BREEZE THROUGH SPRING CLEANING

Spring heralds a season of fresh starts and growth -- and what better way to start anew than with a little spring cleaning?

Taking the time to get organized can make all the difference -- and it can make the most cluttered closets and dirtiest corners a breeze to clean. With the right tools in hand, organizing any messy space becomes a mangeable task. You can save time and money by getting cleaning supplies, like dusters, sponges and automated air fresheners.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* My dogs stay outside most of the day now, while the weather is so nice. We bring them indoors when it gets too hot, but for a treat, we will freeze a plastic cup of ice and then chuck the giant “ice block” on the porch. They lick at it and play with it. It’s like a little doggie waterpark when they are done. -- M.E. in Ohio

* Finding a summer camp for your kids can be a chore. Check with your child’s school and school friends for recommendations. Also, see if your city’s recreation department is holding any camps. Some county extension offices (agriculture department) offer camps. Many of these are reasonably priced. Check into them now.

* I have a tip for you. When pouring water in your coffee pot, use a 4-inch funnel by placing it in the tank. Helps not spill water. Pour slowly!

-- P.T. in Illinois

* To keep the kitchen garbage can from smelling, put meat, vegetables, fruit and peelings in a bread bag, and put it in the freezer until you take it outside for the garbage collector. -- E.L. in Virginia

* Keep fast-food coupons in your car’s glove compartment. They will be there if you need to go to a drive-through, and will be handy for picking up dinner on the way home. If you need them at home, chances are your car is there anyway! -- F.D. in Alabama

* Got paper recycling? More and more schools are using paper recycling as a means to fundraise. Don’t have a kid in school? Drive by and look for a dumpster or bin that’s labeled. Odds are good you might find one. If you don’t, ask!

HOW TO MAKE FATHER’S DAY MORE ENJOYABLE FOR DAD

SPORTS SUNDAY: If Dad is a sports fan, his idea of spending a fun-filled afternoon very well may be cheering on his favorite players. Whether your father enjoys golf, tennis,baseball,soccer,or another sport like hunting or fishing, chances are there is a television broadcast on that you can watch together. Otherwise, you can surprise Dad by purchasing tickets to a sporting event and making a dayof it at the ballpark.

MOTHER’S DAY CELEBRATION IDEAS

HANDYMEN/WOMEN

The Crafter

Mothers who are avid crafters may enjoy a craft-themed Mother’s Day. A family crafting project can make for a fun afternoon and produce mementos that Mom will cherish for years to come. Dads and kids can plan the project in advance without Mom’s knowledge, arranging all of the materials ahead of time and setting up the crafting station the night before or while Mom is relaxing on Mother’s Day morning. Kids can even get a head start on the day by making their own craft for Mom and giving it to her as a Mother’s Day present. Dads can keep the craft theme going at dinner and get a laugh out of Mom by pouring her a craft beer when dinner is served.

ROOMS CAN SERVE DOUBLE DUTY

Many homes do not have space for guest rooms, kids’ play areas andhometheaterloungesthatare possibleinhomeswithsubstantial square footage. But they may not be missing out at all.

While large homes remain popular, many people are embracing the benefits of smaller residences. Small homes help owners save money, require less maintenance, havesmallerenvironmentalimpact, and reduce the temptation to accumulate“stuff.”

Owners of small homes or apartments can still enjoy the benefitsoflargerspaces,theyjust need to equip rooms to perform double duty.

Unique gifts ideas for Mother’s Day

Parts unknown: Moms who love to travel and experience other cultures would certainly appreciate a trip abroad or a domestic getaway to a region of the country they have yet to explore. Before booking any such trips, speak to your Mom and ask if there’s anywhere in particular she’d like to go. Such trips can be expensive, so adults might want to speak to their siblings and finance such an excursion together.

The tradition of Mother’s Day in the United States dates back more than a century to 1908, when West Virginia native Anna Jarvis held a memorial service to honor her mother, who had passed away three years earlier, and all mothers in Grafton, West Virginia. Mother’s Day would ultimately become a national holiday in the United States in 1914, thanks in large part to Jarvis’ campaigning. As Jarvis, who never married and never had children of her own, grew old, she criticized Mother’s Day as overly commercial, even trying to have it removed from the calendar. Those efforts failed, and Mother’s Day remains popular now, more than 100 years after the idea for it was conceived.

