"...What I will do is come take over your tub, lol. "Me" time is such a hard thing to get sometimes, and at times it is us who make it difficult. If we drop things and allow downtown we feel as though we are stealing it.

Living a life of your own design when you are tougher on yourself than any external force creates a complex paradigm shift. I'm trying really hard to take it easy and, taking it easy on myself for taking it easy. If that makes any sense. It's going to take a bit more than Calgon, but I'm ready.T.Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07288157852760931385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7368904647802764772.post-62141988910676751442008-11-20T22:36:00.000-05:002008-11-20T22:36:00.000-05:00I do all the foo foo beauty stuff I did before I h...I do all the foo foo beauty stuff I did before I had a baby.

I still haven't quite conquered that one, but working on it everyday. As a business owner as well, I often find myself on that roller coaster of ride, one week having it all under control and the next about to go crazy. Now that I added "mom" to my role, I am interested to see how I find that healthy balance...any tips???
