I started a thread about the earthquake in the "off topic" area, I did not see this one....

We are in SE Indiana, and we felt it. No damage, no reports of injuries. My hubby is a 911 Dispatcher, and he said the phones were ringing nonstop... He had just pulled into the parking lot when it happened and said that his truck was shaking/rocking for about 10-15 seconds.

I had been in bed, and woke up scared and the hair on my arms and back of my neck were standing up. I layed there and wondered what had woke me up, then my hubby called to make sure we were ok... My dogs did not even wake up... I told the kids about it when they woke up this morning. They thought I was teasing until they saw the news on tv...

I wish I had felt it! I feel disappointed that I was sleeping when it happened. I heard there may be aftershocks, so maybe I will get to experience it later today...

I hope everyone closer to the epicenter are ok and no damage to their homes! We do not have earthquake insurance around here.
