Jo Ettles' life changed the day a psychic said to her, "By the way, tell your husband to clean out his shed, when he does this luck will come back into your lives," and so began a journey in spring cleaning her environment and her life. The Shed: Change Your Life By Cleaning Out Your Shed! is a book about how the chaos in our external environment affects the positive energy flow in all areas of your life. "Your home is your safe haven, your body is what carries you through this life, and your thoughts determine how you feel and respond to the world. Clearing each one of these areas and filling them with love, laughter and beauty will bring your life immense joy. Mess and disorganisation according to feng shui principles is thought to create blockages and stagnant energy, and it also reflects a cluttered mind. Devoting time and energy to organising your surroundings and your life enables greater productivity and the potential for anything." - Jo Ettles. This is a book for everyone who wants to make positive, practical and real changes in their life through an easy ten step clean up program for the body, mind and soul.

This is the story of childhood abuse, looking for love in the wrong places, finding the perfect partner and the journeys both share when they decide they are stronger together.

A few years ago, I went back to my home town to attend my 60-year high school class reunion. The day after the festivities, I took my camera in hand, got in my car, and spent most of the day on a sentimental journey. I drove around the town, remembering what it had been like when I was a boy growing up there many, many years ago. The stories in this book will tell you about the schools and churches I attended, the places where members of my family worked, and places where my friends and I played. You will enjoy the sounds, the smels and the social events of a vibrant community. You will visit the playgrounds and parks and go to picnics and parades. You will go swimming, skating and sliding, and hear about how we kids had fun back then. You will learn about chairs and cheese and other things that were important to the life of our town. My first Sheboygan book was about the people who were an important part of my like when I was a boy; this book is about how those people lived, worked and played. It was a different world back then...one we sometimes wish we could live over again. Welcome back to Sheboygan!

It was years later, and they were still grieving, mourning, crying, and weeping over the loss of their loved ones. The hurt, pain, brokenness, sorrow, heartache, and heartbreak they felt in the beginning never subsided; and it never ended. Unknowingly, they had stepped into the process, but never entered into the journey.
