This is to those among us raising their adoptive grandkids and caring, in-house, for an elderly parent. Add a teenager
into the mix and you get the equivalent of hitting the lottery, in reverse.This tale begins on March 9, 2009. In
reality, it begins long before that date. Toss in two grandparents attempting to referee an assortment of generational
gaps. Add four children under the age of 18 and a woman pushing 80, and what do you get? We haven't a clue...
because the jury is still out.

J.I.M. Lord is the father of three and grandfather of three, of which the three grandkids have been adopted by Jim and his wife Emily after the death of their daughter. Jim & family live in Oklahoma and are on a first-name-basis with the ins and outs of food stamps, WIC, government housing, and the struggles to make ends meet by frequenting garage sales and re-selling those "gems" on Ebay...thus the lead character's name in "Finding My Way Back Home:" JOBE! Look for Jim's novels "Grandparents: Purpose" & "Grandparents: It Don't Come Easy" , memoirs of life in the "starting over" lane of parenting grandkids!