Shop Smart for Mother’s Day

Do some sleuthing. Play detective and take inventory of what Mom likes to do the most. If you ask your mother what she wants, she will likely brush off the question and tell you nothing. It is up to you to do the investigative work. Pay attention to conversations and see if there is anything she mentions wanting to try or something around the house that may need updating. Practical gifts are less likely to end up unopened in the basement or attic.

PAW’S CORNER

Preventing Ear Infections in Dogs

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My German Shepherd puppy, Max, seems to get an ear infection every other week. He’s miserable, shaking his head from side to side. And he hates having ear drops put in -- a job that gets more di cult the larger he gets! How can I stop the constant ear infections? --

Betsy J., Syracuse, New York

DEAR BETSY: Dogs can be very prone to ear infections. e shape of their ear canal is the most likely reason. Allergies and ear mites vie for the title of top irritant in a pet’s ear canal.

e symptoms are probably very familiar to you. Dark discharge from the ears, accompanied by an unusual, dank odor, frequent head shaking, scratching at the ears, and perhaps some scabbing of the outer ear. A veterinarian can pinpoint redness and swelling inside the ear canal as well.

Treatment should always start at the veterinarian’s o ce. ere, cleaning and disinfection of the ear will be done, and then your dog will likely be prescribed medication -- typically eardrops -- to be administered for up to 10 days. A er treatment is complete, you’ll want to prevent future infections by gently cleaning Max’s ears with an ear cleaning solution for dogs and cotton balls (not Q-tips).

Getting a big dog to hold still for treatment can be a struggle. Here’s one method: If he’s very reactive, try to stand over Max with one leg on each side and his head facing forward, away from you. Hold him under his muzzle and apply the medication or cleaning solution to one ear and massage the base of the ear for 30 seconds. Let go of his muzzle and allow him to shake his head. Repeat on the other side. Finish by gently swiping the ear canal with cotton balls.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Exercise Builds Strength and Improves Limits in Those With Arthritis

DEAR DR. ROACH: I so appreciated your recent column on arthritis, specifically osteoarthritis. I’m a big exerciser; however, I have always heard that this arthritis is caused or exacerbated by wear and tear. I was surprised to hear otherwise!

I have modified or given up a handful of exercises that seem to cause my joints more pain, specifically fullbody weight-bearing on my wrists. Are these exercises I can incorporate back into my routine? I have found that certain activities, i.e. card shuffling, buttoning, etc., hurt my thumbs, so I have made adaptations. Should I work through the pain, assuming that I am not causing any more damage to my joints? -- L.D.

ANSWER: Most exercise is not damaging to joints, but high-impact or high-frequency activities can certainly worsen arthritis pain.

For arthritis of the knees and hips, I recommend walking as the best exercise, starting slow and building up based on what a person can tolerate. It’s the movement, not the resistance, that’s most important, so swimming (or just walking in a pool) is a great option for people who feel too much pain from walking.

For the smaller joints of the hands and wrists, I would recommend activities that don’t hurt you as much. Stretching the joints and movements like squeezing are a good place to start. You might consider a “stress ball” or a hand therapy ball to provide some resistance and build up hand strength.

Adapting your activities to your limitations is a good idea, but you also want to work on improving those limitations. A physical or occupational therapist is your best partner in designing a program.

Don’t forget that over-the-counter topical antiinflammatory medicines, like diclofenac, are pretty effective with small joints and are very safe.

Who doesn't love Charles M. Schulz's creations — Snoopy and the gang — which are going strong (via reruns) even today?

1895: The First-Ever Color Cartoon Richard Outcault creates a single-panel color cartoon for the New York Sunday World, with the main character called The Yellow Kid (or Mickey Dugan).

“Garfield” (1978) Created by Jim Davis, this chronic American strip was initially released under the name 'Jon.' We don't know about you, but we definitely want a greedy, snarky orange cat just like Garfield, and maybe an Odie too.

