There were so many aftershocks, didn't get much sleep @ all...as soon as I dozed off, a jolt would startle me up. Mimi was very sensitive to all the aftershocks, she would start shaking, that's how I knew we had them, the ones I couldn't feel. Dang, I thought it was the end of the world, not kidding, it was so loud, it was rocking, shaking motion, I ended up on my knees, not sure if I lost balance or got weak knees from being so scared. I couldn't do anything, couldn't grab any of the fur butts, they were scurrying around here & there, trying to hide. Things were being knocked over, glasses breaking, the angel porcelain collection my aunt has were decapitated!
Here's some cell phone shots of the damage in Fullerton, there were a couple of busted pipes which caused sinkholes in the ground. Some people had no water & there's many damage to the homes. There's so many cracks inside & outside of my aunt & uncle's home. My Dad is there tonight to fix things that fell (blind covers & lighting fixtures). I couldn't stay there any longer, felt the aftershocks this morning too, couldn't wait to get out of there! As we were leaving, there were news vans, taking pics.
How lucky is that car!

We felt a very soft sway out here. It lasted a VERY LONG TIME. First thing I did was check on Kaji to see if he was even reacting to the quake. He was cuddled into my leg and did not notice. |
Have fun! The P clan got so lucky!
