Summary
This memoir begins when the author loses her husband of 40 years to cancer and 2 weeks later finds herself skipping down the street--much to her alarm. With humor and wit, she explains how she stopped worrying about why she… was smiling and went on worrying, instead, and as she always has, about the possibility that the world around her was headed off a cliff. But hers is not a message of gloom. Rather it is an affirmation of a life's work--and work in general. Author of "This Organic Life" and "The Feeding Web."
