Just leave it alone.” So now she uses the phrase, “Don’t wake up the sleeping dogs.”.
So I told her, “Well., if a situation is doing just fine as it is but could create problems by messing with it. So when I used the phrase, “Better to let sleeping dogs lie.”, she looked at me strangely and asked what I meant by that.
