Short stories about (mostly) married women with normal unenviable pre-feminist lives in Canada, with a few childhood autobiography tales to finish. Interesting things happen in the stories, usually involving an unexpected disruption from apparently nowhere,  which I enjoyed - I struggle with the kind of short story where nothing happens. Don’t be fooled by the title into thinking this is going to be heart warming, no one here is having a good time even when they are having a good time. But the concise, precise writing does bring the characters to life, though they behave in ways I don’t really relate to.
