Balancing Thirties: Cresting the Deployment Hump
http://balancingthirties.blogspot.com/2010/09/cresting-deployment-hump.html
Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Saturday, September 4, 2010. Cresting the Deployment Hump. To many of you, this image means nothing, but to me, this is the image I have been waiting for for the last 106 days. I knew if I could just make it to this day, I would make it through. Today marks the half way point on this deployment journey - today is Hump Day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Live It Coaching, LLC. Promote Your Page Too. Live Fit and Sore.

Balancing Thirties: Forward or Back?
http://balancingthirties.blogspot.com/2010/09/forward-or-back.html
Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Thursday, September 30, 2010. I met with a friend today who is reentering the corporate workforce after our shared layoff in February. Hearing her news made me pause and feel a little envious. I had to ask myself what I envied and it ultimately boiled down to the paycheck. These feelings made me question whether I was doing the right thing pursuing my passions and not a six-digit salary.

Balancing Thirties: Balance
http://balancingthirties.blogspot.com/2010/02/balance.html
Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Thursday, February 4, 2010. What is balance and why am I in pursuit of it? Being a good mother and wanting me time. The desire to stay home and nest and feeling like a contributor to my family's bottom line. Aging gracefully and fighting it every step of the way. Doing what I love and doing what pays the bills. The media's expectations of me and my own expectations. Eating what I love and eating what I should.

Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Sunday, April 18, 2010. Shoulding On Myself at the Playground. Seems like as moms, we are always feeling guilty about something. If we work, we feel like we should. Stay home. If we stay home, we feel like we should. Be entertaining our children and that they should. Be constantly stimulated and educated. L ife coach Margie Warrell. Calls it "shoulding on ourselves" and I am certainly an expert. My. I Ruby will learn fr...

Balancing Thirties: June 2010
http://balancingthirties.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Marks the end of the first half of 2010. Amazingly, the year is already (or only) half over. I have experienced tremendous growth and change in these past six months. I've been laid off and looking for work for way longer than I expected to be. My husband deployed to the Gulf. We've been separated now for 40 days with 172 left to go. I've been working on starting my own business. I'll get my pe...

Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Saturday, February 27, 2010. The Day My World Changed. Seven years ago today, Ruby Rayne Gau was born. My world - the world - changed completely, for the better. My first lesson in vulnerability and parenting. Sometimes we don't know the solution and sometimes we have to reach out for help. But ultimately, we all survive. So now, I pray (and I am not religious) for the angels to watch over her when I can't. I will a...

Trying to stay healthy and sane while navigating motherhood, job loss and remarriage. Monday, July 26, 2010. Acknowledge Me, Please. I've vented about this before in my Facebook status. At AOL, there was this long corridor between buildings. It always amazed me how many times people would pass by like zombies. So often I felt like yelling out "I SEE YOU! Just to see what they would do. Thursday, July 22, 2010. I started this post last night as I watched So You Think You Can Dance. People who love their w...
