I know I live in Southern CA. I am not even close to any danger right now, but am in between all the major fires. I have ones in the south, north and west

We are right in the middle of here as well. We are between the fallbrook, escondido and San Marcos fires. Fortunately the san marcos one is contained.

The school I work at is in one of the evacuation zones where a bunch of homes have been lost. I just had to email my professor "um, sorry but I left that assessment for the project due wednesday at school over the weekend. Not sure when I can get it or if there will be anything left to get"

Molly is out here too. She is in an area closer to evacuations. Told her to come here if she gets the call or gets nervous. We look ok in the way of not having to here. Not yet anyway.

You sleeping tonight? After waking up to this I am not sure I will sleep much tonight

Yikes, I thought it was bad with our tornados! A lot of neighbors have some major clean up to do this week, but we were very lucky! I didn't sleep much, but that's a small price to pay!

same here on glued. I work in escondido in that southern part where the fire jumped the 15. My mom lives in San Marcos so when I woke this AM to the news of the fire near CSUSM I nearly had a heart attack until she finally left. She went back tonight against my better judgement but she wasn't listening. That fire is contained. I have class there on wednesday. When I go back to work and class it is going to be a freaky sight.

Oh my! I didn't realize you were so close. I was hearing some scary stories on the radio earlier today about families being awakened and not having time to even grab clothing to put on before fleeing. What's so frightening is how very fast and unpredictable those fires are. I hope you're all safe (and can breathe after all that smoke)!

Hi all,

I saw the news yesterday and was thinking of you, Renee. And now Molly and everyone else, I'll keep you in my prayers too.


Living in Hurricane Alley, as I do, I tend to pay close attention to natural disasters on the news, more than is probably good for me.
