I Feel The Earth, Move, Under My Feet.........

literally this morning. Many of us here in the Midwest got a shock this morning when we felt our beds and homes shake, rattle and roll. There was an earthquake located near West Salem, Illinois this morning and was felt as far away as Des Moines, IA and Atlanta, GA.

Here is a link to the article on the AP news wire: Earthquake Shakes Midwest

I woke up hearing the handles on our dressers rattle. I thought one of the kiddos had come into the bedroom and bumped into the dresser. So I turned on the light and they started rattling again and I saw the ceiling fan move. It lasted for 10 seconds roughly. So I turned on the radio waiting for the local news and sure enough we had an earthquake. The kiddos were mad because they slept through it, LOL!

Ya, long time, no post. We've been busy around here and it will get crazier with softball and T-ball starting now and planting just around the corner. I can't complain, it is good to be busy.

Later...................
