Daily Life #10 – Failure #2 and forgiveness

I was such a failure today. Oh, not at the homesteading lifestyle. No, I actually worked on the candle wicks some more today. And I worked on tweaking some things on this blog. Ran a couple errands. And did the usual taking care and feeding the family.

No, it was much more of a personal failure.

I blew up.

Doors were slammed. Voices were raised. Tears were shed.

It wasn’t pretty. And I’m ashamed to admit it.

Apologies have been made and forgiveness given, but I find that I just don’t have the energy to do much else today.

And that’s life. No one is perfect. I am definitely far from it.

I am a work in progress and I am thankful not only for my family’s but also God’s forgiveness. It’s been many months since I’ve felt this low, so I guess I am doing better.

But for tonight, I’m going to bed. Tomorrow will be a better day. I just know it.

About Maridy

Hi, I'm Maridy. I have many interests in life. Right now, my husband and I and our two girls (ages 14 and 7), along with a couple of dogs currently live in a 33ft trailer while we build our house on our homestead property in Northern Nevada (Castle Rock Homestead). Follow us on that journey to building our high desert homestead from the ground up! I also have a passion for hiking and have a blog for that, too. (Journey in the Wilderness) Join me there as I explore the beautiful outdoor landscapes of Northwestern Nevada and Eastern California. And finally, I love historical costuming. Though I haven't been able to do much of that in recent years, I'm hoping that "once the house is built" I'll be able to get back into it more. See what all we've done with that on my Yesteryear Productions blog.
