That would also work for a birthday, too. Glad to hear that the doctor's report was all clear!Happiness Herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358207304045986682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088474803825221065.post-64080270669033532552011-12-21T05:44:56.875-08:002011-12-21T05:44:56.875-08:00Create a journal just between you and him. Althoug...Create a journal just between you and him. Although you see each other every day our lives are so busy we sometimes can't squeeze everything in a day. You start the journal as a letter to him expressing your day your love your appreciation and things you just want to say that don't get said everyday. Or you can even make it a prayer journal a wifes prayer for her husband. Make it a practice once a week or once a month and exchange it back and forth. He can express himself to you. It's an intimate opportunity to express yourself with much thought and purpose.<br />Also, I have a God box that a dear friend gave me during a very stormy time in my life. It's a box that is filled with note paper to write prayers up to God and left in the box in the act of leaving it in His hands. There are also note papers with answers to prayer and items or other documents to remind me of the answered prayer and Gods provision, also letters, copies of unexpected checks, notes of encouragement. I love to go through my box and see the evidence of Gods provision for me and my familyAndrea Schafferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00035325807092247642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088474803825221065.post-32935009452480318592011-12-20T03:35:47.840-08:002011-12-20T03:35:47.840-08:00I don't know how he keeps his car but my husba...I don't know how he keeps his car but my husbands car is always dirty and littered with old cans. Maybe clean his car out, wipe it down, look for DIY air freshener. <br /><br />Or a sensual Christmas eve back rub. With candles and warmed lotions. <br /><br />Another idea would be to mod podge photos on to something he would use. You could get tiles at home depot for 19 cents a piece and make coasters (if he has an office he could use them there). Or look for free sideshow editing software online and make him a slides how of family pictures to a favorite song. <br /><br />That's what I can come up with off the top of my head.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088474803825221065.post-84963642936879960312011-12-19T23:26:33.435-08:002011-12-19T23:26:33.435-08:00Congratulations on your husband being C-free! Wha...Congratulations on your husband being C-free! What a wonderful gift! I don't have a ton of ideas, but the handmade coupon books are always fun. Fill it with things like a back rub, watching "the game" during one of your shows, his favorite meal, doing one of "his chores" (if that exists, lol!). You could also burn a cd for him with some of his favorite songs. This isn't totally free, but when you're on a tight budget, it seems like extras are rarely bought. Maybe something as simple as buying his favorite candy or making his favorite meal would be nice (You've gotta eat!). <br />Once when my husband and I were first married, I made fun lingerie out of construction paper! We couldn't afford the real thing! lol! We still laugh about that!Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16681732110006581625noreply@blogger.com
