The method is to split the L-shape into two solid rectangles, find the centre of mass for each, and then calculate a weighted average based on their areas. I remember teaching this, the steps clear as a recipe. But in my own life, I have learned that some things cannot be so neatly divided and reassembled; you cannot find your own centre by simply adding up the roles you've played. This year, in my quiet kitchen, I am learning that my centre of mass lies not in the split, but in the whole, uneven shape of me.
