To Those of Us Who are Single --

I just got back from two days of being away on a little vacation, and I took this book with me -- "Single" by Judy Ford. When I bought the book I thought I was crazy. I was in the book store, I thumbed thru the book, I bought it on impulse, and I left it next to my bed for a few days before I threw it into my suitcase -- on impulse! Ladies, ya gotta get this book! LOL It is GREAT, just GREAT. The author lost her husband to a heart attack, when she was 24, three years into the marriage (and she adored her husband). She remarried rather quickly, and her second hubby ran off with another woman, the savings and the boat. The 'baby' is now in her late teens (or older). The author, if I read it correctly, has not remarried but has had relationships. Anyway, she KNOWS what it is like to be single, and this is the most realitistic book (about living life as a 'single') that I have ever read. It is nurturing, heartwearming, funny, will make you cry -- and she has wonderful, realistic tips on how to be happy as a single (which, she says, most singles are not). I have even e-mailed the author and thanked her for writing the book. You might take a look at it. Not expensive. (And no, I ain't getting a kickback! LOLOL)
