Taking note of the sentiment from one of her retirement cards-Retirement is NOT the end. It’s a NEW BEGINNING-she decides it’s about time she looked for love again, and places a lonely hearts advertisement. Jane embarks on her new life, suffering disappointments and learning hard truths about herself, while never losing her gift for self mockery or her eye for the absurd.
