PAW’S CORNER

Potty Tales: Behold the Magic of Shop Towels

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: When I turned 78 years ago, my wringer washer broke. I hated toting laundry to the laundromat, and I hated lugging home kitty litter to my many cats. So I came up with a solution: I use washable cotton bed pads and cotton shop towels, laid out over plant trays. ey can quickly be washed in a big tub with hot water, soap and bleach. My cats took to them right away -- the big cats don’t miss the cotton pads, and my other cats will use the shop towels and then wrap them over their poop. e savings are tremendous for me, and there is no litter to buy and lug home. e shop towels last for years. It may sound weird to some people, but if you read the reviews under most cotton bed pads, many are purchased by people for their pets. -- Eva D., via email

DEAR EVA: What a unique solution. It seems like a lot of extra work compared to just lugging litter home, but then there’s the constant scooping and disposal that litter entails. ank you for the tip! ***

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Disposable potty pads can be expensive, and their plastic lining seems like a disaster for the environment. But my 15-year-old Chihuahua, Shemp, has incontinence problems and can’t make it outside when he needs to pee. Instead of going broke buying the pads, I line a plastic tray with newspaper and a cotton shop towel. I change this padding each time Shemp uses it, around two to three times per day. e newspaper is disposable, and I wash the shop towels in the laundry sink with soap and hot water. -- Jane K., Lexington, Kentucky

DEAR JANE: ank you for sharing this handy tip! Readers, note how frequently a potty pad must be changed to keep the area clean and odor-free and, most importantly, to keep your pet healthy.

PET OBESITY IS A GROWING PROBLEM

The Purina Pet Care Center found that overweight pets may live two years less than ideal weight pets. Reduced life span is not the only problem, as carrying extra pounds can contribute to various maladies. These include osteoarthritis and poor joint health, type 2 diabetes, ligament injuries, heart and respiratory disease, kidney disease, and cancer.

HOW TO MAKE GIFT WRAPPING EASIER

Work on a hard surface. It may be tempting to lay everything out on your bed and wrap gifts while you’re binge-watching the latest Netflix series. But hard surfaces make the best places to wrap gifts. This ensures there won’t be any wrinkles in the paper and that you won’t lose supplies in the bedspread.

Bella’s Bumbas… Giving Children Mobility for Christmas & Year-Round

Bella's Bumbas began in Webster, NY with the intention of providing one little girl, Bella, with a means to become mobile and navigate the world on her own. at initial intention has blossomed into Bella's Bumbas LTD, who've provided over 2,600 chairs to children in every US state and 65 countries across the globe!

Bella was born with Spina Bi da and has no feeling below her knees. A er seeing how limited she was when it came to mobility, Bella's aunt and uncle began looking for ways to help. ey saw the plans for the Bumbo wheelchair online and a er seeing the cost of the comparable commercial version, decided to make one for her.

is decision was spurred on by the fact that Bella's family's insurance, like many families, will only cover products that are deemed medically necessary. Insurance companies typically only cover a wheelchair once every ve years, a time-frame that would result in quickly outgrowing the covered wheelchair. Insurance also generally does not cover tiny wheelchairs until the child needs transportation such as a school bus. Imagine all the missed adventures and opportunities of not being independent and mobile between birth and school age.

A er building the rst chair and seeing just how much joy it brought Bella, simply being able to interact with her siblings and friends and get herself around, the family decided to make more chairs for other children facing mobility challenges. Each chair is hand-built in their Webster, NY workshop, with the assistance of many volunteers. Families are not charged for the chairs, they only ask that the families cover the shipping costs. In the United States, the shipping ranges from $62.40 to $74 depending on the seat style chosen. is, however, is only possible with the support of generous donors who help fund their non-pro t.

