Publisher's Synopsis
An amusing and friendly help to Christian women suffering from stress at home, Linamen writes about the daily difficulties of family life, housework, and friendships. Using examples from her own life, Karen Linamen, relates the ups and downs of a woman's everyday life at home. She describes the stresses in dealing with household chores, the lack of privacy and personal space, and the demands of children. The chaos of mouldy food in the fridge; house-plants that insist on dying; holidays that go wrong - Linamen tells her stories with generous helpings of humour, but also with intelligence and insight. As someone who has suffered with stress and depression, Linamen is able to provide suggestions and advice for her readers. Her advice is practical and down-to-earth, and as a Christian, includes the elements of spirituality and prayer. This is a friendly woman-to-woman book which identifies difficulties and moves on to positive solutions.
