Balance Zero

I keep my Redding scale on a high shelf at eye level. The position is important, otherwise you will be bending over all the time. source

From a link on otherwordlyglow's list, I think the Jackie O dress in the left of this image isn't dowdy at all - it's retro and hella sexy. Well, OK, it's tea-length, but picture if it went just to the tops of her knees. source

I'm sticking my nose in again because I thought of something else that may or may not be relevant. Anon , you mentioned that you got engaged quickly. I don't know how long you've been together or known each other. Is it possible that he's just not comfortable around your family yet so the idea of spending tons of time with your family just weirds him out? The boy and I have been together for just over two years, and I met his parents within six weeks of beginning our relationship. One year into the relationship, he asked me to go on vacation with him and his family. I agreed, but felt a little uncomfortable about the whole thing. Being around someone else's family isn't like being around your own, at least not for me. I feel like I have to be "on" the whole time, and that makes me tired. I'm starting to feel more comfortable around them now, but it takes time. Maybe time will make him more comfortable with your family. I don't think that you can count on it, but this may help explain his resentment now, especially if he is a relatively introverted person. I'm kind of rambling here and hope that this makes sense. source
