I'm all about celebrating my birthday, so I can appreciate the way Oprah parties on her big day. My husband, Jim, always jokes that I don't celebrate my birthDAY, I celebrate my birthWEEK. It's true. I love it. I've never had a 400-pound birthday cake, like Oprah, but I go all out on my own budget.
I'm about to run out the door and will have to watch the rest of the show later, but I want you to know, I did go "Awwwwwww....." when Oprah had her new springer spaniel puppies brought out onstage in a basket and baby buggy. I'm such a sucker for baby animals. Especially pound puppies. But I also rolled my eyes (a little) when Oprah said she was urged by a friend to hire help to take care of the dogs. Oprah's so excited that she can get help with the pups! Then I realized I would like a nanny for my cats. Mainly when it comes to poop-scooping, claw-clipping, and cat hair-removal. Any takers?
Happy birthday, Oprah! Hope it's a great one...and happy birthday to the special folks who share January 29th as their birthday. Admit it, how many of you, when asked what your birthday is, quickly inform anyone who will listen, "It's Oprah's birthday, too!"

We have a tradition in our house as well...it usually starts with the 'happy birthday the day before your birthday' greeting and then moves on from there.
Sometimes I wish I could celebrate Oprah-style, but there ain't NO WAY I am trying on a pair of white 'anythings'!
Happy Birthday, Oprah...Many happy returns of the day!
Watching CNBC in Paris and just discovering your Living Oprah project! Can't wait to read further into the blog! :-)

Does this bus go to the center?
I'll take care of your cats for you...if you pay me more than my current salary, plus pay for my relocation from Iowa, give me a benefit package including stock options, health insurance, etc. No go? Well, I'm allergic to cats anyway.
I don't enjoy scooping my pup's poop or trimming his nails, either, but I guess it's a trade-off for how awesome he is.
Don't cats pretty much take care of themselves? My cat does, all she does is eat & sleep & poop.
Could u follow me?
Great Idea!, saw you on the TV show The Oprah Effect, brilliant on your part, a little expensive too. So, Happy BirthWeek from Celest at FreeBirthdayStuff.com
Enjoy, and make a million bucks from your book. I'll buy one too.
I was supposed to be studying for a test I have early in the morning, but instead I turned on TV to find "The Oprah Effect" was on CNBC and the show won. I am a loyal Oprah viewer, I find her a fascinating woman but I NEVER buy any of the things she says. Every time I watched a show when she was promoting a product, I thought "who buys all this stuff?" and well watching the show tonight, I found one person who did! Interesting things on this blog. You look like a fantastic yoga instructor, maybe you can tell us how you're living your best life according to you since you got really good results in your weight loss. :)
It's amazing to me that you have the time to "live Oprah"! Before you got the book deal were you independently wealthy, or did you have to fit Oprah's reading, shoppig, meditating, etc. into a life filled with a 8-5 job?
I really enjoyed The Oprah Effect and your part in the show. Now what would be really cool is when your book is published, if Oprah decided to have you on her show to hype the book! How funny would that be.
Good luck to you
Strolling the book section of Wal-Mart today, I came across your book. Wow, what a great idea, and a book too! I can't wait to catch up, what I've read so far is awesome.
Happy Birthday! I found out about your project yesterday, and I think it's fantastic. Good luck with the project.
China and Russia put the blame on some screwed up experiments of US for the earthquake that happened in Haiti.
Chinese and Russian Military scientists, these reports say, are concurring with Canadian researcher, and former Asia-Pacific Bureau Chief of Forbes Magazine, Benjamin Fulford, who in a very disturbing video released from his Japanese offices to the American public, details how the United States attacked China by the firing of a 90 Million Volt Shockwave from the Americans High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facilities in Alaska
If we can recollect a previous news when US blamed Russia for the earthquake in Georgio. What do you guys think? Is it really possible to create an earthquake by humans?
I came across this [url=http://universalages.com/hot-news/what-happened-in-haiti-is-it-related-to-haarp/]article about Haiti Earthquake[/url] in some blog it seems very interesting, but conspiracy theories have always been there.
you are a living breading sombey,
get a life of your own and no one should tell you how to live or what to do, get a mind of your
loser!!
Congratulations on your book! I found you through Eileen Williams.
have i been living in a bubble? who knew there were whole blogs about Oprah!
I just saw you on CNBC's the Oprah Effect and had to check out the blog! I agree w/ another commentor that you should discuss more about your healthy lifestyle changes. That's amazing. Also, I LOVED the clothes you modeled on CNBC (10 things every woman must have in her closet). You looked so darling!
I just have been looking at this web-site and find it to be highly handy. I would really treasure all help.
Recently, Louisville has surfaced as a major gathering place for the health care and health-related sciences market sectors. Louisville has been key to progress in heart and hand medical procedures as well as cancer remedy. Several of the earliest manufactured heart transplants were executed in Louisville. Louisville's booming downtown medical research university contains a fresh $88 million rehabilitation heart, and a health and fitness sciences investigation and commercialization park which, in joint venture with the University of Louisville, has lured nearly 80 main experts and investigators. Louisville is usually also house to Humana, 1 of the nation's largest health insurance policies businesses.
Louisville is home to many major businesses and establishments.
Ola, what's up amigos? :)
I will be glad to get any assistance at the start.
Thanks in advance and good luck! :)
I live in Paris too and saw the same show CHICsetera saw... CNBC, Oprah effect. Looking forward to more of your blog!
Say it again, please.

I have finally started reading your book and I love it! Although I started reading this blog part way through your project, I feel as though I know you. I feel like this is a book written by a friend and that I can say, when I see it on the store shelves, "I know her!"
I'm sure there are many who have been following this blog that feel the same way. Thank you, Robyn, for including us and sharing your project! It's a pleasure to come to this blog and read your thoughts, your observations, and your ponderings.
Congratulations and thank you!
Sorry to nag...but there have been so many interesting episodes lately Robyn and we want to hear what you think! Hope you'll have a chance to post soon.
I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found www.livingoprah.com to be extremely interesting. I will be coming back to www.livingoprah.com for more information.
Every time I pick up your book I smile when I see your leopard print flats. I find myself searching for a pair! Not because Oprah told me I needed them, but because I love the idea of you wearing them. I've never seen anyone wearing them in public, so I don't think Oprah's suggestion took off, but your shoes on the cover of the book may jump start a craze!
We miss you Robyn. Please post again and let us know what you're up to.
Hi! I just found your book on the "new books" shelf at the library. Very interesting experiment. Very enjoyable.
