I can't even imagine being in such a devastating earthquake as the one in Haiti. I've purposely avoided the footage. I just can't watch it. They're going to need prayers for a long time to come and plenty of aid.
Doll, I have been thru FIVE quakes and they don't make you feel good.

The first substantial quake will keep you awake for weeks. Every creak of the house and heavy truck theat drives by puts you on edge and you get that sick feeling in the pit of your stomach.

Every aftershock is an adventure.

Your butt cheeks clench, you get up on your arms, if you are sitting and start to think about which way to run.-then it's over.


I have been on the pot when an afterschock hit and for a split second thought about being found in the pile of rubble with me pans around me ankles!

You wave bye-bye to storms, flood and stuff like that. Quakes? you never see them coming.
