Description: Here's the dealio on the book: In my seventh week of graduate school (having go...ne back 18 years after I graduated from college) I packed up my minivan with the red flames on it, took my kids and left my not-so-nice-husband. I then spent the next year becoming a single mom, a teacher, a size six and a cougar. Yes, unfortunately, it’s a common story that way too many women have gone through; but here’s the twist: my story is written in Facebook status updates only. One line for each triumph, each failure, each heartbreak and each exhausting, overwhelming, non-sleeping, anxiety crammed, toddler filled, student teaching, boy crazy, wonderful moment of that year. I realize now, that year, was not only my most challenging year but my favorite as well. 

FINDING MY STATUS is a fresh and original look at an all too common predicament. It’s funny, engaging, and topical. My friends and family log in to Facebook each day to check my status. The book is made up primarily from the actual status updates from my Facebook page.
