How Do You Expect Me to Be Your Wife When I'm So Busy Being Your Mother

This story is about a 38 year old wife and mother who is frustrated and "burnt out" from raising her three children and her husband. She says in the first chapter "...when Steve and I got married and the minister asked me to say the words "I do", I didn't realize I'd be the only one doing." She ends up going to a party for women, which she felt guilty about attending while leaving her family at home, and that is where all the stories come out within the book.

It contains a humorous story line of fiction contrived and based from true stories told to Lindner by women interviewed across the country from all walks of life, ages 21 to 84, enhanced with cartoons.

Lindner has expertly accomplished the telling of a tale with the everyday trials and tribulations that a wife and mother faces, willingly or not, in an easy reading format that captures the attention of the reader immediately. Every woman in America owes it to herself to read this book and revel in the genuine message if offers, enabling them to think for themselves in a non-threatening way, to help themselves.

Unlike any other book out there, this is not a "How To" book, rather, this is a "That's Me" self-help saga. Through the main character's recognition and understanding of her circumstances, she analyzes here situation and walks herself through the healing and recovery process, which serves as a model for women everywhere to "take care" of themselves while still finding fulfillment as a wife and/or mother.
