The beginning of the year is an ideal time to get organized and set oneself up for productive months ahead. It’s also a good opportunity to take inventory of seldom-used items and clear out as much clutter as possible. The amount of stuff the average person owns can affect how easy or difficult it is for that person to get organized. In 2014, professional organizer Regina Lark estimated the average American home contains 300,000 items. And it’s not just adults who love to collect and keep things, as kids contribute to the problem, too. British research, as published in The Telegraph, indicates the average 10-year-old owns 238 toys, playing with just 12 in a typical day. All of these belongings contribute to disorganization and lost time. A study by Esure Home Insurance found looking for lost items accounts for 10 minutes of wasted time each day. Getting organized can take perseverance, but it’s possible.

UNIQUE WAYS LOCAL BUSINESSES CAN WORK TOGETHER Consider cross-promotional events. Cross-promotion is a marketing endeavor in which two or more businesses work together to promote a service or product. For example, a local brewery may partner with a local restaurant to showcase a new beer release and a special menu item that pairs well with that particular beer. These types of promotions shed light on what each business can offer, and many consumers would be happy to learn they’re supporting at least two local businesses at the same time.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Let’s HEAR it for 2024!
By Keith Roach, M.D.
Blood Bank Turns Away Donor With High Iron Levels
Wishing you your best year yet!
---
DEAR DR. ROACH: Recently, I was rejected from donating plasma (not blood) because my iron that day was 57 mcmol/L, and the maximum allowable was 54 mcmol/L. I was rescheduled to get retested in a few days. The technician said to eat beans and similar foods to lower my iron levels. I checked my own records and didn’t find any results that fell below the cutoff. My red blood cell count was 5.15; my white blood cell count was 6.0; my hemoglobin level was 16.1 g/dL; and my hematocrit level was 48.5%, all within the healthy range. Which test results could they be referring to, and how do I lower my iron? -- S.L. ANSWER: Blood banks typically screen donors for anemia, which is frequently caused by iron deficiency, but I’m confused as to why they are screening you with iron tests because that is typically not done. Moreover, they are telling you that your iron is too high, which is the opposite of the iron-deficiency anemia that is usually looked for. I recommend that you see your own physician and get retested. If we take the blood bank at their word, and your iron level is too high, that raises the possibility of hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), which is caused by a defect of iron absorption. With this condition, your body absorbs as much iron as possible, even if it doesn’t need any. This causes iron overload, which damages the heart, liver, bone marrow, adrenal glands, skin and joints, just to name a few. HH is easy to treat once the diagnosis is made. However, making the diagnosis requires thinking about the possibility, and it’s uncommon enough that a lot of healthcare professionals don’t think about it right away. Your doctor should test your iron and ironbinding capacity, as well as your ferritin level, which tends to correlate with the total amount of body iron stores. But I don’t want to jump to conclusions, which is why your own doctor should test you to see if you really do have excess iron.

Here’s a Tip * If you like taking baths, you can invest in a second rubber bath mat to drape over the side of the tub. The edge will be nonslip, so you can hold on for support and your hands will not slide. * Sunburn happens in the winter too, especially on the slopes. Use a cotton ball soaked in cold tea to ease tight dry skin. Be sure you apply sunscreen to your face and wear eye protection when going out to play in the snow. * For drains slowed by grease, sprinkle a half-cup each of salt and baking soda down the drain, and follow it with an entire kettle or pot of boiling water. * If the smell in your cedar chest has faded, you can bring it back easily with extra-fine sandpaper. A very light sanding is all it takes in most cases. (c) 2023 King Features Synd., Inc.