Which one is only pictured once?

Heavy Li ing of Pet Ownership

For seniors, there are several questions that arise when we consider whether we should adopt another pet a er the death of a long-loved companion. ere’s the scary thought of potential veterinary bills or whether we should own a dog that needs to be walked every day. Or maybe we think of adopting a young cat who will likely outlive us or an elderly cat who probably won’t.

I rmly believe, however, that when it comes to deciding about adopting a pet that the biggest potential problem comes down to heavy li ing.

e rule of four, I call it: ere are four likely scenarios wherein, without intervention or assistance, heavy li ing is required.

For the economical 40-pound bag of dog chow, I would need to li it into the shopping cart, put it on the conveyor belt at checkout, get it into the car and once home, get it into the house. at’s four li ings.

is applies to even the 20-pound jug of cat litter. I do the math: 4 times 20 equals 80 pounds I’d be li ing without interventions.

Interventions can take the shape of a strong teenage boy angel who happens to walk by in the pet supplies aisle; a store clerk who gets down cat litter from a very high shelf; checkouts with a radar gun on a stretchy cord that will reach to the cart to scan the bar code; and big neighbors who happen to be strolling by just as I’m pulling in my driveway.

Without luck, however, there have been too many times when all four li ings have been required. I su er the next day.

I have decided to cut my pet-related li ing down to none. I have signed up for home delivery at two stores, never mind the expense. It’s worth every penny to see other people walk up my driveway carrying the heavy items, fully appreciative of the fact that I don’t have to do any li ing whatsoever.

NATIONAL TEACHER DAY SPOTLIGHT ON VICTORIA E. GERHARDT

BY MARY MAGER

On May 4, National Teacher Day, we celebrate the work and dedication of our educators and all they do for our children. With the deluge of crises facing our school systems, educators have had to rise to many critical challenges as they lend support, care, and innovation to students. Alongside those teachers are the other professionals rounding out the academic teams in those schools.

Meet Victoria E. Gerhardt, West Irondequoit School social worker. She aims to bring attention and awareness through social emotional learning (SEL) to empower every student. Dividing her time among three di erent schools (Brookview, Briarwood, and Seneca),shereliesonherabilitytoworkwithallpeople,hersenseof humor, and calm presence. Allowing children to be heard in a safe environment with boundaries develops a respectful relationship between them and herself. Trained in threat assessment, she constantly assesses situations for potential danger.

She relies on her diversi ed mental health background to relate to both students and their families. Because social work is a vast eld, it allows Victoria opportunities to work in various areas. e heart transplant unit at Strong Hospital was her starting point, where she worked with patients (and their families) undergoing ventricular-assisted devices and heart transplants. ere, she led a support group and was with families throughout the heart transplant journey. A erwards, she transitioned to pediatric palliative care, working with children with life-threatening illnesses. Victoria devoted her time to both the child and their family from diagnosis to cure or from diagnosis to grief and loss. eseexperiencesheightenedherself-awarenessandherability to nurture strong collegial relationships and excellent professional boundaries. She prides herself on being a team player and a problem solver. Frequently, Victoria problem solves and consults with teachers. Entering the classroom restores the professional dialogue between her and sta , and she likes to partner with teachers to strengthen parent communication. To bridge the connection between home and school, she relates with parents. For example, in CSE meetings, she has learned to gauge parents’ reactions, prompting her to clarify, so they don’t get lost in academic lingo.

Victoria’s people skills make her an e ective school social worker. She emphasizes building rapport and meeting students where they are. Making children feel seen, valued, wanted, and heard are some of her strongest skills. SEL is one of Victoria’s specialties. It is a foundation of learning, allowing students to perform their best academically once they’ve learned coping techniques to regulate emotions and stressors. Social emotional learning meets students where they are. Mindfulness is an essential part of SEL, as Victoria says, “We are processing our jobs, responsibilities, families, obligations, goals and constant demands,” and we need to recharge. Victoria helps “[empower] educators to empower students.”

