
