Plus, the fear of not being able to comfort your kids when things are happening. It was interesting seeing how many Moms were frantically driving towards the school, looking to see that the building looked alright, then slowing down. After the destruction in my workplace (I still haven't been back - the damage is still being assessed) I had just a pit in my stomach thinking about my kids. I suppose once I go back to work and start to get things back to normal it will be different - but being in limbo still, it's kind of hard. My brother (the sane one - the other one couldn't care less) called me almost during the earthquake - he'd heard in Spokane (across the state) what was happening, and wanted to check on me. I wasn't around - we were evacuating the building at the time (I think). I told him his sister was hiding under a desk listening to the crashing of computer monitors and feeling the floor move..... He was so nice and caring about it - just like you guys..... Sounds strange, doesn't it - that I would be so touched by people caring!

I am so sorry that you had to experience that earthquake. It was so scary seeing it flash on the news that it had hit and how large it was, I knew you were up there but had no way to find out how you were. It was all scary for us too but I know I am so happy that you are okay. Funny, after we experience earthquakes like that, my therapist wonders why I have a fear of disasters...*LOL* Take care girl.
