Dogs, Blogs and Hobbits: Writings from a Widow's Perspective Valerie J. Steimle

Becoming a widow at the early age of 46 was not what Valerie J. Steimle expected. She still had five of her nine children at home in her care with aspirations of a fullfilling life with her husband. After burying her husband she went to work and wrote every day for three years. This collection of 60 articles is part of that work. Ms. Steimle writes about everything from dating jerks to the power of positive thinking. Her outlook on life is inspiring and she writes about what is really important in life.
