Back in 2000, Jane Xmas was, like an incredible number of others, an fatigued single working mom with a punishing agenda of work, local, and parenting tasks. Weekdays were an metropolitan triathlon, weekends evaporated into mile-long to-do lists. Jane found herself drained, living beyond her means emotionally, physically, and financially. She dreamed of a simpler life, but, like everybody else, worried about the results of disconnecting from the frenetic working world. A highway accident changed everything that. After walking from a crash that should have killed her, she does the unthinkable and booked a three-month leave of absence from her job, put her home up for sale, and shifted with her 10-year-old girl to Pelee Island, a remote community of 180 in the middle of Lake Erie. Will the lack of a pedal-to-the-metal program freak her out, or does it convert her from den mom to Zen mom? Jane published a 15-part series about her sabbatical in the Country wide Post, and her excursion caused an instantaneous and huge hype. Viewers were captivated by someone who possessed the nerve to place the brakes on life. The Pelee Job is Jane's full memoir of her hilarious faux pas, anecdotes, and epiphanies on the island, all told in that refreshingly honest speech that captivated so many to her columns. The Pelee Job can be an inspiring tale of personal change and self-discovery.