Each chair design (there are four to choose from) has been rigorously tested by children using them in real-world conditions, and are used on grass, carpet, and any surface a child might nd themselves. Each chair includes a push handle mount and can be customized to the child's needs with add-ons such as a basket, foot extension, Kris Kart for a portable ventilator, as well as a one hand drive, that can be independently rolled by a child with limited to no ability to use one or the arm, a one hand drive style.

eir chairs provide more than just mobility: they provide a way for a child to be more social and participate in life situations that they may not otherwise have been able to. ey can be used without worry at splash pads, playgrounds, or just outside playing with friends. Another bene t of the chair is that it provides children with exercise. e chairs help improve both upper body and core strength, and have even helped some children reduce the time they spend on breathing devices. Brain

& Life Magazine did an article showing doctors’ studies on how early mobility also a ects the child neurologically.

Bella’s Bumbas is a family run 501(c)3 non-pro t managed and run by Rebecca Orr (President), Je rey Shorr (Vice President), Marty Parzynski (Managing Director), Laurel Fletcher (Secretary), and Joshua Orr (Director), along with the help of many volunteers locally, nationally and internationally. It’s di cult to actually count all of the volunteers as so many people around the world help in anonymity, simply by sharing their stories of their “Bumbaleers”. Some build chairs, while others help by obtaining packing materials. eir common purpose is ensuring every child needing a chair receives one.

It only takes 15-30 minutes to assemble a chair. Want to volunteer? Rebecca says all you need is, “A big heart, packing experience, and a sense of humor.” Send an email to bellasbumbas@gmail.com subject line Interest in volunteering

Rebecca, what do you need right now? “Awarness and sharing our story. Donations are always welcome, and NO donation is ever too small. During the Pandemic donation funds de nitely hit a low point, but we kept rolling purely based on faith and Matthew 17:20. We received the most heartfelt donations during that time. e one most special to us was a donation from a grandmother in Poland who saw our story on the internet; she sent us $2.00. at is what keeps Bella’s Bumba ‘rolling’ … a ‘seed’ of faith.”

Rebecca summed it up with this thought: “When you donate, volunteer or share awareness about Bella’s Bumbas, you will indeed be helping more than just our organization…. literally others around the Globe.”

SOY FOODS PACK A POWERFUL PUNCH

The Cleveland Clinic notes that soy foods provide a host of nutritional benefits. Plant protein, including soy, can provide cardiovascular benefits, including helping with people with high blood pressure lower their blood pressure to healthier levels. While many people rely on animal-based proteins to get their daily recommended intake of protein, soy foods are naturally free of cholesterol and low in saturated fats. That makes soy foods more heart-healthy sources of protein than animal products. The Cleveland Clinic says substituting soy foods for animal-based proteins a few times per week can reduce a person’s risk for cardiovascular disease. Soy foods also can be a great source of dietary fiber, though the U.S. Soybean Export Council advises consumers that not all soy products are the same. The USSEC notes that foods like soy milk and tofu contain very little fiber. People who want to utilize soy beans as a source of dietary fiber should look to foods that utilize the whole bean, such tempeh, soy flour and textured soyprotein.TheUSSECalsonotes there’s some confusion in regard to the connection between soy foods and iron, though the group admits research is ongoing. While a 1/2 cup serving of cooked soybeanscontainsfourmilligrams ofiron,thephytateandsoyprotein present in soy foods reduce iron absorption, meaning that the body won’t really benefit from the iron. However,theUSSECrecommends consumers purchase fermented soy foods, including tempeh and miso, because the body might absorbmoreironfromthesefoods than it will when consuming other types soy foods.

Ten-Year Fracture Risk Determines Need for Osteoporosis Meds

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m 77 and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis. I’m taking Fosamax and following all the steps recommended for strengthening bones. But I have two questions: First, is it possible to avoid a fracture without taking medication? Second, is it necessary to avoid coffee completely? I am confused about both questions, having read a lot of conflicting information online. I recently finished reading a book that strongly condemned osteoporosis medication, and I have also read that coffee is OK, even good, for bones; though, other sources say it leeches calcium from bones. I would appreciate some clarity on these issues. -- J.M.

ANSWER: I have also read dire warnings about osteoporosis drugs, particularly the bisphosphonate class that includes alendronate (Fosamax), but the truth is more complex than it first appears.

