…..to need something like this:
Well, actually, not terribly old. sigh…. Got mine from the UPS guy a few minutes ago. The Mr opened the box, and my first thought…..”Where the heck is my butt suppose to go?” It’s a cane, that doubles as a seat, when the need arises. I guess I could plant just one cheek, and pray I don’t fall over.
Oh, if you are wondering why I have a need for such an item….I have a degenerating spine, and standing for any length of time can get extremely painful. Now, not only will my back hurt, my ass will too. Oh yippee! 
I don’t know about the cane version, but when my grandpa was alive, we bought him one of those fancy stroller/walker’s with the seat on it.
He pissed and moaned about the whole thing from the intro of the idea to the trying out different models, etc. When we got him and the stroller/walker home the first time, he gave it a honest try. The thing was never farther than two feet from him the rest of his life.
Nothing wrong with using a tool for a little help.
Yeah, I know, but….I’m just not really for this. LOL If ya haven’t noticed….I’m a tad hardheaded?
Dear, you might have noticed the same could be said for me. Where do you think I got it from, but that old Italian man.
You??? Hardheaded???? Naw….yer just a lovable lib! Heh!
Heh. And here I thought you were just soft in the head. My bad.
Oh! The mental images!
Here I was imagining you as a svelte, good lookin’ babe of indeterminate age… Why’d ya have ta bust that bubble?
Ha! Fooled ya, didn’t I!
…and here I thought you just LIKED the Maxine cartoons. Does this mean she is modeled after you, after all?
Oh, you betcha! Heh.
