Sometimes I Wake Up Grumpy and Sometimes I Let Him Sleep

Sometimes I Wake Up Grumpy and Sometimes I Let Him Sleep by Karen Scalf Linamen

Is life making you grumpy? Have you ever suspected that your bed is the only one in town with two wrong sides? It would be nice if we were always gracious and at our best, if PMS didn't secretly stand for "psychotic mood swings," if "happily ever after" were an unwritten guarantee. We all want fairy tale lives. But the truth is, even Snow White came from a dysfunctional family and lived with a man named Grumpy.

So come on in and pull up a chair, because we're all in this together. In her most candid book ever, Karen Linamen shares stories and insights—from her experiences and those of thousands of others—on what helps when life hurts.

If you feel stressed, disillusioned, or simply worn-out by life, take heart. In the tradition of Just Hand Over the Chocolate and No One Will Get Hurt, Karen delivers humor that will lift your spirits and insights that will help you experience true healing, entertain new hope, encounter fresh passion, and embrace vibrant joy. It's a tall order, but when life has made you grumpy, nothing less will do.
