5.8 Magnitude Earthquake

The earthquake was centered in Chino Hills... about 26 miles from my work! All my family and friends here are fine! I am doing better, lol! I am on cold medicine and work next to railroad tracks so we feel shakes all the time... This one was different and me being on medicine didn't help matters. I was already dizzy and lightheaded... it took a few extra seconds to realize it wasn't a choo choo train going by and then I said "Oh Sh*t, it's an earthquake" while on an important phone call at work! Got to love my professionalism, lol! Thank the Lord for my door being closed in my office... I could have gotten in trouble. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080729/ap_on_re_us/california_earthquake

So now that you know I have a cold, it's minor but it has completely taken away all of my energy. I began feeling "punk" yesterday morning and thought it was allergies... NOPE! Later in the day that felt like FOREVER... I realized it was something more... (sore throat, stuffy, and energy depletion)! It took all of my willpower to attend my tap class... I have missed an entire week and felt the need to go even while feeling punk! Afterwards I was supposed to attend a non-mandatory TNT meeting... I canceled... took a benedryl and went to bed!

Woke up this morning and still not feeling well... the appetite is still their but energy is still LOW!
Today before our earthquake, I canceled the OC Fair plans with my mom for tonight and canceled my running for tomorrow with Paul and Amantha. Today and tomorrow are for me to rest after work!

Back to yesterday, to my surprise Jeremy decided to attend my tap class. He sat in the back and watched as we tapped away for the full hour. OUR Super Guest for the night... I let my tap teacher introduce him to the class as I am stage fright even with my tapping friends! He may make another appearance on Thursday night.

This week is going to be a bit different for me and it's definitely for the better (except for catching a cold). Jeremy is off work from FedEx this week... taking a vacation! So all of my friends and family besides Jeremy are put on hold as this week is for me to spend extra time with my wonderful hubby!

Another announcement I didn't mention yesterday is my brother John got married in Jamaica to a wonderful sister-in-law Mitzi on July 28th! I don't know much of the details since I am in California and couldn't afford a trip to Jamaica but here is their site: http://www.mywedding.com/johnandmitz/index.html! Their will be a Luau Reception at my mom's house on August 9th at 4pm, which I will definitely be attending! That will be a big weekend for me!

August 9th is Kickoff for TNT from 8-12 then I have the Luau Reception 4-? and will end our day at Disney at midnight!

August 10th is our 5th Wedding Anniversary and I am spending the whole day with my love!

Lots of excitement around here the next couple of weeks!

I plan on running long miles (10mi) on Saturday... so pray this cold leaves me just as fast as it came on! Also please pray for the Chino residence and all those affected by the quake today. Pray that we have no injuries, deaths, or severe damage! Thank you!!!

:::PEACE::::
