Stay safe Florida, though it looks like the path is actually going toward our coastal GA/SC members.

Found an interesting take on the ALS ice bucket challenge.

All I know is I felt like pouring a few ice buckets over my head by 10 a.m this morning. cantstopl

I was making 1/2 rounds and find one of my patients sitting on the floor. I say to her: How did you get on the floor? Her answer: It was easy. no no

Good for you for doing it!

One of my HS friends has changed the challenge to giving to your favorite charity. Since we are having a wounded warrior lunch on monday with dishes from 5 continents. Hubby and I are donating five dishes and providing all the taster cups, so have it covered. I will give ALS some money come new payday on September 1st.

I hope all those effected by the earthquakes the last few days are doing okay.

It's bad enough there are earthquakes, then they happen in the middle of the night. I can't imagine. I hope everyone is safe.

Gov. Jerry Brown declared the state of emergency on Sunday morning just hours after the magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck around 3:20 a.m. local time, jolting residents of the San Francisco Bay Area from their beds.

Dazed residents too fearful of aftershocks to go back to bed wandered at dawn through Napa's historic downtown, where the quake had shorn a 10-foot chunk of bricks and concrete from the corner of an old county courthouse. Bolder-sized pieces of rubble littered the lawn and street in front of the building and the hole left behind allowed a view of the offices inside

It was quite a shaker! We are 100 miles south but it woke us up and se the house creaking! Nothing like 1989 but strong enough to know it was at least 6.0.

I am so glad this isn't near me, but feel for my fellow Canadians out west. This is crazy! Geesh!!!
