Like all similar tragedies, it kind of slaps us in the face and makes us better appreciate what we have. That pain, that unpaid bill and that annoying neighbor just don't seem so important.
Coffee Break #55 More rain coming!!
you have the right - here we are worried about a broken jm branch or two - makes the ice storm a few years ago seem like nothing
Yes it does.
very hard to watch & glad that those with the cameras are safe.
Those slide before and after pics are amazing.
It wasn't his time.
Amazing story.
The videos are just terrible....but I was expecting a huge wave......it's just that it hit such a heavily populated area.....how prepared is our West Coast?
According to the show on Nat Geo last night - not very. It focused not on the expected northern CA quake, but a huge one expected off the coast of Seattle.
and a bit of the one along the mississippi. surprised they did not touch on glacier.
Wow - meltdown in three reactors.
Tomorrow marks 15 years in my house! Cannot believe it.
Wow - they're predicting another monster quake - around 8.0 - might hit them on the coming days.
US Navy put more distance between themselves & the reactor.
If another 8.0 quake hits, it will be total panic....those people need to get away from the coast!
We interrupt our scheduled depressing news with some uplifting good news....
WE ARE IN LABOR!!!!!!!!!
Great! Good luck!
Joy!
We had some good family news too. Twin girls on the way for my cousin.
What a miracle! And twins for your cousin.....very cool!
Hopes it a smooth delivery.
What a miracle baby.

I gained respect for the culture when I was at work... long story short over the weekend the father was practice driving with his daughter on a permit.. she lost control over the car and it slammed into a small outbuilding .. actually went though a wall and inside it... monday morning they were there fessing up to the damage.. I always said how many American people would do that if no one was around to see it???
culture solidsarity on an island where everyone must cooperate. However, they have their 'baddies' also. Let's hope that they were too shocked by the events to operate.
Nice to hear GOOD news!! I was getting rather blue...
Celeste soooo happy for you...best of luck to all♥
Is there a page 2 to that article?....didn't seem to answer his question
Woohoo! Great news, Pixie.
and twins, Victor. Hope they have help.
congrats celeste!
twins are cool victor.
Congrats to both of your families,Victor & Celeste!
- unfortunately I received a phone call from Orlando, Fl about ½ hr ago, my BIL who had been suffering from Parkinson's just passed away this evening.
so sorry about your loss, WC.
DH is taking DS out to the bar, DS turned 21 today.
Happy Birthday to DS Jumper!
Sorry for your loss WC
Congrats on twins Victor
Wow...this is a kinda up, then down, then up again thread huh?
So far no news...looks like Charlie might be born on the15th and not the 14h. Bummer!!
Both Oryanna & Isabella are on the 14th.
Forgot to say congrats on the twins Victor...fun fun fun!
So sorry to hear of your BIL WC, my sympathies♥
He'll share a b-day with IrisMA if it's the 15th.
DS is today and DD is the 14th of Nov. I have a theme going here.
She does too and was hoping to stick to it..the 1st two are girls born Dec.14th and Jan.14th. So I guess if it's a boy it should have it's own date? LOL
yes, won't want to put up with the girls when he is older. In my young day it was tax day & don't think I didn't here about that!
Thanks Pixie, Luvs.
- Thanks to you also Jumper, Happy birthday to your son, wonderful age 21..
Sorry to hear, WC.
