đź“° In the news
Debate over tougher traffic penalties: Tulsa City Council is weighing a proposal from Councilor Laura Bellis to let police impound vehicles for three days in reckless driving cases, with drivers paying fees if approved — see what’s being proposed.
Trusted help to avoid scams: Tulsa Responds is offering free tax filing this season for households earning under $69,000 to maximize refunds and credits. Children 10 and under may qualify for $250 to $1,000 deposits — see if you qualify.
Shaping Tulsa’s parks together: Tulsa Parks is asking residents what programs they want, with two surveys open now. Topics include adult classes, homeschool options, after-school activities, and outdoor programs across the city — see how to share input.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.
Highlights this week:

🏆 Gold and silver are heating up
Together with our sponsor American Hartford Gold
Gold just posted its strongest run in decades… and the momentum is carrying into 2026. Silver has become one of the most talked-about assets as investors look for ways to stay ahead of market volatility.
While many are still sitting on the sidelines, others are quietly repositioning.
If you’re wondering whether you’re missing something, AHG has a free guide explaining what’s driving the renewed interest… and how investors are approaching precious metals right now.
It’s free and worth reading before the next move.

🫶 We got your back
Crave‑worthy local wings: When a weeknight craving strikes, Mack’s Wings delivers crispy, crackling wings, loads of sauces, and fries dusted to match. Easy online ordering keeps it simple, so park on the couch and debate your flavors while the napkins wait.
Discover indie beauty: At Tulsa Beauty Collective, explore a part-boutique, part-studio hub for women-led indie beauty and wellness brands, from fragrance to skincare, in a creative, hands-on space. When your routine needs a reset, sniff and sample at your pace, and find something that truly sparks joy.
Weekend fairway fix: Need a low-stress round or quick par-3 dash? LaFortune Park Golf Course serves Tulsa with a forgiving championship layout, a separate 18-hole par-3, and a friendly practice vibe. Bring a buddy, chase birdies, and keep the mulligans to your bag… not your identity.
Thinning hair? It only gets worse: A few months ago, I noticed my ponytail getting thinner. I tried the usual stuff (biotin, shampoo, etc.) but mostly just hoped it would fix itself… until I learned that active follicles can permanently go dormant if you don’t do something about it. The good news? You can get treatment that actually works with no office visits or trips to the pharmacy. Learn more about my favorite online options here.

Someone Googled you this week đź‘€
It may feel like an invasion of privacy, but unfortunately It’s the new normal. Whether you’re joining a committee, selling something locally, dating again, or just meeting new neighbors… people are going to look you up online.
Like it or not, the internet has a way of surfacing past mistakes and outdated information that no longer reflects who you are.
Thankfully, there’s a really easy way for you – or someone you care about – to clean up outdated results that no longer tell the real story. Learn more here.
This house is wild
Zoned commercial on 1 acre with 330 feet of 81st Street frontage, this venue is primed for a restaurant, church, or event center. A commercial kitchen joins tables, chairs, and linens for instant operation. Over 300 parking spaces serve gatherings. Near Tulsa Hills, Tulsa Premium Outlet Mall, and REI Co-op Outlet, with pad site potential and additional land available.
