thanks melissa, I got knocked around a bit getting the kids away from the brick fire places in their rooms and
our chimney, house and car and lots of stuff is smashed but we are all happy to be alive..even tho my wardrobe fell on my bed after I got out of it... I lay in bed all last night with one eye open...the aftershocks have been pretty unnerving but knitting is helping with that!
