last wedding of the season done

The last wedding was over the weekend, and now the whole month just feels done with all at once.

Funny thing is I kind of miss the chaos a little. For weeks it was invitations and gift decisions and driving to the fitting and all that, and now there’s nothing left on the calendar and the house feels too quiet.

Sat in the car in the driveway for a while after work today before going inside. Not sad exactly, just didn’t want to go in yet. The drive home is long enough that my brain gets going and then I get home and the thoughts don’t stop just because I parked.

Kept thinking about the bride at the last one, how calm she looked getting ready while everyone around her was a mess. Wish I had some of that calm on hand for regular Tuesdays, not just big days.

My hands started itching again on the drive, out of nowhere, no idea why since they’d been fine through the whole wedding season. Maybe it’s just the quiet catching up with me now that there’s nothing left to distract from it.

Anyway. Didn’t really have anywhere else to put this one tonight.
