I was babysitting today, and as I was trying to prepare lunch for the kids, I realized that I am really short. I mean, I knew that before, but when you're really having to look around for a chair/ladder to stand on to cook over the stove, it just begins to get ridiculous. So I have decided, that my house will be built entirely to scale around my height.
Seems selfish, but then again, constructing clothes that only fit models that are 5'10" and weigh 100 pounds and buildings that are all built around the average height person is a bit selfish too. So my husband will have to deal with a house built for Lilliputians. And it's not like I'm going to marry Gulliver anyway.

So happy Independence Day everyone. For some reason, this year, calling it Independence Day rather than the Fourth of July just seems all too fitting.
Just everything that has been going on, it seems as if it's all moving away from everything I once knew. And in a weird way, I really like that. I'm going to uncharted waters and I'm nervous and excited about it all at the same time.
So happy Independence Day to one and all.
