What is an average amount and list of what a woman spends each month?

Q. Recently I have been trying explain to my husband that I want to get more things like clothes and highlights.

What are some monthly expenses for a woman. I am 25, so these are not just what a teen might spend. I am talking like pricing of keeping up highlights, nails, blue jeans, make up, face wash, lotions, tanning... things I'm forgetting...
The main reason I am asking... I am a SAHM and have a 6 month old. I have been married nearly 4 years, and I do not feel like I have enough money for me. Meaning, I get $50.00 a week for groceries, diapers, wipes, all the baby food, our food, all clothes my husband's, mine and the baby... i only get my hair cut twice a year, and my husband complains SO much when I talk about a manicure, highlights, new clothes (i've had these forever). I want him to understand that not only am i extremely cheap... someday down the road I don't want to have to be this cheap anymore.

A. Spend your own money on yourself.
Problem solved.

If you are a SAHM then you two should figure out what a reasonable weekly allowance is for both of you.
It's not based on "what you need" it's based on what you can afford and are willing to budget.

We allocate $200 a week to allowance. She gets $120 and I get $80; her allowance is spent on her and the kids that's why its more (ice-cream, trips to the zoo, etc...). If we do something special, like take kids to a carnival, I'll spend some of my allowance on it too and a lot of my allowance is spent on her too ;)
When the kids are a little older we'll pay them their allowance directly and my wife will go back to work and have her own money.
That allowance pays for everything not in the budget. e.g. gifts for birthday parties, gifts for each other etc... If you want something expensive you have to save.

So you get an idea of scale, I make $90k and we live in a small home and both of our cars are now paid off. If your household income is $40k you cannot afford to blow $200 a week.

Get the book in the source and have him read the chapter on material support. "She needs to live comfortably".
Most men, myself included, would live in a box for 10 years if it meant we were millionaire when it was over.
Few, if any, women would be willing to do that.


I had a crazy dream last night. Can anyone tell me what it means?
Q. So my dream started and I'm sitting on the bench watching a basketball game. The coach puts me in but I just keep falling down and when I do get the ball I run the opposite way. This dude in a full tuxedo wearing a monocle walks up and starts beating me with a red and black striped snake. The ref then comes over throws a rat on my chest and kicks me in the junk then I appear on top of a very tall building with Steve Erwin! He hands me a stock certificate for Proctor and Gamble tells me to bet on red and then he puts on a jet pack, grabs me, and flies off. He drops me off at the casino in Widsor and flies off again. I walk into the casino and go to the roulette table. Brad Pitt, Gina Davis, Terrell Owens, Will Smith, and Barack Obama are all there and the just keep beating on black and winning everytime! I walk up and set a $20 on red, they all bet on black and it hits red. I leave it all on red, they all bet black again, and it hits red again. They all walk off except for Barack. I leave it again on red and win again. I do this about 10 more times. Barack then pulls out a bag of weed and gives it to me and he walks off. A casino official walks over to me and hands me a check for $80,000 and a room key. I go to that room and it's a giant suite. I walk in the door a these seven naked chicks walk up and start rubbing me down. I tell them I'm married and they say they know. They point to the bed and my wife is sitting there masturbating. She says, "Happy birthday baby... I know you've always wanted a three way but I thought an nine way was 3 times better" I quickly rip off my clothes and jump in the bed but as soon as I hit the bed I fall through land in a pool full of kids. This beautiful woman walks up to me points at my junk and says what's that?

That's when I woke up!

Some background: I'm 29 and married with a 3-month-old baby girl. I've been married for about 2 and a half years I'm in an ok financial state. My sex life is the best it's ever been. I'm not a big gambler. When I do I play blackjack. I've only played roulette twice. I don't even know what Proctor and Gamble make. I never watched Steve Erwin's show. I played basketball as a kid and wasn't very good. I hate rats and snakes and love monopoly.

Any ideas?
I thought it was kind of weird because I DID in fact remember as much detail as I did!
Also this is 100% true. That's why I'm asking. I have better things to do at 12:45 AM then to make $#!t up! really want to know what this means!

A. One interpretation: You're on the bench, on a team, and coach puts you in play. Coach is father-model. You as father are not doing the team (your family) much good--your energies are running the wrong way, kind of "falling down on the job."

Dude in tuxedo is formal you: "I'm the father." But it's a penguin-type formality, stiff, out-of-place. The red and black snake is male anger, with which he beats you. The referee tells you you're a "rat," and his foot castrationally emphasizes the point. This is your wife's opinion of you as team player, as interpreted or felt by your waking subconscious, which becomes your dreaming conscious, and which is childlike or childish, depending on how you care for and champion it.

After being disappointed, your dreaming conscious shows its addictive nature: whether porn or gambling or etc., you seek self-esteem, endorphin enhancement, via fantastic victory with the "big players" or "big leagues." Some stars and pols are there, and you are given insider advice by one, which enables you to win over everyone, including the President, who hands you a gift of "weed." You receive a specific amount, an "8," which is a number of prosperity, btw, and a key to a room. You find 7 virgins, as it were, Then you say you're married, good move, and they point to your wife, masturbating. She's a bit lower in virtue than you, so masturbating and suggesting a 9-some is in slutty character.

At that point, wife and 7 virgins sound good, this = marriage, and you fall into a family pool. A beautiful woman, i.e. not so masturbatory-needy, points to your manhood, in a question-open way.

Beauty asks of your manhood a higher usage than wife and 7 virgins in a 9-way; it's called being a father, not merely a husband to a horny wife.

This sums up your awareness of your three-month-old as a beautiful woman who does not need your genitalia in the way your wife is entitled to, but needs your manly love to be beautiful without having to be sexualized or become a sex object in order to feel worth $80,000, etc.

