The Wedding

You know, in the end, when your head is spinning and you think you are going to fail in the world, you just have to remember that mantra to live your by, "Shhhh, nobody cares."

That's not to say nobody cares about you. That is to say no one cares if you are fat or thin, no one cares if you are young, or old, no one cares if you are rich, or poor, no one cares if you are plain, or cute, no one cares if you wear green, or blue. They are all too concerned about how they look, present, or hold themselves.

That's, of course, talking about everyone else, the world around us.

But getting back to self, what makes me happier in the end, what I have to remember, and it seems so simple to say it, but I have to do more than think about all the things I have to do, actually doing them, gives me a greater sense of achievement, or to be perfectly honest, less of a feeling of failure.

So…

Maybe it is me who is the drama queen. I don’t know?

Sam thawed out, not immediately that he got up, but soon after. He had to let me know he was still a bit pissed off.

Then we took the dogs for a walk. 

I told Sam that if someone wanted our hotel room, we’d hand it over and drive home after the wedding, it is only an hour and 25 minutes. He thought my brother Will and his wife were sharing with someone, possibly.

Then I looked at the invite. It said your presence was present enough, but if you wanted to contribute to the cost of the honeymoon, that would mean the world. So, I transferred $500 into my niece’s bank account, with the message Happy Honeymoon.

Then we got our outfits together.

And we still had an hour, more or less, before we had to leave.

And everything was sorted.

So, what was wrong with me, yesterday? Nyr! Occasionally, I unravel like everyone else.

It is kind of true that I stress out about stuff now, where I never used to.

Everything turned out.

We got there at 3.20pm. We booked into our hotel room and lay on the bed until the ceremony.

The ceremony started at 4pm. The weather was perfect.

My niece looked gorgeous. Her fiancé looked handsome.

Everyone had a good time.

No stress.
