Thank you for supporting The Grand Season and our business partners as you eat out, shop for home improvements and complete your “honey-do” list.

Make your old cabinets look and function like NEW without paying for a major remodel!

This month, rather than looking for the perfect gift or planning the perfect date, I’d like to encourage you to seek how you can effectively communicate love to those in your life— including yourself.

• Cabinetry Paint Refinishing • New Handles • Crown Molding • Soft Close Doors & Drawers • Hidden Hinges • New Pull-Outs • Replace Doors and Drawer Fronts

★

The truth is, love can look and feel differently to every person. One of my favorite books is The 5 Love Languages by Gary D. Chapman. This book suggests people feel love through receiving: words of affirmation, acts of service, gifts, quality time and physical touch.

GIVE YOUR CABINETS NEW LIFE!

▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ ▲▲ ▲▲ ▲

It’s February and love is definitely in the air! I think the best part about love is, as we age, we gain wisdom to understand that love is more than a pounding in our hearts, but rather a commitment to care deeply for others as we seek to help meet their needs.

Quality Attention to Every Detail

LOVE

APPRECIATION Show your spouse you care

Do you appreciate your spouse every day? If you want your relationship to make it for the long haul, then you will learn that big gestures are nice, but it’s the little things that count. Never let an opportunity pass you by to tell someone how much they mean to you. If you need ways to help you appreciate your spouse more, then here are some ideas that are sure to assist.

1. Say you love them every day.

Some people need to know how much they are loved and appreciated. As they pass you by, take time to tell them how you feel.

2. Leave love letters around your home.

If you want to show how much you appreciate your spouse, why not leave little love letters around the house. Using sticky notes are a great way to put messages for them to find.

3. Offer massages.

Nothing feels better after a long day than a back and neck rub. You can take turns massaging each other’s feet, necks, and backs. It’s an excellent way to release tension from stress and feel the loving touch of the one who holds your heart.

8

THE GRAND SEASON • FEBRUARY 2021

4. Listen and communicate with them.

The best thing that you can do for your spouse is to listen and effectively communicate with them.

Don’t interrupt when they’re trying to tell you about their day. Listen to every word they say,and validate their feelings.

5. Be playful.

Never lose the playfulness you had with your spouse from the start. Help them cook dinner, put on some great music, and take a quick dance around the room.

6. Smile when they look at you.

Sometimes the best thing to do is to say nothing, but instead, offer them a look that says it all. When your lover looks at you, grin. Not just any smile, but you want a smile so deep and genuine that it lights up your eyes.

Never let a moment pass you by where you don’t show the one you love how much you care.

You’re not promised tomorrow, make sure that if tomorrow never comes, your spouse knows how much you loved them.

DATE NIGHT

MAKE FUN HAPPEN! Keep your relationship fresh

When life gets busy, often it’s the ones you love the most are the ones who get the least of you. If you want to keep your relationship fresh, prioritize time with your partner.

3. Go thrifting.

Buying things secondhand is great for the environment.

4. Go to a driving range or batting cage.

Refine your swing. Admire each other’s perfect or imperfect form.

Scheduling a regular date night will not only allow you to spend quality time together— it will help you build new memories with one another.

5. Watch a movie outside.

Recreate the old-fashioned drive-through experience. A bit of wind and weather invites lots of cuddling opportunities.

If you’re not sure what to do for a date night, we’ve compiled some fun ideas:

6. Visit a botanical garden.

Elements of nature can have a re-centering effect on all of us.

Even the girl who hates camping can appreciate the beauty of a million flowers in full bloom.

1. Start a hobby together.

Pick something neither of you has tried before and watch what it brings out in the other person.

7. The sunset hike Sunsets are beautiful. There’s no need to wake up at an ungodly hour to see one. Combine the intimacy of a moment in nature with a dive back into the local social scene.

2.Go to an animal shelter to play with dogs.

Comfort an animal waiting for a home, and witness each other’s tender side.

COMPLETE

8. Brew your own beer.

Make some memories together with a long-term project that you can really call your own.

Like refining anything in the kitchen, you’re sure to both learn something about chemistry along the way!

9. Play jenga It’s a simple, fun game that allows a lot of time for great conversation.

10. Have fun with a blanket fort Get in the fort and keep each other warm…any way possible.

11. Learn common foreign phrases through YouTube.

Pick a place you both want to go and learn the basics together.

