Earthquake!

Yikes! Could you feel it where you are? A 5.9 magnitude earthquake can really rattle your nerves. Luckily everyone in my family is ok. I will feel better once my hubby gets home from work. I hear that traffic leaving the area is a huge mess.
I was at work in meeting (#220,981 of the year that started yesterday) when the quake hit and we were all stunned and scared. My immediate thought was of my little boy and according to his teacher the earthquake did not wake my little one from his nap. So I got to him as quickly as I could.
When we got home there was some minor traces of the quake. Some things had fallen but no real visible damage. I know this quake will be the talk of the town for a little bit of time.
