OKLA = Oklahoma

FE = Santa Fe

WHAT IS OKLA-FE?

What happens when a cowgirl from Bartlesville/Tulsa, Oklahoma moves to Santa Fe, NM? Keep reading below and see how one Oklahoma cowgirl created her own unique and often imitated OKLA-FE STYLE.

Howdy All Yaâe(tm)ll

Am I excited? YES!!!! . I have collected anything and everything for years. When I see something I love I think âeoe OH MYâe¦this is the most beautiful and interesting and fun thing I have ever seen in my life..its probably the ONLY one in the world. I HAVE to have it NOW.âe That philosophy has given me a garage, storage unit and a house full of fabulous âeoemust haveâe treasures.

I have traveled alone with total freedom, with fabulous girlfriends, a sister waiting in the car reading a book and a husband 2 aisles behind me ..oops..a WONDERFUL husband 2 aisles behind me.When I return home the car is always busting at the seams. Quoting my husband John. âeHoney, I know when youâe(tm)ve been on a major shopping spree because the car is âe~backed-upâe(tm) to the front doorâe . Another quote from my adoring husband âeoeWhen I come home from work I have to turn the light on because I never know what is stacked in the entrywayâe That is funny but not too funny to himâe¦although he is also a collector and canâe(tm)t say too much.

This week I have had an epiphany. Its called âeoeSELL AND SHAREâe...OKLA-FE STYLE. It is time I let my worldly and small town treasures go. My good friend Rebecca is helping me set up my shop. She is the queen of ebay.and sells on eBay as âeoeBeccaben.âe I have linked her shop to mine so you can see what she has accomplished in her life.. from films in Hollywood to ebay. She has written a book titled just that THE ADVENTURES OF THE MERMAID QUEEN: From Hollywood to eBay. She is one smart cookie. She is always hoppinâe(tm) and a boppinâe(tm)and movinâe(tm) and a shakinâe(tm). It was my lucky day when I met Rebecca.

One more thing I wanted yaâe(tm)ll to know. Another OKLA-FE symptom is how the high altitude changes one's personality. Sometimes I am not me and John is not John. Our alter-ego steps in and tries to be the center of attention and it actually works.. too many times. Six years ago John and I created two very silly characters named Earl and Earlene. They are so ridiculous and embarrass us all the time. But whatâe(tm)s most important they bring a lot of laughs. They OF COURSE want to meet yaâe(tm)llâe¦so be patient with them. They donâe(tm)t have any idea whatâe(tm)s appropriate and whatâe(tm)s not appropriate. They do mean well though and have become quite well known in our charming town of Santa fe, NM. They really arenâe(tm)t as famous as they think but we will let them make believe. They have made greeting cards which are sold in the Santa Fe area and now will be available on my ebay site for the first time. Soâe¦when you see nutty characters throughout my ebay store you will of course know thatâe(tm)s Earl and Earlene. .Just act like you like them and think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread. Earlene is sometimes a sandwich short of a picnic and Earl thinks he is the pillar of the community. They are looking for new friends. Thatâe(tm)s up to you.

I hope you have a great time in my new store. I will have a lot of interesting, fun and âe~over-the topâe(tm) items. Hang in t with me. It will take a little time to get the hang of this. But I am excited and we all know what happens when a woman is excitedâe¦.

.GREAT THINGS HAPPEN!!

YIPEEEEEEEEEEâe¦.. WE GO!! /Hang on to our cowgirl hat and get ready to experience OKLA-FE STYLE!

Thanks to all ya'll
