Chaos: A Memoir: Faking a Normal Life (The Powerless Series)

By Lela Fox

I tried to keep up appearances. I tried to be a good mom. I fought to succeed in my career. All I wanted was to be normal and have normal people like me. When I didn't get that, all hell broke loose. Chaos is one helluva story about the rise and fall of my career and being torn between two part-time roles: "Team Mom" and "Party Girl." Sharing custody with Bo's dad opened a lot of possibilities for a drunk like me. It also brought the nauseous guilt of knowing that I could no longer make responsible choices. I took another stab at the white-picket-fence solution with Miller, the "family guy." He'd save me, I thought. But was the family guy was more interested in other things? What about ME?! I countered his absence with wild-world adventures with my BFF Jilly, another alcoholic in denial. We roamed the coasts of Central America looking for trouble - and we found it at every turn. I'd been kicked out of many bars, but never a whole town! With the chaotic end of marriage #2, my bad decisions became even worse. Maybe even worse than worse. The Powerless series is a memoir told as a story; a story so twisted that it took seven books to reveal it all. Welcome to the third stop on my wild ride through a fucked-up life of five decades. Buckle in and take a tour through this zany story about getting drunk, getting sober, and the quest for grace.
