2/16: the benefit of my own efforts

I ended up staying on campus an hour longer than usual today. By the time I arrived home, I was more than a bit frazzled by things. Which made it so wonderful to walk into the house and feel the relief of its tidiness. My domestic chores this weekend definitely paid off! I felt like I was entering a haven, and knowing that I had done my part to create the haven increased my pleasure.

when day meets nite and what has unsettled me all day calms down

I am so grateful for that time of day, and every now and then I take a moment to really feel how the things of the day are calming down and slipping away.
