I MADE IT!!!

Hello everyone!!!
Just wanted to let you all know I made it to Mpls
and had a very relaxing day of doing nothing. It was SO nice!
I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Sarah, who rocks my world and made my trip go OH SO FASTER by driving most of the way while I slept so I could rock the rest of the trip out when I became solo. What a friend! My time at home is going to be full and crazy but I am shooting to soak up some sun while I am here and help with the wedding planning. GOODTIMES!!!
Hope all is well and talk w.you SOON!!!

I love the way Minneapolis looks at night! 1 Day to Go and

my FIRST Earthquake!


Yeah, I said Earthquake;

it was yesterday night at 8:06 pm and registered at a 4 on the scale. The epicenter, position on the surface of the earth where it starts, was 3 miles west of Glen Ellen, Hanna is 3 miles from Glen Ellen, so right down the road! How exciting! I was taking a friend to the airport and we were in a shop 2 miles on the other side of Hanna when all of the sudden the mirror on the wall started to shake and glasses started to clink together, just like a big truck was going by...

We looked at each other and thought it was strange that everything was moving and then the sales lady

said that that we just had an earthquake.

It wasn't scary at all. Just kind of weird and like a

train/truck rumbling outside the building.
Overall, it was not bad for my first experience.

A scale so you get an idea of the size of the quake...

Earthquake Magnitude Classification

0 - 3 Micro

3 - 3.9 Minor
4 - 4.9 Light
5 - 5.9 Moderate
6 - 6.9 Strong
7 - 7.9 Major

8 and higher Great

Ok...on to the main event...

Well it is almost here...Time for the rode trip home!!!

I am ready for a little R&R in Minneapolis and to get back to Children's World. I am excited to teach again and to see how much my children have grown! But the thing I am most excited about is being done at 6 everyday! :) It will be a change from my normal 12-14 hour days that end at 10:30pm. 9-6 is ideal at the moment, only if the real world work like that and paid you what you THINK you are worth! Don't get me wrong, I love Hanna and what I am doing but a raise would be nice with all the things I have going on and that lately every thing needs some money sent its way. To be rich and not worry about bills...the life of some people! Oh well, I think I am better off being happy and poor! It seems to work for me and I have so much fun being me!

Hope all is well and will talk w.you guys soon!!!

Have a great weekend!
