As the creator of the comic strip "Cathy," Cathy Guisewite returns with her signature wit and warmth in this debut essay collection about another time of big transition, when everything starts changing and disappearing without permission: aging parents, aging children, aging self stuck in the middle. Guisewite unearths the humor and horror of everything from the mundane (trying to introduce her parents to TiVo and facing four decades\' worth of unorganized photos) to the profound (finding a purpose post-retirement and declaring freedom from all those things that hold us back).
