    Default OPRAH-Mom who shopped her family broke update!

    Tomorrow 1/18 Oprah is following up with the woman that was on there a while back. You remember her....the Starbucks, buying expensive kids clothes then reselling them right away in yard sales, the expensive kid birthday parties, etc.

    Well tomorrow's show is going to update on her and SUZE ORMAN will be on there for other money interventions, too.

    I'll check it out also. I don't always agree with
    Suze Orman but she does suggest some things
    that make sense.

    I want to see the show with the woman who had
    all that clutter in her house. I missed the first part.
    That was amazing!

    I didn't see the first half(it was two African-American women, and they appeared to be talking about clutter???), but I did see the lady you're talking about. She seems to have finally gotten her act together....her appearance was soooo different! Shorter hair, minimal makeup, simpler clothing(she looked much prettier), and her hubby was there with her holding her hand. They've consolidated debt, she's applied for jobs(hoping for Starbucks job...LOL), they have life and health insurance, etc. Hope you can see it online, to see the physical change in her!

    I saw the show and I was amazed at the difference in her appearance. It was definitely a good change. She seemed so much happier since she gave up trying to impress everyone else. I hope it all works out for this family. It makes you feel good to see a person make such a difference in their life.
