Not looking forward to grocery shopping later. I hate it for many reasons, but the worst is trying to reach things. I’m ALWAYS too short to reach at least one thing I need, and the thing is different each time I go.

There is no other place where I experience these kinds of on such a regular basis.

I wish I was tall enough to reach all the shelves both at work and at home without climbing on step stools, chairs, etc. Most of the time being 4ft 11in doesn't bother me, but sometimes it's a pain..

When I sit in this chair, I always wonder why my feet aren't touching the floor. Then I remember that in my strange world it's actually better for my feet not to be touching the floor so I can reach the keyboard better.

We don't talk nearly enough about the forced short person slouch. I'd LOVE to sit normally in a chair. Unfortunately, chairs are all 5+ inches too long for my tiny legs, so either my legs dangle painfully or I am forced to sit with my butt scooched 5+ inches away from the back of the chair; aka slouching

And if I commit to the dangle, I slowly slip off (thanks, gravity) and need to push myself back up. There's no win!

So many stone stiles are not for shortarses with bad knees like me, makes for very undignified ascents/descents 😅

oh, and I also like that the lower level is low enough that I can play it rather comfortably. Not something I can take for granted.

Stopped at the store after physical therapy, this morning, and was delighted to see that they'd moved my favorite yogurt to a shelf that doesn't require me to find a Tall Person to get it for me! :D

I have zero problems with eating alone in restaurants. I do wish they would stop trying to seat me at the bar though. 1. I don’t want to be that close to anyone and 2. I’m too short for bar stools to be comfortable.

Anyone have on budget-friendly desk chairs for short people? I had to bump my desk height up to 30" and my chair can't adjust high enough :eyeroll:
