Earthquake*

Now that is what I call an Earthquake--it shook everything. I was in my car at a red light when all of a sudden my car was shaking--I totally thought my idle was off on my car, I pulled into the Grocery store/Bank--and a lot of stuff had fallen off the shelves in the store and Alexis was saying, "Mommy, did you hear everyone talking?--it wasn't our car it was Earthquake"--then my cell phone started ringing, it was Kevin--he felt it too and he was in San Diego about an hour from San Clemente--5.4 earthquake--whew--Hope everyone is okay.

I am checking in to let everyone know I am just fine!!!
Quarter of a million people felt it--WoW!!!!

I am right in Between Los Angeles and San Diego---I can't even tell you how many earthquakes I have been in. I will tell you something though, The tornado sirens in Georgia scares me more then an earthquake--how about you?

Thank you all for checking on me ((Hugs)))

I am so glad you are ok, Julieann! I remember a couple of earthquakes when we lived in San Diego and I didn't like them at all!

Yikes! I am also glad you are okay! I'm too far north to have felt it - it's been ages since we felt one here.

I thought of you when I heard about that, too!! And I am so glad you're all just fine!!! =)

I don't know about tornado sirens, I think they would scare me a lot, but earthquakes scare me, too!! I grew up in the Bay Area. The 2 big ones were when I was in Kindergarten and again my Sophomore year, and I was home alone and pretty scared!! I'm glad we don't seem to get them here, but it would be just my luck there would be a big one when I go back to visit my parents some summer!! =)

Scary! I would have been terrified. We get tornado warnings around here a lot and had a couple small ones. I still think I would rather be in an earthquake than a tornado. I don't know- how about neither! I love watching your 'baby' grow on your sidebar.Isn't birth just so amazing? I can't really tell that you have a tummy yet from the pic below. Looks flatter than most women I know who aren't pregnant! LOL!

I saw this at 11pm last night when I was watching the news. My first thought was, I wonder what part Julieanne lives in!

Glad you are ok.

We get tornado sirens all the time here, so even though I don't like the idea of a tornado I think I'm more used to the sirens than I would be to an earthquake. You don't get any warning with an earthquake, do you?

Little tremors are pretty common not far from where I live in Tennessee, but I've personally never felt them. The prediction is that our state will have a big earthquake one day, as Memphis is located right on a fault. The western part of the state was hit pretty hard with an earthquake in the early 1800's. My great-great-grandfather wrote an article for a newspaper about how the people in this area felt the tremors, even though they were far away from the earthquake's center.
