    Depending on what I need and where it is, I could hurt myself or destroy the whole pantry.

    I have no problem climbing up shelving units at the grocery store. It seems like most of the time tall people will see me eye something on the top shelf, see me decide on my climbing route to reach it and pull it down before I get the chance.

    THIS.

    I still climb quite a bit, though.

    I use it to ask cute guys to get things off the top shelf for me when I'm at the store.

    I wear really high heels -- like 4-5" heels with at least a 1" platform -- and I'm almost as tall as my husband when I wear them. It's funny when people see me barefoot because they don't realize how short I am. When ever I take my shoes off and stand next to my husband I'm just up to his chin and he always looks down and goes "Where did you go Jennie?" LOL.

    To be politically correct it is "Vertically Handicapped" or "Vertically Impaired" but never say short. :bigsmile:

    when you reach up and can only touch something with the tip of your finger and no matter how hard you reach it just pushes it further back LOL... I use spoons and tongs to reach things from the top shelves and in the cupboards.

    That's why I married someone over 6 feet tall. :wink:

    Seriously though, my only problem is how much everyone (especially my mother-in-law who's exactly one inch taller) loves to point out how short I am. :grumble:

    I'm not tall by any means....a cm or so from being 6' but, have always had short gf's, and wife. (5'0-5'3) I guess that's my thing with the opposite sex and I've always owned a stepping stool for the kitchen for just that reason. I mean really....if she's gotta make my sammich...I don't want her to get hurt. :laugh:

    and for the record...."the grabber" tool was the worst infomercial investment I've ever purchased. well, except for that one night she had a little too much to drink and thought it would be fun.

    :laugh: Good one!

    I let her pick at me only because she has three boys all either close to or over 6 feet tall and she's only 5ft 3in and I figure, hey, it's about time she get someone in the family that's smaller than her. Now if only I could be as skinny as her... :grumble:

    Don't be skinnier than her, be fitter than her and let her see just how much butt you can kick :)

    I have a hard time getting into some SUV's, and when average or tall people sit in front of me in the movie theater I can't see anything...so then I have to change seats.

    Yet, at 5'3 1/2 I'm the tallest female in my family....so I'm always asked to reach stuff on the high shelves and called Lurch and feel huge in family pics.

    It's all about perspective.

    When short and over 150lbs, it's good to be flexible. That way, I climb things to get what I want. No asking.
