Thanks everyone - writing through a haze of tears, can't sleep, every time I doze off we get another aftershock. Just when my nerves were getting back to normal.

Once again we have been so lucky - the hardest part was trying to get to the school, normally a 10 min run from my work took an hour. DS was very upset and is worried about going back to school but as that won't be today we'll cross that bridge later.

The business is fine too (coffee house)and so long as we get our coffee delivery we should be able to keep going although we may run out of food as the supplier has no water or power. We will probably be busy as after the last one people needed to be around others just for comfort and of course the caffeine helps.

I'm keeping everything crossed for those still buried and pray they all get out alive. Wish us luck and an end to the rumbling.
