This is my first blogging experience and my first opportunity to 'publish' anything. We will see how it goes. In 2013 I am traveling cross country, applying for nursing school, hopefully starting nursing school, and moving. My goal is mainly to keep this up.

Day 19 - Ode to the Dishwasher

I'm not really homesick. I don't need to see my family or hug my nieces, although that would be nice. I'm a traveler. I love being away. I'm not lacking for friends or social gatherings during my adventures and I keep it touch. I don't need much from home. I can fall asleep anywhere, and sleep well, so I don't miss my bed. I have almost everything I need or could want. There is one thing, of all the possibilities, all the comforts of home that I long for. If I could teleport anything here this very minute, what would it be? 
Well, you might have guessed it.

I miss my dishwasher!




Yes, my life, it seems at times, revolves around this sink. Two people eating 3 meals a day, with snacks included. Cooking daily and packing lunches. That's a lot of dishes. I can't even imagine adding kids to the mess. I almost don't cook or eat, so there won't be as many dishes. I think to myself, 'Just go to bed hungry, you've already cleaned the kitchen for the night.' Almost.

I leave you, today, with this thought:

"Lather, Rinse, Repe-eat. Lather, Rinse, Repe-eat. Lather, Rinse, Repe-eat, As nee-ded!" 
~Phoebe Buffay

I am singing it for dish washing hands every where.
