The new Jenny Lawson Book

 I’m a HUGE fan of Jenny. Not one who would stalk her or anything but I do lurk over at her blog. I don’t post, I just read.

So back to her new book, when my birthday came around last month the DH bought it for me! He also got me a new pair of the cutest Silver Forest ladybug earring, too. He knows what I like, well at least after I talked about both for 2 months. I’m just glad he took the hint since he hates to shop.


Isn’t the cover great? That’s the kind of monster I’d have, too, one that keeps killing all my plants and flowers. I am a member of the brown-green thumb club. Give me a plant and in 6 months to a year I’ll either kill it or that monster will.

Inside the book you’ll find 36 (yes, 36!!) chapters. Some are so funny you’ll spit whatever you’re drinking. The book should come with a notice stating it’s dangerous to drink or eat while reading this book. Other chapters will make you so sad you’ll want to head over to Jenny’s blog to let her know you care. Go ahead, she needs to know how much we appreciate her sharing her life with us.

She often writes about her doctors and all the meds she takes. It makes me stressed for her just reading about how hard everything is for her. I avoid doctors and it drives the DH crazy. He goes on and on about it but my reasoning is if I go he’ll find something wrong that will require tests or worse a hospital stay and that’s just not something my anxiety riddled brain (who hates the rest of me) will let me do.

It’s all worth reading even if you don’t have any mental illnesses which I don’t think after the year of covid many can say they don’t have some problem. Remember FOGO (fear of going out)? How many of you will be experiencing agoraphobia having to go back to work?

If You Love Jenny ...



Ok, this is a really quick post. Yeah I know that seems wrong when it comes to me and my writing. I'm listening to a pod cast of Jenny Lawson on The League of Awkward Unicorns! It's really good so click on this link and listen while you're playing games online. Come on, admit it, I know you do it 'cause that's what I do, too.

Here's the link:

She's got a new book out, too. This one is for all of you who love to color. It's a great way to deal with anxiety. If you aren't a crafter try coloring to trick your mind into calming down ( if you have any mental problems you know it's always trying to trick you so get even with it). I'm not putting a link since I don't know if you shop at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or local but go to her blog and find out more about it!

Just in case you didn't know I'm a big fan of hers and own her other books and will get this one too even though I don't color.



I'll get back to Alice quotes next post. I just had to share this :)
