Early Saturday morning I opened my eyes and realized my bed was swaying. I asked myself, "Am I still asleep and dreaming?” The swaying stopped. Then I felt the tremors in my stomach as I tried to go back to sleep. Then it happened again. My bed began to rattle and shifted from against the wall. I sat up and tried to comprehend what was happening. Was it just REALLY windy outside and our top floor flat was falling subject to it, or was it something else?
Tuesday morning I read this...