John Steinbeck once said, “Teaching might be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.” It’s no doubt that Victoria Gerhardt touches the lives of her students

via this medium. “When a parent tells me I’ve made a di erence in their child’s life, that is one of my most rewarding career moments.”Victoria’slessons derive from the 3 Rs. She teaches self-awareness and emotional regulation so students can be successful and independent learners for the rest of their lives. Triggerswillalwaysthreaten students’ interpersonal relationships. Learning to take responsibility and deal with those feelings will help them make good decisions.

Victoria shares her thoughts and practices on a blog, themindfulapple.com, which has become a valuable resource for other school social workers, parents, as well as classroom teachers. Shesays,“Studentswillmeettheirtomorrowswithhope,con dence and health!” is optimism opens the door for everyone. Creative resources include units on emotions, positive thinking, and humor and laughter. All encourage a healthy mindset and coping skills.

Victoria’s advice is “Start small and stay consistent.” For instance, daily journaling allowing children to free write encourages “feeling exploration and self-awareness.” Victoria uncovers the emotional domino e ect that o en causes students to spiral out of control. She helps guide children through easy, productive steps so they learn to identify emotions and triggers, employing successful coping strategies on their roadmap to success for optimal mental health.

Her strong character, morals, and honesty are very driven, and she remains true to herself. Her faith grounds her, and being passionate about what is best for the student is a priority. Victoria’s love for children keeps her motivated. is comes naturally to her, andshebelievesinwhatshedoesandthatshe’smakingadi erence.

While in the work environment, Victoria’s sense of humor, strongsupportgroupofcolleagues,andherprofessionalboundaries help her handle stress. Outside school, she cherishes time with family. She loves the outdoors and nature, traveling, hiking, and walking. Within the home, she loves to read and cook.

MOTHER’S DAY CELEBRATION IDEAS

The Reader

A 2017 survey from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that women read more than men. Women read an average of 19.8 minutes per day, which can make a Mother’s Day focused on Mom’s love of books an ideal and unique way to spend the day. Kids can write Mom their own books, and Dad can help put them together. Dads can visit rare bookstores and look for original copies of Mom’s favorite books that she might not find elsewhere.

BRAIN-HEALTHY HABITS TO EMBRACE

Cognitive decline is a condition that is often associated with aging, but even middle-aged people can experience memory loss or cognition issues.

The Alzheimer’s Association says that more than five million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. By 2050, that number could rise to as high as 16 million people. More than 747,000 Canadians are living with Alzheimer’s or another dementia, says the Canadian Alzheimer’s Association.

Although there is no definitive way to prevent dementia, living a long, vibrant life may be possible by encouraging some healthy habits for the brain. It is never too late or too early to begin health and lifestyle changes.

Exercise: Becoming more active can improve brain volume, reduce risk for dementia and improve thinking and memory skills. The journal Neurology found that older people who vigorously exercise performed better on cognitive tests than others of the same age, placing them at the equivalent of 10 years younger. Increased blood flow that occurs with physical activity may help generate new neurons in the hippocampus, an area of the brain involved with learning and memory.

The Harvard Medical School says aerobic exercise may help improve brain tissue by improving blood flow and reducing the chances of injury to the brain from cholesterol buildup in blood vessels.

Quit smoking: The Alzheimer’s Association indicates that evidence shows smoking increases the risk of cognitive decline. Smoking can impair blood flow to the brain and cause small strokes that may damage blood vessels.

Eat healthy foods: Foods that are good for the heart and blood vessels also are good for the brain. These include fresh fruits and vegetables,

whole grains, fish-based proteins, unsaturated fats, and foods containing omega-3 fatty acids. Neurologists state that, while research on diet and cognitive function is limited, diets, such as Mediterranean and Mediterranean-DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), may contribute to a lower risk of cognitive issues.

Consume caffeine: Caffeine may help boost memory performance and brain health. A Journal of Nutrition study found people ages 70 and older who consumed more caffeine scored better on tests of mental function than those who consumed less caffeine. Caffeine may help improve attention span, cognitive function and feelings of well-being. Information from Psychology Today also indicates caffeine may help in the storage of dopamine, which can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety. In addition, compounds in cocoa and coffee beans may improve vascular health and help repair cellular damage due to high antioxidant levels.

