Earthquake

Hi All, I was out for a walk and the ground shook beneath my feet. It felt like a very short dizzy spell, weird. When I got back to the MH, it shook/rocked for another short spell. I knew then what was happening, an earthquake. A neighbor told me his MH fell off it's blocks, and that the stores in El Centro had stuff fall off shelves. The center of it was about 30 mi's away from us and it was 5 something in strength. That was exciting, hope I am not around for the BIG one.

Been here at the resevoir for a few days, now, and am thoroughly enjoying myself. The shoestring I came out here on is getting shorter, so am on the low budget. Am switching from meat to mostly soy products, including tofu. I have a new recipe book on tofu cooking and am trying different things. Have had it baked, fryed, scrambled, and am looking forward to meatballs and pasta. I know you are all envious and can't wait to try some.

It's another nice day here in the SW desert, 70's and sunny with calm breeze. Wish you all could be here, but I am thinking of you anyway.

Love, Jeanie

This Great Lady Died Today at 4:02 9/26/09

Just a note to let you know Doris made it through the nite, but around 4:30 a.m. her breathing became more labored and she is sleeping more and talking less when she is aroused for medication. They have up'd the dosage of her meds as she seemed to be in more pain. They worked in shifts for meds, all nite and Tina was even able to get some rest....so it is progressing toward the end, but not just yet! I'll let you all know as soon as I know anything. m

Aunt Doris

I am so sorry to tell you that Aunt Doris is in the hospital bleeding internally from a tear in her heart. She has opted not to have surgery and probably will not make it through the day. She is on morphine and resting comfortably. Regina Hospital in Hastings. Janet and I will be going there shortly and will try to keep you all posted.
