Yes, We Do Have Earthquakes In Illinois

If you purchase something after clicking on the links in this post, I’ll probably earn a few bucks from it. We aren’t talking enough for a mansion or yacht but more like chocolate and wine. And if I mention a product, I probably got a sample and possibly a cash payment. Remember that all Thoughts, Ideas, and Ramblings are 100% my own and may not represent your experience.

Seriously. We do. I was laying in bed at about 4 am this morning, and all of a sudden my bed started shaking. I was watching to see if Madison's school was going to close (it didn't). Honestly, it was the weirdest thing ever. To be honest, I was really confused and then the news came on at 5 am and said that we had a 4.3 (aff) magnitude earthquake. We've actually had thunderstorms worse than this earthquake (as far as shaking the house!). The epicenter was about 48 miles west of Chicago.

So 9 inches of snow and an earthquake, is it the end of the world? LOL
