The Full Monty

This Sassy Primer’s The Field Guy-ed and The Roadmap offer almost 30 chapters of womansplaining and complaining on how to manhandle your Aging Human Male’s issues of stubbornness, control, anxiety, and competence, as well as avoiding pitstops and potholes and appreciating the view as you and your Aging Human Partner navigate Route 66+ together.  

This Sassy Primer shares well with friends, in The Dame Digest and The Precious Old Dames’ Party Playbook with almost 25 chapters for Boomer Babes on self-care, self-help, and self-compassion as well as gathering with their PODs (Precious Old Dames) to dish, whine, wine, laugh and cry so hard they use their Poise not to turn their gathering into a Pee Party!

And what gal doesn’t like something a little revealing? This Sassy Primer climaxes (ahem!) with a surprising Epilogue: The Reveal. 

And, for some final chuckles, check out A to Z for the Glossary-eyed, The Women’s Truth Foundation (WTF) collection of new, fun, scandalous aging-relationship words and concepts chock full of all kinds of sexy junk. (e.g., Junk. Noun. What comes in the male.)