The most important thing to realize is that every person has their own individual risk of developing an osteoporotic-type fracture. For young, healthy people with strong bones, the risk is very small, but as we age, the risk of fracture increases. Many medical conditions, as well as diet, exercise and some medications, affect the risk of fracture. Whether we are men or women, and even what our ethnicity is, affects fracture risk. The bone mineral density measured by a DEXA scan provides much information, but an accurate fracture risk prediction needs to take a person’s whole history into account. Only people at high risk for fracture should be taking a medication like Fosamax. A standard guideline is that people should be recommended medication therapy if their 10-year risk of a hip fracture is greater than 3%, or their 10-year risk of any kind of major osteoporotic fracture is 20% or higher. If a person’s risk is less than these numbers, they may be unnecessarily subjecting themselves to the risk of medication. The FRAX score is a standardized, country-specific way of estimating risk (www.sheffield.ac.uk/ FRAX/tool.aspx).

If a group of people has a risk of fracture of 20% in the next 10 years, then 80% of them will not have a fracture if they don’t take medication. Like treatment for high blood pressure or high cholesterol, medication treatment only helps a small proportion of those who receive it. We don’t have the ability to predict with certainty who will have a bad outcome from these conditions, so we recommend treating people when they reach a certain degree of risk.

Treating only higher-risk patients leads to the drug helping a higher proportion of the group, but some people who were not offered medication will develop the bad outcome we’re trying to avoid. A person who gets a hip fracture that could have been prevented with medication treatment is a tragedy. In my opinion, a person should know the risks of treatment and the risk of withholding treatment before making a decision.

The calcium question is also controversial, but while it is true that caffeine causes the body to lose calcium, if you take in enough calcium through diet, coffee does not seem to increase your risk of a fracture.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to

FAMILY-FRIENDLY WINTER ACTIVITIES

Skiing and snowboarding: The earlier youngsters start skiing and/or snowboarding, the more likely such activities will prove second nature. Many resorts offer skiing and snowboarding lessons to kids and adults, so parents can book weekend getaways for the family to nearby resorts and foster a love of winter sports in youngsters.

SENIOR NEWS

Finding Assisted Living

Is 2023 the year when you have to consider moving into assisted living? Or perhaps helping an elderly relative make the move? In either case, your rst steps should be gathering as much information as possible.

What type of care is needed? Daily help with everything from bathing to eating to remembering to take medications? Or is a more specialized, secure location needed for memory care? Or something in between?

What facilities are in your area? It will be important that friends and family can visit easily, as well as having access to the same medical care a er the move. Going out for lunch locally can go a long way toward keeping relationships intact.

Once you’ve selected a few facilities to explore, start digging for information. Call the state and ask about the licenses, accreditation and safety track records. Call your local re and police departments about potential safety issues.

Do you know anyone who works in one of the facilities you’re considering, or who knows someone who lives there? eir input could be crucial when it comes to learning about any rules the facility might have, or any sta shortages that could lead to problems with client care or any ongoing complaints about the food.

en ask for a tour at every facility on your list. Stay as long as you can and ask a lot of questions. Get a copy of the potential contract to give your attorney to review (ideally one specializing in elder law).

Money: You’ll need to know what everything costs, and by everything, that means all the fees that might not be included in the overall amount. Are clients charged for eld trips or special entertainment, for example? How about laundry costs?

As part of your information-gathering, go online and search for “how to select an assisted living facility” or something similar. Look for checklists of questions to ask. You’ll need all the information you can nd.

Thank You

On December 1st while coming out of a local pizzeria with pizza in hand I missed a step and fell onto the sidewalk. A gentleman helped me to my feet and made sure I was not injured. I would like to thank him for coming to my aid. It is nice to know that in a world where everyone is busy, a person will still take the time to help another when they need it.

Shout Out to the Bread Fairies

The Geneseo Groveland Emergency Food Pantry would like to thank Dave & Joe, fondly referred to as the Bread Fairies, for their selfless years of community service, picking up bread and other assorted items from Wegmans twice a week and delivering to local area food pantries and senior facilities. We hope the new regime does you proud!

