The author relates a wide variety of personal experiences and problems from a funny point-of-view. From snakes on the porch to roaches in the lavatory, from wayward kids to young adults who need to live a little more dangerously, from a diabetic pooch to a mother ever-ready with a tongue lashing, from a mail-order husband to a fear of merging on the freeway, ex-newspaper columnist Karen Money Williams has seen it all and laughed at most of it.
