“— avaoiding stoop labor— Thats something that is getting more scare every day around here.”

I opened the “Gardman Foldaway Garden Kneeler Seat $28.53” I ordered from Walmart and it is perfect for the house and outside. It's easy to hold on to the two sides and lower your knees to the pad. It's nothing to hold onto the two sides and raise yourself to standing. If you turn it over, it's an instant seat. It's not a huge thing so it fits in a small space. It's folded when it comes and you just pull it open. I'm leaving it open for convenience since it takes up so little space.

The company that made this deserves a medal. People with bad knees like I have will appreciate being able to get down to floor or garden dirt level and easily get up.

Glad you got your “stoop preventer” and am happy with it.

My wife has a little garden seat with a rounded base that allows her to rock around a bit as she reaches over for something. It still is no help in getting up though.

You are a lot like me, when you have a problem, you get online and find the solution.

I use Youtube a lot for learning new stuff and improving skills, like woodworking, welding, also for cooking.

My wife goes to the Ortho Dr at 3pm to get the results of her MRI on her knee. I suspect a slightly torn meniscus since she is walking better every day. I’ve had that before and mine healed w/o surgery.

I think I mentioned this before, but I've noticed when I'm signed in to my WM acc't, and look at gardening stuff (or other stuff), when I don't purchase it, I will get emails from them about the item I didn't purchase.

I received them for several weeks about a growhouse I didn't purchase, and the price was lower each time they emailed me. Also, I received one saying, "we see you didn't order xxx. Our website was experiencing problems. Here is a coupon for a $5.00 e-gift card."

I don't mind Walmart "tracking" what I look for when they keep trying to lure me to purchase with a lower price, or five buck gift cards.

Perhaps, I should've looked and not bought with that growlight like yours, but since it was already 48% off, I'm glad I got it, and I love it. *Marcella Recommended works for me. You should do reviews on your purchases at their site.

Lord, I sound like an advertisement for WM.

I’ve seen those seats advertised. I have thought about ordering one to carry with me when I go out for a walk, or for when I get in line at Walmart on Government Check Issuance weekend.

Standing for longer than 20 or 30 minutes pinches a nerve and causes pain which gets worse the longer I stand.
