Wild and Wooly



Well folks, it's been a wild and wooly few days here in Toronto. First off we had an earthquake here. Not a big one, but one big enough to make the pictures on my wall swing back and forth. One big enough to make my cat Lily's tail puff up in fear for 10 minutes. I have been through 2 other earthquakes and none lasted as long as this one. It was probably about 15 seconds long. The others I felt lasted about 5 seconds. It kind of freaked me out that it wasn't stopping right away. No harm was done and everything went right back to normal.

Then the G20 summit came to town...



The above photo is taken from my balcony. It was taken moments before the riots broke out. You may have heard about the riots. They were all happening right outside my home. A little nerve racking to say the least.
I am hoping that tomorrow everything will be back to normal and I can go back to my day to day life. Minus any natural disasters or mass hysteria :)

While watching the G20 stuff on TV, I was kind of worried about you are your kitties! Hope everything is back to normal today.

Glad you're safe and sound!

Funny, isn't it?... my kids know you as "the lady who painted the bunny print" that we have hanging about our bunny's home. They saw me looking at your blog post, and were all worried about you.

Art connects people, and your happy art makes us all want you to be happy, safe, and sound!!!
