Kilter?

I know what it means, how to use it in a sentence, but where does it come from? Was there ever such a thing as a kilter? I often say I am off-kilter. Can I ever say I am back on kilter? Thank you!

When were several days left out of the calender to bring it up to date? I know it was in September and I think it was in the eighteenth century, but that's as far as I can remember.
