“If you’ve ever heard yourself say, ‘No officer, that is not my son,’ or had to explain to your kids that Led Zeppelin is not a mineral, Fisher is your kind of gal. Even if you’ve never said either of those things, Fisher is still your gal. This book has laughs on every page, and as a parent of teenagers, I desperately needed every one. I loved it!”

Never mind the Real Housewives of Orange County―Marla Jo Fisher is the woman everyone can relate to, complete with bad parenting, rotten dogs, ill health, and fashion faux pas. For nearly two decades, in the Orange County Register and many syndicated papers, readers have delighted in Marla Jo’s subversive humor, cranky intellect, and huge heart on her journey through broke, single, after-40 motherhood, when she adopted Cheetah Boy and Curly Girl, to her oddball adventures around the globe, to the sublime ridiculousness of life next door. Even while facing a devastating diagnosis, Fisher teaches us that humor is the balm that eases and the very thing that binds us together.
