How cool! We love living in Norman! I enjoy the people, the diversity, the fact that everyone feels welcome and fits in, that it crosses all cultural and financial classes and everyone is welcome. I enjoy the arts and crafts opportunities and that *hometown* feel. We've lived here 13 years and it's been our favorite place to live. You can be very rural and still be in the city limits ; ) with police and fire protection and friendly neighbors. The medical care opportunities are excellent, too...great hospital and physicians. Shopping is great and you seldom ever have to travel out of town for anything you might need or want. There are wonderful churches in abundance. The university and technology center are great opportunities for anyone. And, of course, there's football. ; ) 
Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

I found it interesting as Enid was rated one of the best a few years ago. Norman is a nice town..plus you have Jonathan Kayne the designer from Project Runway who has his own store in Norman. We had him design the dress for my daughter's wedding.

WOW! I've never been to his store. I'd love to see pics of your daughter and her  wedding dress. I've really been hooked by Project Runway the past couple of seasons, or so ... I'm trying not to get started watching it this year. It will keep me in front of the TV instead of exercising, I'm afraid. ; )

One of my new weight loss strategies is to choose only a few TV shows to watch regularly ... the rest of the time I need to stay active. However, if I would spring for a new treadmill, I could watch TV while treadmilling ... without having to have the volume at an eardrum busting level! My treadmill is 16 years old ... and it's LOUD. I'm having a hard time parting with it since it still works and has held me up all these years. ; )

Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

I love living in Norman, too !!!  Instead of a treadmill, get a recumbent bike.  They have one at Academy for $130 and it will shake up your routine.  It's not noisy -- just set it in front of the TV and GO !!!!

I'll check that out ... I'm always looking for a reason to go to Academy! I always get inspired to exercise more when I go there. : )

CONGRATULATIONS TO NORMAN! 

That is so cool.  But, I'm not surprised it was named was of the best places to live - look at all the nice folks on this board from Norman and other communities close to it!  Love ya all!

Huggs,

Pam
