I encountered two women as I went to enter the coffee shop. They were holding the door for me. That was a surprise; as I’m in my late sixties, I’m ‘young elderly’. I suspect that these two were ‘middle elderly’, between 75 and 84.
One said at my approach, “You go ahead, we’re moving in slow motion today.”
We all laughed. They ended up at the table beside me. As they stood to leave, I called over, “It’s a good thing you got some caffeine in you. You’re moving a lot faster now.”
They laughed. One replied, “You can tell it was needed, huh?”
“I needed it, too, believe me,” I replied.
We all wished each other a good afternoon.
