Back Pack On Wheels

Last week I mentioned I was looking for a back pack on wheels to help me get around school with my books and laptop ... well my sister O came up with a wonderful solution. She found a Zuca Sport bag and purchased it for me. This is quite a unique bag because not only can you haul stuff around but you can actually sit on it. So for me that is just perfect ... it goes with me everywhere. I can now go shopping without worrying about looking for a chair because when I feel weak in my legs, I just sit down on my Zuca for a few minutes. I have gotten rid of my purse and just pack a wallet in it so I’m literally hands free. It weighs just 9 lbs empty so is quite easy to maneuver if I don’t overfill it.

When I’m out and about with it, I do get a few looks but mostly because it is unique looking and people are interested in it. I showed it to the physiotherapist on Wednesday and she was quite impressed with it.

For more details about the Zuca bags see zuca.com.

I want to thank my sister O for this thoughtful gift. I just think it’s the cat’s meow.

Sisters are such special people! My sister is my biggest supporter of everything I do. I like that you can sit on it also, what a great idea.

I am going to check the link out to see if I can get one in the Uk! I will have to post a picture of my tartan "granny" trolley!!! It is great but yours is better because it has a seat.

What a great gift!! What an even greater sister:) Now if you put a motor on it you could sit and go twice as fast:) Have a blessed weekend.
