When you plan for outlets, consider having them put in at just above counter height. Much easier to corral the cords, and keep small furry people safe. Also, if you are like me, and have trouble getting enough exercise, set it up so you have to get up to move to different "stations" for each purpose. I have to get up to iron, go around the table to cut, and go back and sit down to sew. Sounds silly, but it has helped this crazy old broad take off nearly 200lbs. (That and better food choices.)
