Product Overview
In this lovingly hilarious look at her 44-years-and-counting marriage to a man she wouldn't trade for anything in the world -- who would finish her sentences? -- Erma Bombeck offers observations as only she can, on:
- The true test of compatibility: buying a house that needs work
- Surviving parenthood, and the nest that won't stay empty
- How times of struggle are a piece of cake compared to handling success
- Elevating guilt to a sacrament
- What to do with a man who saves instruction manuals; thinks a fishing license makes a great anniversary gift; and, thanks to the remote control, has never seen a television commercial
- Frazzled mothers wondering who they have to sleep with to get fired from the job
- Facing maternity, mortality, and metamorphosis together
This entertaining portrait of an American marriage is Erma Bombeck at her most intimate, and her funniest.
