The kitchen was definitely designed for someone taller than me, I'm only 5 foot. As to balance, my center of gravity is for too low to let me be able to balance myself. At least I'm close to the ground.Mac n' Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05732924562630675589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-79736560445039100992015-06-12T10:57:37.693-07:002015-06-12T10:57:37.693-07:00Now you have reminded me to check and see if I pos...Now you have reminded me to check and see if I posted my laundry tragedy a few years ago.
