Things I'm Learning

No matter how tempting it is to leave a pot soaking in the sink at night, there hasn't been one morning that I'm glad I made that decision - not ever. In fact, I get quite irritable when I do! It feels FABULOUS though when I take the time to put in some elbow grease the night before, scrub that stubborn pot, and wake up to a lovely, clean kitchen!

Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest;
Home-keeping hearts are happiest,
For those that wander they know not where
Are full of trouble and full of care;
To stay at home is best.

Weary and homesick and distressed,
They wander east, they wander west,
And are baffled and beaten and blown about
By the winds of the wilderness of doubt;
To stay at home is best.

Then stay at home, my heart, and rest;
The bird is safest in its nest;
O'er all that flutter their wings and fly
A hawk is hovering in the sky;
To stay at home is best.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
