It's a perfectly good word with a specific meaning.
Here's how the dictionary defines wending: "Go in a specified direction, typically slowly or by an indirect route."
Meander is a good synonym for wending, but it doesn't have the panache of wending.
We're heading home—meandering all over the place to see whatever strikes our fancy. Thus, I choose to say we're wending our way home.
Takeaway Truth
Adopt the word wending. Use it in a sentence or in your writing.
