Today, I'm 4ft9 "tall" and I always have trouble reaching things that are high up. It's my birthday, and I got three footstools as gifts. FML

If it's any consolation I'm 6ft 3 and have to crouch in the shower if I want to wash my hair. Short isn't so bad.

Looks like you got shortchanged

I'm approximately the same height, I feel you. I might have to shop in kids stores for the rest of my life.

You deserved it not because its your fault but because you seriously deserved to get a step stool

LOL. As someone who is in her 20s and only 4'9" as well, this made me laugh a bit. I feel your pain OP. Though I would be happy if someone got me step stools. At least then I could reach stuff!

Happy birthday. Be thankful they weren't those long claw arms...

Seems like a good haul. Now you can leave one in each room so you don't need to be carrying them back and forth. HBD op

Seeing as I'm 4'11 i wish I got step stools for my birthday!!!

Idk. I think that's pretty considerate. Now you don't have to climb onto the counter tops to reach something and risk hurting yourself. And if you're female you'll be able to see into the bathroom mirror more easily to do makeup.

Maybe you could strategically place them Around your house so you'd be able to reach all the things!

I said the same thing!

At least you won't be short on footstools, eh? No? Ok.
