Happy Hump Day!


Well, the clock struck twelve about half an hour ago, so I guess it's past Wednesday, our hump of the week. I sometimes use it as an excuse to give a surprise attack hump on my husband. I miss having Hump Day Happy Hours every Wednesday with my girls in TX.

More recently (since moving to Chicago), I spend my Wednesdays volunteering at the local senior center preparing and serving food for the elderly. One of my favorite volunteers is a senior herself. She's an 82 year old 4'10" feisty 82 lb Asian lady arriving every week in her signature *pink* trucker hat and red "IRON CHEF" apron. Her name is Yo, so when I see her, I'm like, "Yo, what's up?!" She gets real chipper and smiles and always says (with the super Asian accent), "I soooo happy to see you!" She's the Grandma I always wish I had. There's a whole community of sweet and loving grandmas and grandpas out there. I wish that everyone would have patience and love for the elderly - I sure do. :)
