WOI TV

Hello all ! I know its been a long time since I last posted but I was just wondering if anybody knows what is going on here in Des Moines WOI TV has called me and asked if they could come out and talk to me for the 5:00 & 10:00 news ( they only do that when there is something going on and most of the time its not something good) at least they have always done more positives than negative stories . Anyway just thought i would ask and see if anyone had an ear to the ground !!!! I hope everyone is doing well , it sounds like the weather is going to be colder after today so stay warm.... thanks Bill

Havent heard of anything strange or weird going on around Des Moines - Maybe they are short on stories so they are just digging for a story to do. So are you going to be on today????

This is from KCCI (channel 8 in des moines) but it might have something to do with it. http://www.theiowachannel.com/health/2782329/detail.html

Oh sure- blame the fat folks for every little thing! I've never been particularly militant, but all that may change! This week, I was called a "big, fat pig", a "****", and a few other choice words by a very angry child at the school where I work. Now I'm the school sectretary, and not responsible for any disciplne of this, or any other child. I understand this kid was pissed, BUT I resent the fat pig remark. I've lost 100 pounds in 6 months! Will I always have the "fat" stigma attached? GRRRRR! Fortunatly, the principal was called many of the same names- this child is currently taking a few days off to explore the error of his ways. Must be a good day to vent! By the way, I am now in size 26 jeans- the first time I've worn jeans in 25 years! Jeri H.

Terry Congratulations!!!!!! That is such a fantastic accomplishment. About the comments it's hard to deal with I know. Words hurt worse than actual weapons sometimes. Thank goodness I don't deal with anyone else kids but my own because I would have to kick butt (and get fired for it). More importantly you are doing something to improve your health and lifestyle. Jeans are DA BOMB! It's a huge accomplishment. What did size did you start out as? Paula
