space

we’re shrinking
~
I set the table yesterday evening
for just our family;
we’ve had guests for every sit-down meal since ‘the weddin’.
(‘Set the table’
what an odd phrase!)
Anyways
we had way too much empty space!
So much so
that we could actually
take out the leaf
for the first time in years.
I won’t.
Mostly cause I’m lazy that way
but
our in-house family
would fit comfortably
at a measly
5 foot table.
That sorta makes me sad.
*sigh*
