Funeral

I went to a funeral yesterday and when I introduced myelf to one of the sons.

He asked, "Are you the one who wrote the book?'

I said, "I sure am."

He said, "Your book was on my moms bed."

So sweet!

Judging A Book by Its Cover.

I read a blog the other day where a woman was railing against the books, 'I Almost Divorced my Husband but I Went on Strike Instead' and another book 'Strangling your husband is not an option'.

She said they were anti man books.

Obviously she hasn't read either one. I read one and I wrote the other and both of the books are about how to stop blaming our men for everything that happens in our lives.

Funny Huh?

Fun Presentation

The presentation went very well. I had everybody laughing.Two people that I went to High School with were in the crowd. They came all the way from Castle Dale and it made my day.

After I got finished I had a young girl come up to me obviously in marital burn out. I tried to talk her into going to counseling. She said they had no money.

I took one of my books out signed it to her and her husband and gave it to her. I hope it helps.

Call From London

I got an email from London yesterday asking if I would do an interview for their magazine.
Of course I said, "Yes."
They asked for pictures of my family. I gave all the family pictures to my kids so I was scrambling all day to find something.
It seems the only pictures you can use for a magazine are digital pictures that can be sent by email and still be in good enough shape to put on the shining pages of a magazine.
Who knew?

So excited about this!

Give up Control

A lady came in to the Salon today and said that her husband has been so much better since they read my book.

But she said, "I still have so much resentment for him because he doesn't do it like I would like it done."

I said, "I know you and you are a perfectionist. You are going to have to give up control and let him do things that you won't critique."

She realized that if she still wanted him to be a partner on the domestic front she had to accept him as he was.
