Default 1997 Cavalier Oil Change Light

I have a 1997 Cav with about 112K miles. I get the oil changed every three months religiously. I notice that the oil change light comes on constantly whenever I am braking or my foot is not on the gas. It is annoying. I do not have a leak and do not need any oil. Is this a nuisance problem? What gives? Thanks for any help.
