Shirley You Can Do It Book

Shirley, you can do it! What do you get when you combine a mother, a wife, and a friend, with a helping of humor, a smidgen of self-help, and a dash of dead-on wisdom? You get Shirley, a woman just like you: looking for answers, trying to stretch the 24-hour day a little bit longer, and constantly seeking to better herself, even when her "self" is just fine as it is. Now, in this hilarious, home-hitting new series, you can follow Shirley through the adventure that is daily life-- and you just might learn a few things about yourself along the way... With three kids, a husband, a business, and a never-ending pile of dirty dishes, Shirley rarely if ever feels adequate. That's because on top of everything she does for her family, Shirley is constantly seeking validation: from them, from her mother, her high-school English teacher, her milkman-- anyone and everyone. So it makes perfect sense to dial the number she sees on an infomercial, 1-900-VALDATE. That should do the trick. And to Shirley's surprise, it does. But in some very unexpected ways...

CHECK THE LOST AND FOUND, MY MIND IS MISSING! The holiday season is approaching and, despite the endless airing of It's a Wonderful Life, Shirley's life seems anything but wonderful. As usual, she's spread herself way too thin-between Christmas shopping, her kids' recitals, her husband's office party and her work-and she's feeling thick enough to fill out Santa's suit. But a few angels-including those in her very own family-go a long way to remind Shirley what Christmas is all about...and that the best presents are the ones that can't be wrapped.
