Honey, They Shrunk My Hormones: Humor and Insight from the Trenches of Midlife
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Maybe you're one of those women whose mother failed to mention certain anxiety-producing and heat-generating experiences now altering your life - or the life of someone you know. In "Honey, They Shrunk My Hormones" Caron Chandler Loveless uses humor, lots of it, to inspire and encourage women approaching or in the midst of midlife. Loveless, a mother of three sons, writes with compassion about more than estrogen and hot flashes; she confronts self-image questions, the empty-nest syndrome, ailing parents, and the fear of letting go among other topics. Chapter titles include "Pardon Me, But Your Midlife is Showing"; "In Defense of the Chicken-Breasted Mammogram"; "Bumper Snickers"; "A Little Whine is Good for the Heart"; and "I Think I Can Face the Music, If someone Will Dance with Me." As Loveless writes, "None of this means the end of the world. It's just the end of the world as we have known it. And as dreadful as that sounds, there are any number of upsides to one world slowing down and a new one cranking up..." Readers will laugh and cry along the way.
From the Publisher
This book is a joyful, encouraging, humorous look at midlife issues aimed at the woman approaching or in the midst of this often misunderstood and confusing season.
This book's candid essays are funny but not silly, poignant but not sappy, and always insightful, turning to Scripture for a balanced perspective.
Loveless engages the reader with lists like "Blasts from the Past Worth Keeping" and a hilarious midlife-awareness quiz.
