Tricki Woo loves hard-boiled eggs, kisses, and sweet potatoes. She also loves preparing for the future by burying treasures and befriending small children. She will bark at anything she finds unacceptable, which can be taxing, but her human has not been murdered once (NOT EVEN ONCE!) since Tricki Woo took on the role of Household Security. Her arch enemy is the squirrel - a rivalry that goes back generations and will end in a reckoning of blood and tears. Tricki Woo will turn two on December 2nd!

I am an OSU grad with a B.A. in English and am returning to OSU this fall to pursue my MFA (Master of Fine Arts) in poetry. Besides being a student and a poet, I work for Dr. Belinda Bruner as her editor for her novel as well as work a couple of online tutoring jobs. I have at least three notebooks and journals open on my desk at any given time; I enjoy doing a couple of different types of journaling as well as like to make detailed lesson plans for the students I tutor. Beyond my creative work, I love to run, eat, spend time with friends, and share cat memes on Facebook.

Cody was brought to us by our Catahoula Snoop. Before there were other houses on our street, Snoop had the run of the land when went outside. One day when we called him home, he brought a friend.

She stayed at the edge of the tall grass the first day we saw her but was brave enough on day 2.  As soon as my daughter saw her, she was determined we would take care of her. Even refused to come in for dinner until we gave Cody a bath and a roof.

Cody loves barking and chasing loud trucks from one end of the yard to the other, in addition to playing keep-a-way with her four-legged sister. She also tends to greet my MIL at the door with the cutest overbite grin. She is such a treasured part of our family!

Pennie Works Studio is the enterprise of Mark Pennie, former assistant director of Oklahoma State University’s marketing office. Pennie has been in business for 21 years. Growing Stillwater's economic base inspires him to work with this company. His biggest success is gaining repeat clients like Langston University and Stillwater Chamber of Commerce. Pennie's biggest challenge is keeping Pennie Works Studio in the business atmosphere of Stillwater and overcoming his introverted instinct. An interesting fact about Pennie Works Studio that most people don't know is that a business or personal reputation-or brand-cannot be avoided. It can only be managed. And graphic identities say a lot.

With the pandemic and record-breaking winter storms continuing to keep us from our normal work schedule, how are we coping and continuing to keep a good attitude when it comes to our work and businesses? There are many things you can do, especially if you belong to a local coworking center. Even if you can't get out to say hi in person, chatting online with the friends and colleagues you've made will brighten your day and help you remember that you are not alone. Another thing you can do is try something new. Whether it is implementing new software or downloading a new app, trying a new tech gadget, or getting a meal delivered from a new restaurant or meal service. Take the time to treat yourself and get yourself and your business on a more successful path. Keeping a positive outlook will help you start off on the right foot when the time comes where you can safely venture out again. Be sure to jump on our WorkIT members-only Facebook group and just say hi or start a new topic of conversation so many can join in. We can't wait to see you online and someday in-person again!