New this Year! Purchase a half page or larger and receive a FREE advertorial of the same size. DID YOU KNOW? The pinnacle of birthday celebrations, if there’s no piñata to break open, is when the birthday cake comes out and party attendees serenade the guest of honor. The song everyone harmonizes to is among the most widely recognized and well-loved tunes in the world. The “birthday song,” also known as “Happy Birthday to You,” is in the public domain in the United States and the European Union. The song originally was penned as a classroom greeting song titled “Good Morning to All,” written by sisters Mildred J. Hill and Patty Smith Hill. Both were educators and developed unique teaching strategies to assist students. The song was composed by Mildred and the lyrics were written by Patty to be used in kindergarten classrooms. It is unclear who changed the lyrics and turned the song into a birthday ditty, as none of the earliest references to the song included credits or copyright notices. Two tales circulate regarding the eventual copyright of the song. One has The Summy Company registering a copyright in 1935, crediting authors Preston Ware Orem and Mrs. R. R. Forman. The other says Jessica Hill, sister to Mildred and Patty, who was working with publisher Clayton F. Summy Company, copyrighted and published “Happy Birthday to You” in 1935. Eventually Warner Chappell bought the company that was originally The Summy Company, and argued the birthday song was under copyright until 2030, making performances of the song illegal without paying royalties. However, a federal judge ruled in 2015 that Warner Chappell’s claim to a copyright on the song was not valid. The judge ruled its registration only covered a specific piano version, not the melody and lyrics. Therefore, “Happy Birthday to You” can be sung both privately and publicly without being subject to royalties or other restrictions. GENESEE VALLEY PENNY SAVER ● GVPENNYSAVER.COM 1-866-812-8111

Susan B. Anthony House: A Glimpse into the Heart of Suffrage History BY SUZIE WELLS
I
n preparation for the upcoming Day of History competition, my daughter and her groupmates recently joined their teacher at Rochester’s Susan B. Anthony house. Thankfully, the group didn’t mind me and another daughter tagging along for the tour that day. What a treasure right in town! Unassuming from the outside (though a little taller than expected, and we learned Anthony’s team outgrew the space and raised the roof to add a third floor so the team could have more space), I would never have imagined 17 Madison St. held such a treasure. On our visit, we toured the spaces Anthony, her family, and her suffragist team called home through those incredible years. The preservation and education organization has done an incredible job bringing history alive for visitors. Their goal/vision statement of inspiring others through Anthony’s life and work truly seems effective. Born in Adams, MA in 1820, the second of seven children, Anthony attended school in Battenville, NY but she and her sister were pulled from school when their father Daniel learned the girls weren’t allowed to learn the same subjects as the boys. The Anthony family then opened their own home to serve as a school, teaching boys and girls as equals. The family moved to Rochester in 1845, and the following year Susan began teaching at Canajoharie Academy. The Anthony household became a meeting place for anti-slavery activists such as Frederick Douglass. In 1851, Anthony attended an anti-slavery convention in Seneca Falls, and the rest was history. Never one to allow someone else to tell her what to think or say, Anthony met with Amelia Bloomer (founder of the very-practical pants, allowing women freedom of movement with their attire) and listened to impassioned speeches at the convention. There, she also met Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Anthony and Stanton ended up quite the pair as the movement gained traction. Anthony is known for her confidence, her courage in the face of adversity, her legal expertise, and her poignant speeches. The SBA House docent shared a few nuggets such as Anthony’s purposeful choice to always wear modest, no frills, black and white acceptably feminine outfits so her audience would pay attention to her ideas and not simply comment on or criticize her for statement-making attire, such as happened when Bloomer and other such revolutionaries tried to share their opinions but with socially unacceptable bloomers on. Anthony, her sister Mary, and their mother Lucy, moved into the Madison St. home in 1865 as tenants. Lucy purchased the home a year later, and Mary purchased it from her mother in 1873. Susan purposefully never married, so she could focus on her anti-slavery and women’s rights campaign, free to travel solo and spread the word. Traveling often by train or coach, Anthony traveled light but became known for her purse.
swim,” and they call for the doctor, the nurse, and the lady with the alligator purse. Over the years, I had forgotten how the rhyme went, except that versions always had the lady with the alligator purse prescribe something other than penicillin or aspirin as the doctor and nurse did (I seem to remember she prescribes pizza). According to the docent, the rhyme ends with the lady with the alligator purse saying “Vote!” We should all treasure our freedom and rights to vote by educating ourselves on the issues of the day, and making our voices heard through the ballot box as women such as Anthony worked hard to attain. “One of the world’s greatest revolutionaries,” Anthony was famously arrested in Rochester in 1872 for voting when it was not yet socially acceptable (and debatably legal) for women to do so. As the docent explained, Anthony happily let herself be arrested instead of quietly paying a fine and being scolded. As she awaited trial, she continued to lecture and spread ideas of women’s and African American rights, stirring up so much controversy that she had to be tried in the next county over. Hence, the Ontario County Courthouse in Canandaigua famously hosted her trial. Anthony’s trial itself caused controversy. She was fined $100 after the judge refused to hear Anthony’s arguments and ordered the jury to find her guilty. However, as the docent explained with a laugh, Anthony never paid that fine because she felt it unjust. Anthony died in 1906, unfortunately years before women officially attained the right to vote, but to this day, women across Rochester trek to Mt. Hope Cemetery, placing their I Voted stickers on her grave, paying homage and thanking Anthony for her hard work and service. February 7th, the organization celebrates Anthony’s birthday “in the same way [she] hosted her birthday celebrations during her lifetime; this will be an opportunity to encourage one another in the pursuit of equality and give in support of the mission.” Explore the “Tracks of Change” laid by Susan B. Anthony that guide us to a stronger, more just community,” as the organization says. What an incredible historical resource we have right in the city. For more information, visit susanb.org.
Upstairs in Anthony’s office, when the docent showed us Anthony’s iconic alligator purse and recollected the children’s rhyme of Miss Lulu (I remember Miss Lucy or even Miss Suzie, which was fun, because my own name was in a song not made up by me) and her baby, Tiny Tim, who she “put in the bathtub to see if he could

