"I really thought I had a handle on life -- then it
broke off." Opinionated, straight-talking, and witty,
Tee is a fly forty-something. Divorced since her daughter,
Amber, was young, Tee has been "handling her business,"
supporting herself after her would-be songwriter husband
took off for L.A., and she's done all right. Organized,
responsible, hardworking, and loyal, Tee went from being the
first employee of a start-up purveyor of organic lotions to
the right hand of the president of what became a major
player in the home and personal fragrance market. But then
everything changes. First, she's outplaced from her longtime
job and doesn't tell anyone. Then she gives her daughter the
wedding of her dreams and, after overindulging in champagne,
Tee wakes up in bed with the younger best man. For the
first time in twenty-five years, Tee doesn't know who she is
or what she's going to do every day. Deep in denial, she
continues to live her life as if nothing has changed. After
a series of financial mistakes, miscalculations, and
missteps compound her already shaky situation, she's soon
teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. That's when Tee decides
that it's time for her to wake up and face reality. Beyond
"making money," Tee never really decided what she wanted to
do with her life. Then she just stopped thinking about it
and invested her hopes in someone else's dream. Now it's her
chance to invest in herself. Can she step out on faith to
follow her own dream?
