Post Wedding Let Down

I knew about post letting let down. Friends had told me about it. I purposely planned a trip right after the wedding to avoid that scenario. But I made a different mistake and it was one that I could not help. Due to July 4 being on a Saturday I did not have any classes the week before or after. Summer is slow teaching time unless I am at the beach and I am running out of people who I have not already taught. This happens after 30,000 students.

Today the post wedding blues hit me. We had spent a year and a half excitingly anticipating the wedding. It was wonderful and perfect. And today I got the feeling that I don’t know what to look forward to now. This feels selfish. I have plenty to look forward to, just not wedding level. And with only one child it was the only wedding we will be giving.

I did fill my week working on a baby quilt for someone who is having a baby in September. I finished the top and stated the quilting, but I am not thrilled with the quilting and may undue what I have done. That is a bummer.

I designed a needlepoint I need to work on. I only did it on paper. It involves a bunch of circles, which are hard to translate so I am rethinking that. I worked on a beaded Christmas ornament, but bored quickly of that.

I need a good series to binge. I need some full classes to teach. I need something to look forward to.
