What’s a sista to do?
Christmas Eve finds "fortyish and frazzled" Dolly
Coleman juggling her toy-crazed ten year old son
and boy-crazy teenaged daughter, a sentimental
ex-husband – and
her feisty female lover . . . even as she
faces a new challenge that threatens
to change each and every one of their
lives forever.

Auld Lang Syne
Some resolutions
are harder to keep than others! The New Year’s Eve

earlier.