PAW’S CORNER By Sam Mazzotta
How to Give Your Pet a Healthy, Happy New Year
Puzzle Answers This Week
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: This week, many Americans are celebrating their newest gift to the family: a cute puppy or kitten, duck or chicken, or pocket pets like hamsters and guinea pigs. It’s also a time to form new resolutions in anticipation of the New Year. I hope that new pet owners’ first resolution will be to establish a relationship with a veterinarian with expertise in their specific pet. Some pets need to start or continue a vaccination schedule so they grow up healthy -- puppies are at risk of contracting parvovirus, for example, so bolstering their immune system is very important. Your vet can also provide advice and tips for caring for pets. Guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits communicate happiness or distress in unique ways that a new owner may not be familiar with. Puppies are wiggly and energetic. Kittens are curious and fearless. Vets can help new owners navigate these waters and provide regular checkups to help keep pets healthy. -- Dedicated Vet in Boston DEAR DEDICATED: Thank you for sending this! Establishing a care routine with a veterinarian is so important. It should sit at the top of owners’ to-do lists, along with providing comfortable warm bedding, a clean and safe environment, and especially for puppies, a daily training routine. Mark your calendar with key dates, including checkups with the vet, appointments with a trainer and regular resupply of food, litter, bedding and everything else your new pet needs.

Holiday Good Samaritans Save the Day I wish to thank 3 VERY kind people when our car died at Wegmans Holt Rd parking lot Sat., 12/30 at 10:30AM. I foolishly left my phone at home with my AAA contact info. A Gretchen’s Hallmark clerk let me use her phone to call my sister who wasn’t home. A Wegmans customer service person was very eager to help IF I couldn’t find a cable jump from another car in the lot. While I was in Wegmans, a man saw my husband with the hood up and offered a jump (he refused payment). The car started immediately and these 2 panic stricken seniors were SO relieved at the ‘kindness of strangers.’ Blessings to all of you and may I be so lucky to “pay this kindness forward!”

