A witty tale of a stay agt home mom on the verge of insanity. She's constantly asked what she does all day. And she's beginning to question it as well.
Then a man in her husband's work force shows her pictures of her husband with (gasp) another woman!
Does being home all the time affect the way she perceives things, by jumping to the wrong conclusion or being short tempered? Or is it because she feels she doesn't get the support she needs at home or anytime to herself?
It's a fun beach read.

This book took me a while to finish (I have been busy packing...but that isn't really why). This just didn't hold my attention. I like a little chick lit here and there but this one was so far fetched and Jennifer the main character was very one dimensional...I didn't have any connection to her at all.
Hopefully my next read is a little better!

This book was a really funny romp through the good, bad and ugly sides of motherhood. Often times I was rolling at how hilarious and right on target the anecdotes about everyday life as a mother. The actual storyline was a little slow and meandering, but I was distracted by that, and therefore didn't mind, because the book was so funny. I really enjoyed this book. 4 stars.
I just couldn't get into it.
A story that will resonate with any woman who traded in a stimulating career and stylish (spit-free) clothes for motherhood. Reviewed more fully here: http://www.electricvenom.com/2005/10/31/what-do-you-read-all-day/
