Tracy Bates, COO & Co-owner HeyDay Entertainment If you’re anything like me, you’re cautious about where & how you spend your time & dollars on entertainment these days. It’s frustrating to shell out your “fun” money on a bad experience, and it’s even worse if you don’t feel safe while you’re doing it.

Did you know that they’re LOCALLY owned? I honestly had no idea myself until recen…

I ain't lyin’, y’all. My Momma’s doctor called her in a prescription from Six Flags, on a weekend because Mom was able to shoot her a quick text about her symptoms! Here’s how it normally works: (You probably know this rigamarole.)I feel sick. I call the doctor's office. I wait, press three, then leave a message, only to find out that there are no appointments today or tomorrow. When I finally get to see the doctor, I wait an hour past my appointment time, spend exactly 4.2 minutes with the doctor, leave with a prescription, and have to swing through the pharmacy on the way home...If this sounds familiar, you might…have SEEN A DOCTOR in the past decade. Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not blaming doctors, it’s not …

In the ever-shifting sands of style and personal expression, tattoos are often bold statements of our moments of passion, dedication, or whimsy. Yet, as the ink settles, so too can buyer's remorse. What once seemed a perfect piece of self-expression can turn into a visual misstep that one wishes to erase. Too bad tattoos are permanent…or are they?  Thankfully, tattoos CAN be removed. Let’s face it, we all know someone (it may or may not be us) who has some ink they "Ragret" lol. Laser tattoo removal works by targeting tattoo ink with pulses of highly concentrated light that break the ink into tiny fragments, which are then naturally cleared away by the body’s immune system. This process is fascinati…

In today's healthcare environment, where figuring out insurance policies and getting access to doctors seems to become more impersonal and transactional day by day, Direct Primary Care (DPC) aims to be the change. Have you heard of this new concept? This innovative healthcare model is rapidly gaining traction in Norman, Oklahoma, among other areas, as it offers a more personalized and direct relationship between patients and their primary care providers. Direct primary care is a patient-centered model that simplifies the approach to primary healthcare. By eliminating the insurance middleman, DPC allows physicians to focus solely on the patient. Under this model, patients pay a flat monthly fee that covers most primary care s…

In addition to the sound of the dishwasher, the washing machine running incessantly, and the teenager yelling at his video game, another sound has been a constant companion for the entirety of my time in this family. That is the tippy-tap sound of Sascha’s feet (and the bell on her collar), our 16 year-old Shih-tzu. We’ve always joked that she is part cat, full of energy, self-sufficient, and accepting of affection only on her terms. As I write this, we’re just a few hours away from an appointment at our veterinarian’s office at Grant Square Animal Hospital in South OKC, where we’re afraid it’s time to say goodbye.  Sascha came into my wife Amy's life as a beacon of hope amidst personal upheaval. Rescued from a …

If you grew up in South OKC or Moore, The Christmas Connection might sound familiar to you. As a kid in Moore schools in the 80s & 90s, I clearly remember collecting pennies & toys for drives to benefit them, but I never really understood what they were for. Years later, as a single mom who found herself humbly shopping in a church for my boys at Christmas, I understood more. Now, as a local business owner & supporter of nonprofits, I finally understand their full light and mission, which shines so brightly across 3 Oklahoma counties. Christmas Connection is a beautiful example of compassion and community spirit here in the metro area. Under the leadership of CEO April Jolley, Director of Development Bailey Kest…
