The Five Love Languages

By Gary Chapman,

If you haven't read this book - it is well worth it!  Did you know that there are 5 different ways that we can express love - for example: He sends you flowers when what you really want is time to talk.  She gives you a hug when what you really need is a home-cooked meal.  Most the time we learn love from our up bringing and learning through the years.  Finding your love language and your partners can really help you understand each others love needs more.  The five love languages are:  Quality Time * Words of Affirmation * Gifts * Acts of Service * Physical Touch.  I tell you if you can figure out your partners you will notice a huge mood change too - if you are unsure of their love language you need to read the book - heaps of examples and principles that actually make sense.   Below I have put a link to the books website if you want to learn more.

One hard week

Sometimes is just gets too hard to balance the books - this week is one of them.  I just have to watch everything I spend, but the worry is well up there.  Most companies will let you push your bills back if you call them - if you just push the bill in a draw it will be harder to arrange any payments.  But it is worth asking you may be surprised at how you can balance things.  This week is so hard as I want to pay a large bill so it is done with but it really doesn't look possible as I need to get food as well.  I have started to build up a stockpile so this will help in this area.  Which makes me realize how important it is to build a stockpile - specially in winter when you may get snowed in etc.  Plus if you can match it up with a sale and coupon you save so much.  Well I must get started and matching up my coupons and contacting some debtors.

Great Stuff for him

 I love this idea - from lookie what I did blog.  You could use this idea for everyone in your household or every room in your house.  Plus you could make a small or large board.