Village Christmas Lights

Thank you to all who put up Christmas lights in the Village. This can be a hard time of year for people. It brightens the spirits when you can drive around the streets and see the beautiful colors and decorations. Take time to do that this season.

To the man in the pickup at the Bergen drive-thru

This is to thank the kind man driving the pickup (I believe a GMC Canyon) truck at the Bergen drive-thru who paid for my order on November 21st. I was so surprised when I got to the window and was told that you had paid. The rest of my day was so bright and hopeful because of your kindness. I think that I really needed to be reminded that day of the goodness in others. You touched my heart. Thank you.

Well Worth Reading

Many thanks to the author who submitted HOLIDAYS AND FENCES to the Penny Saver on December 9th 2022. It was beautifully written and the sentiments were commendable, especially for this time of the year. I intend to take the exhortation to heart and see what “fences” in my life need mending and to do so to the best of my ability. PS—As one who majored in English many years ago, it was delightful to see someone who knows how to write well and to clearly and creatively express serious ideas. Thank you for sharing your gift!

Thank you

On Dec 10th my husband lost a very large man-made tool drawer that he had in the back of his truck. He thought his tailgate was latched shut, but it was not, and the drawer full of his hand tools fell out onto the road on a local street. A wonderful man saw it, picked it up with all the tools and took it back to his home and posted that he found it on a local social media page. Someone who knows my husband, and knew that he had that type of tool drawer, called him, and informed him of the post and asked him if he lost his tools. A very happy ending and so thankful for this honest man.!

Christmas parade

My husband and I attended the best ever Christmas Parade on Main Street Honeoye Falls. So well orchestrated with decorated equipment from many countries. I want to say thank you to everyone who marched and took the time to decorate all the trucks beautifully. This includes the sheriff’s department and Santa on his motorcycle too. Well done to all and to all a good night. Merry Christmas.

Benefit for Maddox Olson

Thank you for all the support towards the Benefit for Maddox Olson, it was a great success! It beat even my high expectations.

Cohocton Ambulance

We would like to thank the Cohocton Ambulance and the great staff. Billy and the Ambulance crew all went above their duties to help us. Great big thank you to all the staff– still have some awesome people in the community. God Bless you all, happy holidays.

CARE FOR TOOLS PROPERLY

Homeowners often choose to save money and learn valuable skills by doing their own home improvement projects. These minor or major renovations are made much more successful by having the right tools for the job. Investing in good tools can be smart, but those tools are only effective if they are accessible and in good repair. Homeowners who emphasize taking care of their tools can make DIY projects that much easier and more rewarding.

Happy holidays! We hope your yuletide gatherings are all things magical and bright this festive season! Which flavor of holiday cookie is your favorite?

Brittney Griner, an American basketball star who had been imprisoned in Russia on drug charges, was traded for Viktor Bout, a Russian arms dealer. Russia was unwilling to consider releasing another detained American, Paul Whelan, who has been imprisoned since 2018.

Do you think President Biden made the right call by swapping Griner without also securing Paul Whelan?

14% Absolutely

9% He made the right call despite only securing one of them

45% He should have waited for a joint trade

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; e stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; e children were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I ew like a ash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. e moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow, Gave a lustre of midday to objects below, When what to my wondering eyes did appear, But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer, With a little old driver so lively and quick, I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick. More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name: "Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donner and Blitzen!

To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"

As leaves that before the wild hurricane y, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky; So up to the housetop the coursers they ew With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too—

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof e prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; A bundle of toys he had ung on his back, And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack.

His eyes—how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow; e stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath; He had a broad face and a little round belly at shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.

He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself; A wink of his eye and a twist of his head Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread; He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And lled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, And laying his nger aside of his nose, And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose; He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all ew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight— “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

a festive table on a dime YOU CAN DO IT!

Presentation is king when it comes to setting a memorable holiday table, and it needn’t be daunting or expensive. Here are some essential tips that will garner rave reviews at your next gathering.

