Blank page at beginning of document

Using W7 Pro 64 bit
LibreOffice 4.3.1.2

I have noticed on 2 recent documents that when I adjust the height of the ruler on the left side I end up with a blank page on the front of the document that I cannot delete. I’ve tried saving in both .doc and .odf formats. I’ve also tried adjusting the header settings but nothing seems to clear up the extra page.

Anyone else having this issue?
