When Life Gives You Lemons... At Least You Won't Get Scurvy!: Making the best of the crap life gives you - Tapa blanda

A collection of stories and essays that give food for thought and make you laugh. (and sometimes contains naughty words) Madge jokingly yet triumphantly deals with common adult life struggles that fall just short of FEMA intervention but are bigger than a duct tape and coat hanger fix. This stuff wasn’t supposed to happen to Madge, she’s college educated and comes from a good white collar Irish Catholic family. Hilarity ensues as she made it through an abusive marriage, co-parenting with an alcoholic who later vanished, joblessness, homelessness, food stamps, dating, and raising three kids single handedly. Somehow she maintained her dignity and fabulousness and produced three very smart, well adjusted, successful children. These are life lesson stories filled with humor, common sense and snark. Funny and poignant. “This book is very nice dear but I still think you should become a dental hygienist. They make good money you know. People always need their teeth cleaned.” – Madelyn Madigan, Madge’s Mother “Funny and cleavage, a winning combination!” – A creepy guy that reads my blog

Madge Madigan is a fabulous and somewhat irritable single mother of three teenage children. She writes funny and enlightening stuff. When not busy cultivating a master race of well-adjusted successful children, she is host of the "Remain Calm and Stay Fabulous" podcast and freelance writer.
