And God created Man in His Own Image...Today's Laugh

Hmmm, that was a scary verse to me. God created man in His Own image. So let me get this straight:

1) God has to be told a zillion times over what to do
2) God can be ridiculously selfish with His time
3) God still wants you to desire Him even when He doesn't even meet your needs
4) God doesn't recognize your needs as woman
5) God won't go to church with you
6) God doesn't anticipate what needs to be done around the house before you do (example: God leaves an overflowing trash can alone until after work)
7) God would rather play basketball or Madden 2010 than spend time in your presence
8) God stays at work without calling and checking in
9) God doesn't keep his Word
10) God would put work before his children

Okay, so since we know GOD isn't ANY of those things above. Then whose image was man really created in? Hmm...

Who Am I?

I decided today that I would create this blog. I had some trouble coming up with a title, but I thought WHO AM I? sums it all up. Since the birth of my first daughter 5 years ago, I have felt as though I lost a part of myself. My 2nd daughter was born on 4/8/10, and I now feel as though I am lost and may NEVER find my way back. I'm a mother, wife, friend, sister, daughter, cousin, daughter-in-law, co-worker, etc...however, for some reason none of these titles feel quite as good as my titles of old -- "flygirl, fashionista, workaholic, fiance/girlfriend, world traveler". Don't get me wrong-I love being a mom. But I see so many non-celebrity mothers who seem to do this effortlessly, and wonder "what's wrong with me?". Women who are beautiful (inside and out), phenomenal post baby physique, chic, working moms. Working mamas who have it "goin' on". So my journey starts today. By the end of this, the question WHO AM I? will be answered. I know this woman exists -- she may be buried in my pinkie toe, but she's still there somewhere. Join me on my journey, as I search, rant, complain, try new things, get rid of old things--all en-route to finding the NEW ME...
