Publisher's summary

With a mischievous twinkle in her eyes, humorist Karen O'Connor invites you to chuckle and even laugh out loud at the mishaps, misunderstandings, and missteps we all make in our journey to maturity, including:

  • trying to remember the thingamajigs bought at whozywhatsit for the whatchamacallits
  • figuring out how to avoid unwanted work which sometimes takes more work
  • mixing up and mishearing words
  • the often hilarious results tackling activities of our youth, forgetting our bodies are a bit different now. You'll enjoy listening to and sharing these short stories that highlight the joy of being alive, the funny situations we get ourselves into, and the faith that makes life worthwhile.

    not the healthiest theology

    had to stop halfway through chapter 2. felt the author was urging me towards sarcasm, self-love and disrespecting others.
