About this ebook
Have you ever been just casually strolling along in life and then something yanks the world out from under your feet? Well, that is what happened when Vicki Baylis turned fifty. Oh sure, she no longer had children's diapers to change, arguments over getting their homework finished, and impossible schedules to reach. She even successfully survived their teenager years. Life should be all peaches and cream with her empty nest because their rooms are finally cleaned. And it is awesome for a few minutes-the grocery bill is cut in half, the utility bills are manageable, the laundry is under control. She is actually enjoying sitting in the recliner with nothing to do. Then she began to make plans-the fruit trees she always wanted to plant, beautiful flower beds started to pop up in the yard, and she even started remodeling the house. Life is joyful, but then old age set in. Somehow, her body begin a rapid descent into a world of aching joints, hot flashes, and a kitchen full of sticky post-it notes because she can't remember anything important anymore. The flower beds start to get weeds in them because she pulled her back out. The laundry pile has taken over the house again, and according to the post-it notes, she has another doctor's appointment coming up. Pea Patches and Butterbean Fields is a continuing look into the life of an ordinary Southern family who chooses to laugh at the misadventures of their crazy world. Hopefully you will laugh along with them too. In addition to the laughs you will find in this witty memoir you may enjoy her other books Just a Little Southern, Just a Little More Southern, Daddy's Money, and Garden Club Secrets.
