Happy Mother’s Day to my mom, Carolyn, or as our boys nicknamed her way back when, Voom.
She is doing well and still living by herself in Norman.
She loves her Sooners and doesn’t miss a game on TV or on the radio.

I’ve been itching to get my mitts on the new census figures but the news from City Manager Dale Bunn is we won’t get the numbers until the end of September.
That’s when the Census Bureau will deliver the final redistricting data toolkit to all states and the public, Bunn said.
He said this will include digital tools which provides access to an integrated software browsing tool for official recipients.
It will also provide access to the online Data Explorer tool for both official recipients and the public.
The most up-to-date census data we have has McClain County as the second fastest growing county in Oklahoma behind only Canadian County.
The latest available data has Canadian County growing at a 34.12 percent rate while McClain County is growing at a 19.9 percent clip.
Following McClain County is Logan County at a 17.79 percent rate.
Bryan County is growing by a 16.49 percent rate followed by Cleveland County at a 12.69 percent rate and Oklahoma County at 12.54 percent.
The latest data shows a total of 40 of the 77 counties lost population.
The county with the largest decrease in population is Cimarron at a negative 15.78 percent clip.
Information I have come across shows the median age in Oklahoma is 36.3 and that almost 1/4 of all Oklahomans are under the age of 18.
Interesting.
