Return to Story Index11 SWINE FLU RIVERSIDE
THAT'S ON THE HEELS OF THE FIRST INFORMATIONAL SESSION-- HELD LAST NIGHT. AS RUDI RAYNES REPORTS, THE SMALL TURNOUT DIDN'T DISAPPOINT HEALTH OFFICIALS..THEY THINK IT COULD BE A GOOD SIGN PEOPLE ARE UNDERSTANDING THE VIRUS. :Nats: Meeting Just a little more than a dozen people showed up for monday night's swine flu town hall meeting at riverside high school. But dr. Rahul gupta says he thinks that means hard work to spread awareness about the virus is working. It tells me most folks are comfrotbale and are taking the precautions Representatives from the kanawha charleston health department and kanawha county schools were on hand to answer questions and put rumors to rest. :nats: If someone coughs around you, within 6 feet of you, it's quite possible you could be exposed. Joe armstrong says in some ways he was disappointed in the meeting... This is a very serious health issue. I thought there would be a better turnout But he was satisfied with the information from the panel. He said thus far pediatric deaths are at 127 nationwide and we haven't even began to reach peak season, seasonal flu anyway. Mike huffman's whole family came to the meeting. We all had concerns and we hear so many things. We wanted to ehar from people who know what they're talking about But even after all their questions... Huffman says the future is his family's biggest concern. Im still concerned the virus is getting to the point where it's out of hand and there needs to be more oppotuntiy for vaccination not only groups but every should have the chance to get the vaccination AGAIN, THE NEXT SWINE FLU TOWN HALL MEETING WILL BE HELD TONIGHT AT CAPITAL HIGH SCHOOL... AND ANOTHER ONE THURSDAY AT ST. ALBANS.

Return to Story IndexBABY STEPS 11/2
BUSY MOMS NEED HELP SOMETIMES... IN THIS MORNING'S BABY STEPS REPORT, A LIFE-STYLE EXPERT GIVES YOU A COUPLE OF TIME MANAGEMENT TIPS YOU'LL WANT TO REMEMBER. WITH 72-PERCENT OF WOMEN WITH CHILDREN OVER ONE-YEAR OLD, AND MOMS WITH A FULL-TIME JOB RESPONSIBILITIES, MOTHERS SPEND 13 HOURS EACH DAY WORKING AT THEIR JOB, AND AT HOME. IF THAT DESCRIBES YOU, THEN LIFESTYLE EXPERT, TARA ARONSON SAYS DON'T STRESS... JUST ORGANIZE AND DELEGATE. SHE'S WRITTEN ARTICLES AND BOOKS ON TIME MANAGEMENT MAKEOVERS FOR OVERWHELMED MOM'S EVERYWHERE. HER FIRST TIP? ELIMINATE MORNING MADNESS. TARA ARONSON/LIFESTYLE EXPERT YOU CAN DO THAT BY PREPARING THE NIGHT BEFORE. FOR EXAMPLE, I'LL HAVE THE KIDS PACK UP THEIR BACKPACKS, AND LAY OUT THE SCHOOL CLOTHES/UNIFORM, AND MAKE SURE ALL OF THAT IS READY. THEN, I PLACE THOSE BY THE DOOR. SO ALL WE HAVE TO DO IN THE MORNING IS GRAB THE LUNCHES FROM THE REFRIGERATOR, TAKE THE BACKPACKS AND OUT THE DOOR WE GO. TARA'S SECOND TIP IS TO CONQUER THE CLUTTER. TARA ARONSON/LIFESTYLE EXPERT I HAVE WHAT I CALL A HOPPER, OR BASKET ON THE KITCHEN COUNTER. AND THAT'S WHERE, AND THE KIDS KNOW THIS TOO, EVERYTHING IMPORTANT GOES THERE. MY KEYS GO THERE, ANYTHING THE KIDS NEED ME TO SIGN INITIAL OR TAKE CARE OF, IT ALL GOES IN THERE. AND IT'S THE LAST THING I CLEAN OUT EVERY NIGHT. ANOTHER TIME MANAGEMENT MAKEOVER TIP TO USE, IS THE MASTER SCHEDULE, AND CHORES. TARA ARONSON/LIFESTYLE EXPERT PROBABLY THE EASIEST WAY TO SAVE TIME IS TO CREATE A FAMILY SCHEDULE. YOU WANT TO HAVE THAT SCHEDULE SO WHEN IT COMES TIME TO DROP THE KIDS OFF, AND RUN ERRANDS, YOU CAN LOOK AT THE WEEK AHEAD AND SCHEDULE THESE THINGS IN, SIMULTANEOUSLY. FOR MORE DETAILS, AND TO SEE THAT STORY AGAIN LOG ON TO WCHSTV.COM
