Well, my walker arrived today.  Actually it is a "rollator;" a hip, rolly
thing with big wheels and a seat and a basket under the seat.   You can take
a gander at it here:

This is not the rollator that I thought I was going to get.  A brand-new
line of rollators came out, and so the man went ahead and ordered me the
best one!

The reason I am using a walker is because I lose my balance sometimes, but
mainly because I am prone to "collapsing" if I try to stay on my feet for
more than about 20 minutes!  So now I not only have something to grab onto,
I have a little seat to use if I need to sit!

As some of you know, Pigmet was rather upset that he could not choose the
color of my walker.  He wanted red, and I wanted a darker color.  Well.  The
new walker that came is a groovy violet color, sort of like an eggplant. I
think it will ever remind us of the "Eggplant Incident" (a story Mair wrote
about Pigmet and the Ratatouille)  When he looked it over in the sunlight,
Met got excited and said "look at this! It has red sparkles in it!"  and
indeed it did.  So the Universe provides for us all.

I will write another post about my rollator when I have figured out how to
use it!

Everyone stay cool and healthy!
