I've noticed that already.  I've grown to dread doing the dishes sometimes
as a result.  (And I just about asked Dan to get me a "hip-hugger" laundry
basket for Christmas, since carrying the big one we have is getting just a
little more awkward every week.)

So far, I haven't fallen totally over.  But I've been acutely aware of a
general shift that's only going to get a lot more extreme over time, and I
figure I *will* fall over one of these days.  (But I'm also developing
extra padding for that eventuality.)
