The Associated Press: Quake in western China kills 400, buries more

Rescue workers search for survivors at the site of a collapsed building in Yushu county in western China’s Qinghai province on Wednesday, April 14, 2010. A series of strong earthquakes struck a far western Tibetan area of China on Wednesday, killing at least 400 people and injuring more than 10,000 as houses made of mud and wood collapsed, trapping many more, officials said.

I haven’t done any research to find out if the trend in these higher magnitude earthquakes happens every so often, or if this is something new that the planet is experiencing. If anyone knows, please post and mention where you found your information.

My heart goes out to the people of China, and I will keep them in my thoughts.

Hurry up and wait

Got the referral from our family doc so M can get an appointment with someone for her depression. Now I have to wait for them to call me to make the appointment, the recording said 24 to 48 hours until they call me back. Then, it’s 3 to 4 weeks for an appointment. Awesome, eh?

As for me, my algebra class is fairly remedial, any high school student could do it… but I am no high school student, and I have never been very patient with math. Week 1 down, and 8 to go. Human services in the US is the other class I’m taking, and I am really enjoying that one. I am doing alright in that one also, and that class is in it’s 3rd week.

I’ve been having some intestinal things going on, and have been feeling sick for two weeks now. I cannot eat much, and when I do I end up in a lot of pain about 45 minutes after eating. I am back to eating a yogurt for most meals, and some rice or toast when I need  more. Lots of water too, can’t forget that.

That’s it for now.

Teen Depression


My hope is to find a way to help M with her depression. I hope that with better eating habits, more exercise, and with some required quiet time every day, she will feel better physically, which will in turn help her to feel a little better emotionally. I don’t know how this is going to work for her; but I am willing to try with her, and I think we will have a positive change in her general well-being and attitude about herself.