Mercury Glass

It’s everywhere these days. From trees, to pumpkins, to candlestick holders, it’s timeless and transitions well from season to season.

Mix and Match

Don’t be afraid to mix metallics. This gold flatware, purchased second-hand, is a standout.

Start by scouring the house to see what you can mix and match to bring your table to life. Don’t be afraid to ask parents or grandparents for family heirlooms that they may be willing to part with.

One of the best investments you can make is solid white porcelain dishes. You can get them for a steal at most places and they’ll take you through every season. For a fun twist, layer them with whimsical holiday plates. Solid red napkins add a pop of color, and when placed under the plates, there’s no need for a runner or placemat.

Wooden reindeer, real pinecones and mixed greenery take the textural feel to the next level. Snips of spruce or boxwood trees from the yard up the texture, and best of all are free.

Add Interest with Height

A mix of faux and metallic pine trees give your table the height it needs. Be sure to place them strategically so your guests can easily see one another.

Experiment

Pinterest is a great place to get ideas. Take a stab at different napkin folding techniques and see what suits your fancy.

Where

splurgeto

Be Resourceful

Think outside the box. These heavy metal pinecones are confiscated from an old cuckoo clock. Add some freshly clipped greens and you’re good to go.

Details make all the difference. Adding personal placecards is a great touch that makes everyone feel special. How about adding a surprise lottery ticket to the bottom of a random plate? Sometimes a winner, and always a hit!

This dining room table is a restored farmhouse table. It seats 22 people when all leaves are in. If you’re going to go all out, do it here and know that it will be enjoyed for generations to come.

HOW TO NEGOTIATE (AND GET) A SALARY INCREASE

Salaries in the workplace have long been a hot-button issue for women. The differences in compensation for males and females continues to draw the attention of politicians and gender equality advocates alike.

The United States Department of Labor noted that, in 2015, the median weekly earnings for fulltime male workers increased by 2.2 percent from the year prior. During that same period, female earnings increased by just 0.8 percent. That latest data marks the third consecutive quarter that the increase in males’ earnings doubled that of females. On average, women who work fulltime earn 81.1 cents for every dollar men earn.

Women aware of that unfair gap in pay may feel helpless to address it with their bosses out of fear of being seen as unappreciative or selfish. In fact, addressing compensation makes many workers uncomfortable, regardless of their gender. According to a salary survey from PayScale, almost 60 percent of male and female workers do not ask for a raise. Negotiating salary increases requires finesse, timing and being informed. It also requires a certain measureofgumption.

Spring for coffee. Many employees require a caffeine buzz to get them through their busy days. The old pot in the break room may not deliver the best brews these days, and you can give employees another coffee fix to help them perk up. Check to see if independent coffee chains or even franchised businesses have to-go carafes. If not, consider purchasing a coffeehouse-inspired coffee maker, complete with the capabilities to make cappuccino and lattés.

HOW WOMEN

CAN KEEP THEIR CAREERS GOING FORWARD

expectations. Defining career expectations early on can be beneficial in various ways. Such expectations can guide career choices and provide a road map that women can utilize to stay the professional course. This can help women make decisions about their careers when they come to forks in the road. For example, if a path to promotion seems blocked, women can examine their established career expectations to help them decide if it’s time to seek new employment. Defining career expectations also can help women effectively communicate with mentors about their goals, and mentors can then use that information when offering guidance. Expectations need not be concrete, and it’s likely they will change over time. But they can serve as an important foundation for anyone from young female professionals to experienced executives looking to make changes or determine the next step in their careers.

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS

Speak up about your stress. As noted, stress at the workplace can affect workers’ performance, which employers are looking to optimize. Workers can speak to their employers if they feel their work environments are conducive to stress. Work in tandem with an employer to develop timesaving strategies that make it easier to get work done on time. Supervisors may encourage employees to delegate more often, freeing up time to get their work done. Employers may also direct employees to wellness resources that can help them more effectively combat stress.

Theoutcomesofsuchdiscussions may never be known if workers never take the initiative and speak up about their stress.