Work the brain: Engaging in mentally stimulating activities can create new brain connections and more backup circuits, states Dr. Joel Salinas, a neurologist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. Working the brain through puzzles, reading and participating in social situations can stimulate the release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a molecule essential for repairing brain cells and creating connections between them.

A good way to combine these lifestyle factors is to take an exercise class with friends, mixing the social, stimulation and exercise recommendations together.

Cognitive decline can come with aging, but through healthy habits, people can reduce their risk of memory loss and dementia.

Q&A Master Gardeners with the

What plants are most effective to grow in containers?

Most vegetables grown in a backyard can be grown in containers, although a container’s diameter and depth need to be considered when selecting what vegetables to grow. Plant density (number of vegetable plants per container) depends on individual plant space requirements and root depth. Containers-grown plants require more frequent fertilization typically than in ground plants because of the limited space within the container for drawing nutrients. Fertilizer can be mixed with the potting mix pre-planting, or you

can purchase potting mix with a starter fertilizer mixed in. Plants grown in containers need frequent watering as containers dry out fast. Watering daily is necessary to provide adequate moisture for plant growth. Apply enough water to reach the bottom of the container. Allow excess water to drain out. Avoid wetting the leaves when watering as this will encourage development of foliar diseases. Try not to let your container dry out completely between watering as this will lead to flower and fruit drop of. The size of the container needs will depend a lot on the vegetable or herbs you

plant. Most herbs can be grown in ½-1 gal containers. Cabbage, Cucumbers, green beans, leaf lettuce, spinach, Swiss chard, and cherry tomatoes can be planted in a 1-gallon containers. Beets, Carrots, Eggplant, Peppers, and radishes need 2-gallon containers. Your regular tomatoes will need 3-gallon containers. My personal preference is a

20 gallon grow bag where you can grow multiple vegetables together if they are companion plants (they can and like to grow together). Note: some don’t like to be grown together.

Theater tickets: If Mom is a fan of live theater then nothing will elicit a bigger smile than tickets to a Broadway show she has had her eyes on. If Broadway is a bit too far for you to travel, do your homework and find a traveling production of a former Broadway show. Such productions often feature many of the same actors who made the play famous on Broadway so you’re still bound to see an unforgettable show Mom will love.

Northhampton County Park Heroes

Hats off and a big thank you to the park staff and volunteers that maintain the miles of trails in Northhampton Park. With the many windstorms, and numerous dead ash trees, it has been quite a chore clearing trails so that the park hikers are able to enjoy their time in the park safely. You are appreciated!

Anonymous Donor

My friend and I were having lunch on 4/26. Our waitress told us an anonymous donor paid part of our bill. A special thank you for your kindness. It made our day!

Thank you volunteer organizations

I’d just like to give a quick shout-out to all the volunteer non-profit organizations out there doing great things for their communities. Whether it be picking up trash along trails, keeping fire hydrants clear of debris, helping to keep food pantry shelves stocked/organized, collecting items for animal shelters and beyond... THANK YOU!

Some Home Owners

Home owners that have abandoned swimming pools in their back yard are probably breeding mosquitos. Some form of wildlife could fall into it and not be able to get out. Of course some folks just have no pride in what their property looks like. Just sayin....

Missing Front License Plates

Why do so many vehicles with NY license plates on the back now not have front license plates? (This is especially true of Teslas, which Elon Musk doesn’t bother to build with a front license plate holder, but also plenty of other vehicles.) Did NY eliminate the requirement of a front plate without telling the rest of us? Or is this just another example of people thinking the rules only apply to others? The Thruway might be able to avoid a toll increase if they were allowed to charge fines to all of the vehicles passing through their toll cameras that have NY rear plates but no front plate!

Disrespectful

I sure hope that the mowers at a local cemetery are held accountable for destroying flowers that were left at graves. Destroyed flowers were spread by the mower and left. How could anyone do that!
