What I Learned About Life When My Husband Got Fired!

It was an amusing moment – our Consulting Publisher told us it was time to focus on the acknowledgements we wanted to list in the front of our book. We looked at each other and we both knew immediately what the other was thinking. NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS! Itīs not that weīre incredibly conceited and have no one we want to publicly thank. The problem is we have so many people that have supported us over the years, given us invaluable advice, and written words of encouragement that propelled us forward that we couldnīt possibly mention all of them in the book without running the risk of inadvertently forgetting someone. And we (or at least Red) would feel awful.

However, there were three entities that we knew had to be mentioned in the book, and so we decided to include them on the VIBNORS (Very Important, But No One Reads "Stuff") page:

• BRIGHT SKY PRESS as consulting publisher for making this project not only polished, but possible.
   
• MIKE GUILLORY DESIGN AND ILLUSTRATION for giving our trademark a needed nose job and adding a sense of style to all our illustrations.
   
• KLEIS DESIGN for taking pages and pages of words and designing a book that surpassed all our expectations.
