September 06, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
Papillion, NE – When it seems like your body parts have retired and moved south to Florida but the rest of your body is still in the Midwest, you know you’re experiencing middle age. Midlife feels like a ride on a roller coaster for women who are often experiencing hot flashes intense enough that they could fry their family’s breakfast on their chests! In HUSBANDS, HOT FLASHES, AND ALL THAT HULLABALOO! award-winning humor writer and author Vicky DeCoster will have you laughing out loud at the realities of life as a middle-aged woman as she takes you on a hilarious hormonal journey that makes fun of matrimony malfunctions, female fervor, corporate craziness, parenting pandemonium, and aging anatomies. As baby boomer women begin to experience menopause, they suddenly find themselves flooded with complicated medical information and decisions. Studies have proven that humor can help alleviate high blood pressure, reduce stress, stimulate both sides of your brain, and elevate your mood. DeCoster adds, “When we laugh, we truly live in the moment, creating a healthy and happy environment for every woman no matter what her age.”

Harlequin romance author Pam Crooks says, “Any woman who has experienced hormones, children, or a man in her life will LOVE this book. Vicky DeCoster’s gift for laugh-out-loud storytelling is sensational, timeless, and right on.”
Under a front cover illustrated by Jim Horan, a former cartoonist for the Omaha World-Herald, HUSBANDS, HOT FLASHES, AND ALLTHAT HULLABALOO! is packed with refreshing and amusing stories that will leave baby boomer women with the comforting thought that life is too funny to take seriously!
