Is everyone OK? Anyone here notice it?

I did! It woke me up. At first I thought Dh was scratching his ear, until I heard the windows rattle!

Oh Lisbet! I laughed so loud, my kids are all running to me saying, "What? What's the matter?"
I am going to refrain from asking about the size of your husband's ears but I wanted to let you know that the visual just tickled me!!
I am glad no one was hurt!

yeah, we live about 70 miles from the epicenter. the windows rattled, and our dresser mirror, but I don;t remember the bed shaking. honestly, being from Oregon, I woke up, (it was around 4:30 CST) woke up dh, we decided, yep, an earthquake, and fell back asleep!! WAY less scarier than the tornados that whip through here and destroy entire manufacturing plants 15 miles away! way less scary even than the high winds we had a few days ago, that destroyed many of our trees, and ripped up our neighbors roofs.
all what you are comfortable with I guess!

My mom just called asking if we were okay. We didn't even feel it! But it looks like some Cincinnati folks did.
Hope everyone's okay!!

I vaguely remember the bed shaking. I was just starting to drift back off after a few hours of tossing and turning. I thought it was my husband, because he has a tendency to tap his fingers and stuff when he is awake and anxious. I nudged him a little and then it stopped. I guess he was an innocent man...this time.
