Crazy weather week!

This week will go down as the craziest weather week ever.  It began with an earthquake....5.8 on the richter scale and then a series of aftershocks that I somehow managed to miss.....strangest feeling EVER!

Hard to get a photo of an earthquake...

 Then, the smoke from the Great Dismal Fire nearly choked me yesterday.....

and then today, Hurricane Irene is hitting Richmond with LOTS of rain and wind.

This makes for a quiet day of blogging,

catching up on my magazines,

eating,

Homemade 4 cheese pizza

television,

and hanging with the pups......

hopefully there will not be any flooding but happy to have an excuse to stay home.....
