To put it another way, it's hard to recover from a wound that gets ripped open two or three times an hour.
Let's take a look at the most recent earthquake map, shall we?

The seismic resonance causing 'quakes to spread across Alaska is obvious. Eventually, the lay of the land (literally) will find a balance, and the tremblors will stop. USGS says that could take two or three weeks.
So, I wait ...

Should I send prayers for patience?.....:-)
It couldn’t hurt.
Was looking at the maps yesterday and sympathizing. Unfortunately, you are right at a plate boundary and the grinding away of the plates as they shift is grinding away at you, too. The comparatively smaller quake we had a few years ago in the DC area was quite enough for me - I can't imagine enduring this constant shaking.
PH, there's no place up here that isn't on or near a boundary. But I'll be perfectly happy for the tremors to grow smaller & less noticeable.
You will need all your patience. The 1964 Good Friday aftershocks lasted for more than a year. Small comfort, I know.
*hugs* and God bless and comfort you all.
WSF, I hear you. Of course, that one was a thousand times stronger than this one. Either way, it's going to last for awhile, and we'll eventually get used to it. Sigh ...
Thanks, Linda.
