This is a wonderful book by an entertaining writer. Joy Krause takes the reader on a humorous, heartfelt trip of determination, self-discovery, & survival. You'll find yourself reading it more than once. There's so much to relate to in this fabulous book. I've given copies to close friends & relatives & everyone loved it! It's highly recommended & it's not surprising that it was featured on "Oprah". There was also a (rare) follow-up that is worth searching for. It's called "Spring Cleaning 101 (101 Hilarious & Off-the-Wall Cleaning Tips & Household Hints)". Buy these books! You'll love them & won't be able to put them down!
Great, I could hardly put it down.

This is one of the few books I tried to read while driving. Maybe not driving, but at the stop lights. I opened the book at noon and could not stop reading until I finished it. The chapter on turning 45 almost had me hauled off by the men in white coats. I have not laughed that hard in years. It is rare that a book gives a real picture of the foibles, fears and fun that believers experience. I am looking forward to Krause's next book. Joy may be her first name, but it is also what you get when you read this book!
It will make you laugh and cry at the same time

The last thing anyone wants to do is clean. Joy Krause took the pain out of it. She showed the light side of working in the cleaning business. All was not peaches and cream for her and the kids, but through hard work and determination, she was able to see down her yellow brick road. She turned her cleaning business from a dust rag to riches. I couldn't put it down until I finished it.
