Mirror Mirror on the Wall
The controversial, plastic, duck-lipped, attention-loving blonde star of the Hills, Heidi Montag, has some serious self image issues, right? But let’s be fair…don’t all women? I do….too many to count! I don’t really know the psychology behind it but in my case, I’m thinking it has something to do with my childhood and not having…
SPIRITual Moment
The Spirit Event Center in Bixby, Oklahoma has big problems! I was horrified tonight during Julio Iglesias’ concert. The Spirit Center has to be the worst venue I have ever stepped foot in and not just because it is ugly. The much-anticipated performance brought the Hispanic community together—which was cool– and although attendees started on…
Stories Matter
On Wednesday, I had an opportunity to give a speech to an amazing group of women who are part of the Metro Tulsa Career Professional Women. I talked about stories. The stories we tell matter. The stories we listen to matter. Stories connect us in this confusing and often crazy game of life. In my…
Ghost Story
Do you believe in Ghosts? I didn’t think I did, but things change… I bought the building where Community Care College is located from Tulsa-based QuikTrip Corporation.

I can explain it all; however. Personally, I think the label is over-used. Let’s check out the so-called symptoms: Short…
Clique Here
I’m really into fears, phobias and compulsive disorders. People suffer from so many and it makes me feel a little sad, but relieved. At one time I shared with you that I used to be a kleptomaniac. Well, I also HAD compulsive lying syndrome! Long story short…I was a poor kid and wanted other kids…
I'm OK, You're OK
Today, I was visiting with a friend of a friend who is from Boston. Let’s get specific…it’s my good friend (and Director of Career Services) Linda’s friend, Ernie. “Welcome to Oklahoma,” I say…as I always do when I greet a new visitor! “So…have you ever been to our fine state?” Nine times out of ten…
Acid Trip
So….I took time off this week to get caught up on stuff that I’ve been putting off…dental appointment, blood work, homework, household chores, TJ Maxx shopping, personal paperwork, end of summer yard clean up, etc. To maximize this time, I decided to partake in a few personal “beauty” tasks as well! Got a pedicure, purchased…
