Happy Halloween

We went out trick or treating. The girls got a bunch of candy, it should last them for a long time. We had lots of fun.

Earthquake

Sunday was an interesting day from the start. I and Cheyenne were lying on the couch watching television when the couch started to shake. I looked at Chey and asked, “Why is the couch shaking?” She just kept watching her show, shrugged her shoulders and said, “I don’t know.” Then it dawned on me, an earthquake that’s what all the shaking was about. I urgently pushed on Cheyenne, “Get up, get up!” I grabbed her hand and pulled her to the doorway, and I called Gipsy over to us.

After the ground calmed down I went upstairs to wake Bret up, but he was awake already. “That was cool, did you feel it?” He asked me with a big grin on his face. A minute later the whole house was shaking again. Then we lost power and it was gone all morning, all day and a part of the evening.

Luckily no one was seriously injured or killed during or after the earthquake. I guess the main worry here in Hawaii was tsunami. We did not get one of those so our feet are dry, well except for the rain we have been having. Today is sunny so no more rain either.

Sweet Lightning (the cat) is home, all skinny, and her fur was crawling with nasty flees. I put something flee killing stuff on her I hope it works. Death to all flees! Princess was so happy to see Lightning and jumped on her as soon as she noticed her being home. The cat might be getting pissed at us again because we have not let her outside since she came back home.

I have had my first week of school, and now my brain hurts. English should not be too hard, but Speech I am going to hate for sure, Biology grrr! I think the teacher might have been talking in Chinese because I was totally lost. Most of the class was spent on chemistry, dang chemistry is complicated. I am not looking forwards to having to take an actual class in it.
