Oh my gosh. Today is not labor day.... It is grandparent day. I went for a 30 mile drive doing errands. High noon, so its in the high 90's and humid. 12pm. What the heck are seniors doing outside at that time of day. They were everywhere. On the freeway, in the grocery store, walking outside... i was on the freeway and one of them did not see me in his blind spot. Another snuck into my blind spot while i was changing lanes. I saw what looked like a retired general in an RV trucking along. In the store i smiled at 4 of them by accident (for some reason i was still in work mode, 10 feet make eye contact, at 5 feets greet them). What ever happened to the good old driving miss Daisy days? Or having their sons or daughters drive them around? just remember to leave the window cracked down a tad when you leave them in the car.
In any case, they need to be inactive when its hot. They do suffer the most during summers. Stay at home grandma/pa.

You are so funny...you "accidently" smiled at old people? :)
Old people need love too! Have you hugged a senior today?
