Topic: I'm shrinking.................................. | |
---|---|
Okay all these years I thought I was 5'2 1/2 now not saying that is very tall but hey it was kewl...
Well lately have had a friend that has been ribbing me with the short jokes and he swears I'm not 5'2 1/2. Of course I stand my ground and tell him I'm so... Well today I decided to see who was right so I get my daughter to get out the measuring tape I take off my shoes and she made sure my hair was not adding any height.... Then the moment comes she says Mom your only 5'1 Shshhshs now that is just not right Hummmm So who has actually taken the time to really measure their height without the shoes and found out your true height? And how tall did you find out you really are? |

Were you cold when you were measured? Sometimes this causes shrinkage........

Okay all these years I thought I was 5'2 1/2 now not saying that is very tall but hey it was kewl... Well lately have had a friend that has been ribbing me with the short jokes and he swears I'm not 5'2 1/2. Of course I stand my ground and tell him I'm so...

And how tall did you find out you really are? 5'2 IS tall compared to me..lol..I'm like 4'6..sooo at 5'2 you were a giant..lol..I can't measure myself like everyone else does so I might not really be even that tall..BUT the upside for me is that I am always sitting so no one can truly tell if I am short or not..lol |

And how tall did you find out you really are? Just a thought: Who's say that you didn't dry up like an old prune, over time...you know "dry out" a little or shrivel up like a fruit? Also who's to say that the measuring device didn't stretch over your head...making your 5'2" to now show as 5'1"! The device could be degrading due to age... |

The older you get the shorter you get due to the spine being compressed.
