Of course, you're not! I'm in shock!
I remember offering that piece sometime ago... but hadn't heard a thing... so I thought they decided not to use it. Which is fine- either way! whatever...
Well that is exciting! what a stir that piece caused when I first posted it on the main forum months, & months ago... everyone was telling me to leave the bum!
I can't wait until I get my copy!!!
Woo Hoo... Wouldn't I like to run into my 9th grade English teacher now!!!! Ok so it isn't the NOVEL I told her I was going to write... but it is in print!
Glad I'm sitting down... I might faint!

I can't wait to get my copy. I don't get OH Magazine so I am glad Yvonne will be sending it to us.

Do you have it handy anywhere? It might be a couple of days before I can get to it. I've got to film the WLS News in the morning and I'm researching the site I'm going to highlight. OR....if any of the other members that have the magazine have time to type it, that would be AWESOME!
Proud of you!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree taking it with you is a good way to keep focused on success.
It is especially nice when we see pieces about or by real people that we may have communicated with here online or at the very least ones that we have seen their posts. It makes the journey real... unlike those magazine articles at the cash register that promise fantastic weight loss... "I LOST 6 DRESS SIZES and YOU CAN TOO!"
and it turns out it was someone who started out as a HUGE...
size 12 and now is a 2!
WE know the people in OH started out OBESE some more so than others... but we have all struggled ... fought the fight....failed too many times... and finally decided to bravely undergo a surgical choice to weight loss success.
I think the 50% off offer is still on... so hurry and get your subcription if you don't have it as yet!
Now if I could only find a way to start making a little extra cash from my scribblings... my husband would be thrilled.... maybe one day....
