Friday Fails

Welcome to Friday Fails! This blog meme/carnival encourages giving up pretense and keeping it real.  It is a good reminder that we don’t have it all together, and sharing our failures with each other produces greater mutual respect and credibility. Of course, we all love to get a *really* good laugh (at ourselves and each other) too! Be sure to check out previous Friday Fails posts!

Have you ever forgotten to change your home’s air filter for a year, or have you made a mess with your bread machine?  Maybe, you left a child at church and didn’t realize until you arrived home?  Have you ever walked out of the house with different colored shoes on?  Do you have a food fail or a homemaking fail? If you replied yes to any of the above questions, then this is the meme for you!

Friday Fails Guidelines:

1. Link up your permalink – not just your blog address.

2. Please mention Friday Fails in your post and leave a link back here to My Blessed Life.

3. You are more than welcome to use the Friday Fails button, but you aren’t required to.

4.  Try to visit the other Friday Fails participants!  Spread the love!!

5.  I plan to have my Friday Fails post and linky up by 11:00 PM CST on Thursday nights.

Thanks for playing along and keeping it real!

Found you through MSM. How fun! Just about everything on my blog falls into the “Friday Fails” category :) That’s why it’s “Moms In Need of Mercy.” I will start linking up! Blessings, Cheryl

Awesome idea! It’s nice to know that none of us are perfect and none of us are alone in our imperfections.

Oh, Myra, tsk, tsk, no such thing as failed Fridays. When you get my age and you can still put one foot in front of the other, you have NOT failed!! I keep a notebook on my counter and sometimes my bedside to right down ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that comes to my mind that I might need to do in the next week. Guess what? It never fails I WILL forget something!!! SO? When you put it in the grand scheme of things, it DOESN’T MATTER!!! You’ll get it next time. As far as your uninsured house lol, guess what you’ll NEVER let that happen again, I promise! So, you learned something and you will be more aware next time! DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF. God knows when a sparrow falls and He knows the amount of hairs I have on my head which at my age is about 18!!! So, be a little easier on yourself, You’re doing a great job. Have a blessed day.

My daughter gave me a phone number for something important on a scrap of paper as she said to me “dont lose it MOM”
*Epic Fail.* I can’t find it anywhere.

Ooops. Failed again. I’d like to leave my blog rather than my fabric website. The blog is more fun.
