Life Lessons from the Drag Queen Upstairs Carrie Stollings

It has been said that when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade. But how do you handle a series of losses that leave you broken hearted, financially strapped, and homeless? After a series of losses - the death of her mother, a divorce, a failed business that left her in financial difficulty - the author found herself living in a basement apartment and in a lot of despair. Then she met her unconventional upstairs neighbor - a drag queen - who offered a larger than life attitude, and lots of lessons on how to live a sparkling life. With honesty and humor, "Life Lessons" outlines the authors' discoveries, her fears and her hopes for those facing their own "lemon" moments. If you aren't lucky enough to know a drag queen, this book is a good way to discover how much fun challenging the conventional can be.
