I hope your Easter was as lovely as ours...however it ended with a quake. Still getting reports from relatives in San Diego.
I was on the potty when it hit. Not the greatest place to be...and for a second I thought..something was wrong with the toilet. I HURRIED out of there and the family was milling about or sitting stalk still with that worried look. Some were so busy that they nearly didn't notice it.
My sister, who lives south of San Diego said it terrified them..that water sloshed out of their pool and the children were screaming. Things fell in the house and her pictures on the wall were all crooked...
After shocks are still happening down in that area.
I have not been able to reach my aunt and uncle and they are right on the border of Mexico.
Gotta run...
All's well with me and mine...as far as I know at this time....
Love and hugs...
Mona
I heard about the earthquake on the news this afternoon. Glad you & yours are okay!

I just emailed you Mona, I should have checked your blog first. I really hope all is well with your relatives. What poor timing for a quake. I know it's serious but you made me laugh. From the update I just read on Yahoo! it doesn't sound to bad, let's pray they're right.

Hubby just went off to bed a couple of hours ago and told me there had been a quake in Mexico and felt in California. I have relatives a bit further north in Calif. so expect they are all okay. Glad to hear you and yours are okay too, Mona.

Glad you are OK Mona. We have some extended family and friends down in San Diego and are waiting to hear that everyone is OK.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are fine. I didn't even know we had an earthquake till I read it here. Hope the rest of your family are okay too.
ReplyDeleteOur son who lives in La Jolla called to tell us about the earthquake... hoping to let us know before we heard about it on tv. When we heard the magnatude we sure got concerned. We lived through several good size shakes in Mexico and my husband went through a terrible earthquake in Mexico. They do shake a person up for sure. So glad you are okay!

ReplyDeleteUsually we hear about Your earthquakes directly, but this one I´ve missed. I can imagine that it is terrible going through them and never knowing if it is the big one! I´m glad that You are ok!
ReplyDeleteTake care now!

I was driving home from a movie with my sister and my other sister called us to make sure we were ok. We didn't feel a thing. We were right down the street from my house and when we came inside I noticed the water was still splashing out of the pool. Crazy. I did feel the after shocks.
ReplyDeleteSure hope your aunt and uncle are ok.
Hugs,
Joanne
Mona!!! keep us up to date...I hope your family and everyone are all safe...you stay safe...prayers are going up for you!
ReplyDeleteHi Mona,

Mona, I thought of you last night when I heard about the quake. Glad things are ok there.
ReplyDeleteI started prayin' for ya'll the first I heard to the earthquake. I'm so glad you and your family are good. I'll continue to pray for your aunt and uncle 'till you hear from them.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great day! I'm sure a potty is no place to be durin' a 'quake!
You have a blessed day, sweetie!!!
Good Morning Mona, Wow what a way to end the Easter holiday with a bang...scary. I've never experienced an earthquake and I hope I never do...I have nightmares about them! Now if I can just get through tornado season without experiencing one I'll be REALLY happy. I hope all is well with the rest of your family and I hope the shaking is over with for all of your sakes. Take care. Maura
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that you are fine! We heard about the quake yesterday. I have not been in one yet, but Idaho gets them too. Let's pray that there are no more quakes for you or any of your relatives!!

Oh, Mona! I'm so glad you're safe and hope you hear from your relatives very soon! I can't imagine how scary this must have been. Take care and be a sweetie,
ReplyDeleteShelia ;)
So glad you are okay. Sounds very scary no matter where you are at the time.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have earthquakes in MI. I'm thankful for that. Take care.
Hi Mona,
ReplyDeleteGlad that you are okay over there. We felt it here and I thought that I was having some odd dizzy spell at first! It still has me on my alert mode...
Hugs,
Dena
How scary! I'm glad everyone is OK! Take care! ♥
ReplyDeleteWell Thank goodness Mona you are all OK!~ That would be so scary....sitting on the toilet was kinda funny though at the time:) Happy Monday, keep us posted.
ReplyDeleteMona, that must've been a scary moment. I went through a few quakes when I lived in San Diego. So funny, one struck when I was doing what you were doing.
ReplyDeleteHope all your family is accounted for and safe.
Warmest Hugs,
Laura
Hope you hear from your relatives soon! How freaky is that about the earthquake. Scary.
ReplyDeleteI only remember one in Saint Louis when I was in grade school. Take care!
Very glad to hear all are safe and no serious damages. My daughter lives in South Orange County and she called me very nervous but quite fine.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're OK. I don't think I could ever get used to those rumblings.
ReplyDeleteI came here from Never Enough Time Blog... I will keep up with your beautiful garden this summer... Love the blog
ReplyDeleteHave a Great Week...

Mona, so glad you had a wonderful Easter in spite of the earthquake. I heard of the quake but assumed most was in Mexico. I had no idea you were in southern California. So glad you are safe - hoping and praying for you relatives in Mexico.
ReplyDeleteHey there Mona, you won my giveaway. Can you please email me your address so I can let Jen at Cupcake Social now and mail your package out to you.

Spokeo is a business that should be put out of business, Mona. I wrote of this terrible company about a week or so ago. Go to the front page, on the very bottom click on privacy & remove yourself. They show everything about you.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know that you are all safe & sound. Have lived thru CA & WA.ST. earthquakes ... MD. looks good.
Hope you had a wonderful & joyful Easter.
Have a beautiful week.
TTFN ~ Hugs, Marydon

ReplyDeleteJust one of the many reasons we moved out of California. I use to be in tears when my wood floors would start to roll a bit and things would fall off the shelves. Glad you and your family are all OK.
ReplyDeletesome scary stuff! i was a geology major in college and i have not seen this kind of seismic activity in my life. i have been telling everyone to watch for a big one in california soon but this was not it. i hope i am wrong!
ReplyDeleteMona~my sis in Hemet called me right after it happened. My son had just returned from his vacation in So-cal, just missing the experience.
ReplyDeleteI was sooo disappointed to learn very quickly after moving to the PNW, we have them here too!
I hope you've been able to contact your aunt and uncle.
Sweet wishes,
Sara