The Coffee Press - 12/20/23 @ 9:10AM I wanted to say thank you to a kind stranger who assisted me at The Coffee Press on 12/20/2023 at around 9:10-9:25AM. I was at The Coffee Press where they had frosted Christmas cookies displayed. I grabbed one and when I went to pay for it, I was told that it was Cash Only. As I was about to exit The Coffee Press a young man who was another customer stopped me and handed me a cookie and wished me a Merry Christmas. What this individual did not know at that moment was that I was trying to buy the cookie for my mom, who is in the final stages of dementia. Those frosted cookies are one of the few things that she enjoys and that’s why I wanted to purchase one to bring to her. She enjoyed them immensely. Unfortunately in my rush, I do not feel that I thanked this kind stranger enough and hope to return the favor and hope someone can help me. The person was in their 20s, dark-haired and accompanied by a couple of friends. Thanks! AP.
Get Off Your Cell Phone While shopping at our local big box store I ran into a mini traffic (shopping cart) jam. Four people trying to get down an isle at the same time. We were all patiently waiting for a lady to move over then realized she was on her cell phone, oblivious to others. Finally, one squeezed past her and had the audacity to touch carts going through. The look she gave him was ridiculous! I honestly believe if she said anything to him he would’ve grabbed her phone and thrown it across the store. If you’re on your phone, move out of the way. Plus nobody wants to listen to your conversations! New Medical Building Needs Improvements The cavernous, centralized out-of-town medical building lacks aged/disabled community information. Barrier free, and medical bus transport parking information needs to become disseminated. Hours, phone numbers, and floor locations of these various, now centralized medical offices need to become publicly well-advertised. While centralized services may be useful in urban areas, rural villages' smaller, convenient, local offices are at an unfortunate loss, especially with this region's tricky weather. Telephone calls to one's primary provider receptionists are often on hold for one half hour to make an appointment, which is much too long. These improvements could be implemented without great cost to corporate and make this behemoth more responsive to this aged, agrarian community's medical needs.

Plants need sunlight to thrive and grow, but some need less sunlight than others. People who find their landscapes are less supportive to sun-loving plants can choose from a variety of shade-tolerant plants, shrubs and trees. Shade tolerance refers to a plant’s ability to withstand low levels of light. Certain plants have adapted this feature to survive in the wild. Plants that grow at the base of forest floors, for example, will get less sunlight than others outside of the tree canopy. Such adaptations enable a wide variety of foliage to grow even though they are not exposed to much sunlight. While sun-loving plants often have broad leaves and expend significant energy to capture sunlight for photosynthesis, shade-tolerant plants expend less energy and tend to be more efficient consumers of soil nutrients and sunlight. Penn State Extension’s Plant and Pests division says the amount of shade a plant is growing under will directly affect the density of the foliage and the plant’s flowering and fruiting characteristics. Blending shade-tolerant plants into the landscape can be an effective use of space. Before choosing plants for an existing landscape, it’s important to assess the level of shade or sun the plants will receive. Once homeowners understand which type of shade they are dealing with, they can then visit plant nurseries and select their plants. Most greenery comes with care instructions that include recommendations regarding the amount of shade/sunlight the plant will need to do well. If further assistance is needed, a knowledgeable employee can make suggestions based on landscape needs. Shade-tolerant plants can make welcome additions to the landscape, offering greenery and color in the darker areas of a property. Page 21

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE REPLACING WINDOWS Proper installation is key to longevity. Replacement windows are only as good as their installation in many cases. Poor installation and orders of standard rather than custom sized windows could result in poor fitting and seals.

QUALITIES TO LOOK FOR IN A POST-RETIREMENT JOB Flexibility: Retirees may be looking to contribute to their communities or simply earn a little spending money, but they will likely still want the freedom to travel or spend time with their families whenever they choose. So flexibility is something to look for in a postretirement job. This is what makes consultant work so attractive to retirees. In-person hours may not be required of consultants, who can then offer their input while visiting their grandchildren or traveling the world.

Adults who rent their first homes upon relocating can remove some of the pressure to find the perfect home, knowing full well their first home in their new community will be temporary. If possible, rent in a location that makes it easy to immerse yourself in your new community, which should make the adjustment easier. In addition, place items that are unnecessary for day-to-day life in storage. Having some of your possessions already packed should make your next move less stressful.
Excellent benefits including health and dental, paid holidays and sick time, NYS retirement membership, school calendar. Visit website at www.pittsfordschools.org to apply. Click on: Human Resources/Job Opportunities/External Postings to apply.
