Earthquakes and Painting don't mix

One of the many joys of living in California is the weather and the beach....the other joys, are the earthquakes.....I hate these things....not only do you not know they are coming or how big they are going to be, but you always seem to be doing something out of the ordinary when they happen. Today my son Gavin and I are redoing his bedroom....so pretty much all of his bedroom is in the hallway....making it hard to move. I really don't need to tell you the rest...sure you can figure it out...but here it goes....start jumping over a bed and almost fall on my butt to get to the stairs to yell at my son to run to a doorway....as the house is shaking and my pictures are falling off my table downstairs....like I said I hate these things......and to make it worse....it was centered in the area where my husband is taking the Bar. He finally called me to let me know he was ok...but all the 6,000 students taking the bar had to duck to avoid getting hit by the ceiling panels that were falling to the ground.....all I can say is, it is great living in California.