HEALTH

SLEEP TIGHT Fall asleep fast.

Have you ever spent far too long tossing and turning at night, trying to find sleep that eludes you? Do you struggle to feel sleepy at bedtime, leading to exhaustion and decreased positive thinking the next day?

Feeling sleepy doesn’t have to be difficult, and many methods have been found that can aid with the drowsiness process. Here is an effective way to fall asleep fast.

The Military Method This rather impressive method of getting to sleep, claims to allow individuals to fall asleep very quickly, within just a total of 120 seconds. It was created as a routine for pilots in the United States Navy Pre-Flight School.

The Military Method can take 6 weeks to perfect. But once you do, it will effectively put you to sleep even with very loud noises in the background or after a heavy dose of caffeine. It’s also said to work for those trying to sleep while sitting.

Here’s how to perform the Military Method of falling asleep: Step 1: Start by relaxing the muscles of your face, including those within your mouth.

Step 2: Lower your shoulders and let your hands go limp, falling beside your body, releasing tension in these areas.

Step 3: Relax your chest as you breathe out deeply.

Step 4: Relax your lower body – the thighs, legs, and calves.

Step 5: Empty your mind over the course of 10 seconds, clearing it by going to your happy place or envisioning something relaxing. If unable to do so, you can also repeatedly “say” the words “don’t think” to yourself again and again.

Step 6: That’s it; you should be snoozing in a mere 10 seconds, but keep doing this until you do fall asleep.

The act of visualizing a calm place can help manage the thoughts you experience that keep you awake–it’s even been found to have positive results for those with insomnia. Combined with careful breathing and muscle relaxation, you’ll be asleep in no time!

MOMENTS IN TIME

WHAT HAPPENED IN HISTORY

Big events that occurred during the month of February

February 10, 1996 After three hours, world chess champion Garry Kasparov loses the first game of a six-game match against Deep Blue, an IBM computer capable of evaluating 200 million moves per second.

February 13, 1861 The earliest military action to be revered with a Medal of Honor award is performed by Col. Bernard J.D. Irwin, an Army surgeon serving in the first major U.S.Apache conflict. The doctor volunteered to

rescue 2nd Lt. George Bascom, who was trapped with 60 soldiers by the Apaches.

February 15, 1903 The first Teddy bear goes on sale. Toy-store owner/ inventor Morris Michtom places two stuffed bears in his shop window, advertising them as Teddy bears, named after Theodore Roosevelt.

WE DO WEEDS!

February 19, 1847 On this day the first rescuers reach surviving members of the Donner Party, a group of California-bound emigrants stranded by snow in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

MONEY

SMALL WAYS TO SAVE

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

One of the biggest actions you can take to improve your finances is to learn how to budget money. When you’re budgeting well and living within your means, tackling other financial goals, becomes a reality. Without a budget, saving money in small amounts will only help so much.

Declare no-spend days

Whether for a month, a week, or just a few days, it’s beneficial to reset and find a way to recommit to your savings goals.

Ditch cable

The average cable bill is now more than $100 a month, but you can cut the cord—and still watch sports and live news—for far less.

We all know about binge-watching fave shows on Netflix and HBO Max, but fans of live TV are flocking to Sling TV and Hulu with Live TV. Find the services that offer what you want to watch and pay for those instead of cable.

Skip name brands

For times when you don’t have a particular label you love, opting for a no-name product can keep 25 percent more of your grocery budget in your wallet, according to Consumer Reports’ research.

Many name-brand foods and drugstore products contain the exact same ingredients as their generic counterparts.

Streamline your errands

For drivers, heading out on a different errand every day of the week can burn up your gas. Save gas, money, and the environment by bunching errands together one or two days of the week; you’ll be using your fuel more efficiently, and during the coronavirus crisis, you’ll limit your potential exposure to the virus.

Shut off and unplug electronics

Even if you’re not actively using them, electronics and device chargers use electricity, increasing your electric bill. Turn off lights and electronics when not in use and unplug what you can to save on utilities.

Put change in a jar

It may sound crazy, but we sometimes forget that coins carry value.

If you have loose change in your wallet or purse, you’re more likely to spend it—or lose it in the depths of your car or couch cushions.

By putting your excess daily change into a jar, you’re preventing frivolous spending. And once you have a healthy stash, you can take your coins to the bank and deposit them.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”
