Unintended Consequences

So today, I was thinking about my new kitchen island.  I realized that it is higher than my kitchen counter, which requires me to bend slightly when I am working at the counter. Which slight bend bothers my back. 

And, working at the kitchen counter, I have my back to the TV. Which meant I did a lot of twisting around to see what was on TV. I realized it would be really simple to move the island to where I can watch TV.

Tonight, I made a marinated salad for a pot luck, and I did it on the counter.  Standing at the island chopping did not bother my back, and I could watch TV.  What  great unintended consequence from this new purchase!   Yeah!

I do not think I will transfer my microwave to the top of the island.  The point in transferring my microwave was to give me more room on the counter to work, but I like the increase in height and the ability to face the TV more than I like the idea of moving the microwave.