"For Men Only" and "For Women Only," Shaunti Feldhahn, would be excellent co-reads for you both.
"Soul Mates and Twin Flames," Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and
"Sexual Force or the Winged Dragon," O. M. Aivanhov, are also worthwhile.

Reviews at http://www.amazon.com

"Bringing Up Girls" and "The New Strong Willed Child," Dr. James Dobson, are also worthwhile.

Gift ideas for my boyfriends 21st birthday?

Q. I have no clue what to get him, he's hard to shop for and has pretty much everything. Any ideas?

A. There are a lot of fun places to shop online... Think Geek has always been one of my favorites when it comes to buying gift for my husband.
http://www.thinkgeek.com/

Another place I look is on http://www.perpetualkid.com

I also like looking on Etsy-- Just search for some of his interests and you can find some fun stuff.


One year when my husband and I were still dating I bought us matching Nerf guns... we usually buy two a year to add to our collection and its become a fun tradition for us. :) Its fun to surprise him when he gets home by shooting him with a dart, lol.

I love making gift baskets and setting themes for them-- you could use one of his favorite shows as a theme. Or even like a Nerf gun theme.

Have fun and be creative :)


What are some good ideas of things to send to my fiance in Iraq?
Q. My fiance was deployed a while ago, I sent him a package with an auto magazine, photo album, some fruit snacks, hand sanitizer.. a few other odds and ends. Does anyone have any good ideas of things to send? Or things that would be useful? I sent him the build a bear with voice recording a couple months ago, and an Easter basket with candy and fun things.. Any other ideas!? Thank you so much for your feedback!

A. I send a package to my husband like every two weeks also when he deploys. I also have an 11 page attachment if you would like it that have different themed care packages that i have put together through hubby's deployments. These theme care packages make it a little more fun to shop for when you have a certain theme in mind. I have used many of them and then you can just talior it to your fiance. Here are some other sites:

Some things I sent hubby:
-summertime I sent a "Summer Fun Box", beach balls, frisbee, stick to door basketball hoop, nerf balls, etc.,
-things and snacks that i knew he would like. I also sent him things that his friends liked to because they didn't get much.
-cd's of his favorite music
-lots of cards and letters
-I also sent him a box full of unused cards such as thinking of you, Christmas Cards, Birthday Cards, Miss you cards, etc., that he could send back home to family and friends. It is hard to find cards there.
-I sent him Cake in A Jar
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1096421/how_to_bake_cake_in_a_jar.html?cat=22
-Sent him themed Care Packages (some can be as cute as you want and some can be as adult as you make it). One time I took a picture of our front door closed from the outside. Then a picture of the front door open and a picture of the floor. Then a picture of my shirt on the floor, then a picture of my shoes on the floor, then my socks on the floor, then my pants on the floor, then took a picture of my bra on the floor, then I took a picture of my undies on the floor, then I took a picture of our bedroom, then I took a picture of just the bed. Then put a little note that said wish you were here, miss you in my bed. Something like that. Remember though to take the pictures while making your way to the bedroom with the stuff on the floor so it looks like you are dropping your colthes on the way to the bedroom.
-Another thing you can do: buy a new pillowcase. Every night before you go to bed, take a shower but leave your hair a little damp before getting into bed. After a week, the pillowcase will smell like you. Package this up in a ziploc baggie and send a note with it "Something to remind you of me".
-Write in a journal. I sent this to hubby after every 2-3 months. Of course he still got plently of cards and letters but the journal was more thoughtful and more personal. I would write in it right before I went to bed. I wrote everything down, just like a regular journal. My feelings, what i did, what I ate, something that was funny to me that day, something that made me think of him that day, that I spoke to so and so, what the kids did, etc.,,. I then sent that to him. You know that sometimes we always don't get that long phone call or forget to tell them certain things by the time we do talk to them. Or letters that we don't want to make to long because we don't have the time. Hubby loved this because he said it still made him feel close to me and the kids even though he was gone for a year.
-Send him a photo album. Include pictures of his family, your family (as long as he likes them), kids, you, friends, his favorite car, his favorite boat, his favorite place to eat, his favorite place to visit, etc., I sent something like this to him and included letters from friends and family. I also put together a photo album every 4 months for him of things the girls and I did.
-Does he need anything for his room: storage containers, shelves, blankets, new sheets, pillows, footlockers (you know those rectangle black ones), a clock, picture frames, towels, washclothes, shower curtains (you would be surpised how yucky the ones they are using are), a foldable chair, a small table, paper plates, cups, silverware, etc.,
-Indivdually wrapped goodies and snacks. This way they stay fresher. this also includes the drink mixes that can be added to water.
-If he has access to a microwave, some microwave treats
-slippers, robe

Hope all is well and that some of these sites are useful. Good luck and have fun.


What should I gift to my grandmother on her birthday?
Q. Well, I want suggestions in Pakistani style so please give me an Idea. She already had stuff like Purse, Clothes, Sandles and other stuff. I dont want to gift some thing special so give a cheap and easy Idea that I can purchase shortly from Market. Dont include edible stuff in answer. She has books too.

A. I think a personalized design portrait is the best gift in this moment. Last month is our 4th wedding anniversary; my husband brought me a portrait with a sentence " Stand by you in the life". It is very touching and memorable to me since it recalled me so much our bittersweet moment in our life. You just simply select the best picture; the words you want to say and the artist will design everything to you. It is very special and unique because they combine graphic design in your portrait, so it completely different from other service just prints your photo on canvas or puzzle. Also, you can choose to print on a card, canvas or wood puzzle. I think it is pretty Cool thing. And all of process is hand-made. I Believe it will be the best precious possession if she receives it.
