Product Description
Aged between 40 and 55?
Worried that life hasn't panned out quite the way you imagined it?
A lot happier after a couple of glasses of wine? Okay, half a bottle.
`Growing out' of all your clothes?
Tired, just really tired?
If you've answered `yes' to more than half of these questions, then congratulations, you are officially experiencing `midlife'. Middle age. The beginning of the end.
But are you surviving it? Getting the meagre most out of it? Probably not.
Covering all the key issues, from blogging and Boden to wine and worry lines, Rye bread, infidelity and Ikea, The Midlife Manual is your very own guide to getting through the middle years more gracefully. The aim of The Midlife Manual is to make you feel less alone during this testing time. It will make you laugh. It may at times even be genuinely helpful.
