Rent a mule

I was thinking about how many people aren't supposed to carry anything heavy for weeks after a surgery but just day to day life can require heavy lifting. For instance Cullen's backpack for college is quite heavy, what with his science textbooks and his laptop and all.

So he should get a nice little miniature donkey to help him out until he's clear to lug heavy stuff around.

New mothers, especially if they've had a c section would also benefit from this program. Just think how much gear the average baby requires these days. And if Mom has a full sized mule she can ride when she gets tired.

It's a win-win situation.
