Trying to be everything at once.

Well,I never thought I'd ever be the type that would be a blogger but a friend of mine recently started one and I have since become secretly addicted to catching up with her latest goings on via her blog. So,after some weeks,I have been wondering whether if I ever had a blog what on earth would I write about? Would anyone really be interested anyway and would I really want people in my friends and family to actually read it? I have still not worked out the answers to those questions but somehow find myself creating a blog nevertheless!! Maybe by tomorrow I will have deleted this and put it down to a moment of madness! We'll see.

So,to create a blog you have to have a name for it so as you can see mine is 'trying to be everything at once' - I hope I remember this name when I try to sign back in tomorrow! I chose this name after thinking "well, who am I??' So,I thought I am a typical girl.....actually can I as a 31 year old still call myself a 'girl'??.... 'woman' sounds a bit oldish....'lady' is well just too posh....'female' just means I'm not a man...... 'girl' it is! Anyway, as I was saying, I chose the name of this blog after realising that I am a typical girl living in the 21st century trying to be everything that society expects me to be all at once. I feel pressure to be the best mum, the perfect wife, the best example of a Christian, the one who serves without moaning at church, the owner of the cleanest home, the best looking mum in the school yard, the friend that's always there, the employee most deserving of promotion, the cooker of the healthiest meals, the woman that doesn't let her looks go, the wife that always supports her husband by keeping the home and family in order, etc, etc. However the truth is I never feel like I attain any of these!! The typical life of a girl living in the 21st century,eh - TRYING TO BE EVERYTHING AT ONCE. The perfect name for a blog!
