Sorry...I haven't laughed this hard in a while.<br /><br />Sorry we won't be in real life friends soon, as i am only 5' tall, and everyone is taller than me, except children. They like me, i am the first grown up they pass in height!<br /><br />Married a tall guy so my kids wouldn't be so short, and i would have someone else to reach the high shelves. So far, it is working.<br /><br />Oh, and i seem to remember an episode of "The Golden Girls" when one of the ladies pointed out to Blanche the very thing you are talking about, convincing her that staying on the bottom was like an instant face lift.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.com
