I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 54: Petsitting Fail
Today was the 2nd day of me taking care of two boxers. One is 4 years old (and her name is Gina!), and the other is about 6 months old. The 6 month old is not completely potty trained; therefore, I had to let him out many many times, and even then, he would still sometimes go to the bathroom in the house.
Result: Around 3:30pm, after he had thrown up and peed on the kitchen floor, I knew I just had to get out of their house for a while before I totally lost it. (Plus I was sick and felt like crap, which only made the whole thing worse.) So I put them in their crates for a couple of hours and went home and chilled. After that, I felt much better and was able to spend time with the doggies while being in a much better mood :-)
