Nevermind, I tinkered with some css, and found a solution that works for me!
!!!Notes:
<$edit-text tiddler="Notepad" placeholder="Type Notes Here." rows="10"
minHeight="10em" class="my-extended-memory-field"/>
<style>
.my-extended-memory-field
{width: 95%;
overflow-y: scroll;
max-height: 200px;
min-height: 250px;
position: static;
top: 100px;
}
</style>
