Fence Post Wisdom: Conquering Life with a Little Southern Wit and Patience - Paperback

by Bridget Faure (Author), Leanne Evans (Author)

Join us for a sit down on the porch swing or pull up a lawn chair & have yourself a tall glass of sweet iced tea. We're gonna talk about regaining our southern patience, reminisce a little over the rather interesting "nothing to do days" of our youth & solve the problems of the world with a little southern wit, some good ole' fashion common sense & a pinch of salt just for the luck of it. Fence Post Wisdom is a simple philosophy whereby at some point in life, we've come to realize that everything we've learned of any real substance has been learned near the old fence post --right in our own back yards. That the old ways are sometimes the best ways and that progress just for the sake of progress isn't always all that great. It's about remembering the way things used to be and how extraordinarily happy we could be when we had nothing at all to do. This book, for the most part, is about taking the time to laugh at everyday things; the things that make our blood boil, the things that make our hearts sing. It's about being a kid and raising them. It's about remembering all the good times and sometimes just letting life happen. A few aggravations openly aired over the rusty old fence-- just between us girls-- as we miss a world where using good common sense seems about as rare as snow chains in New Orleans.
