Doug and I will be heading off to Florida tomorrow.  Emily and I were talking about how people mainly don't seem to enjoy being with their elderly relatives.  Of course, I don't want to think that that's down the pike for us!  But, we're not particularly looking forward to the trip.  I guess a lot of it is about lack of mobility -- that anything you do gets done so slowly with elderly relatives, and that's just going to happen to all of us.  I hope the yoga and exercise make a difference.  It's also about all the "just sitting around" - not something we enjoy.  But I feel bad, because these should be treasured times.  Older relatives won't be around that long, so why don't we really enjoy the time we have?  Sad...
