There is something so incredibly special about the bond between father and daughter. From the moment Kevin and I started talking about having a family, I have wanted a little girl for him to snuggle and cuddle and love. As long as the baby is healthy, I will be content, of course, but I will admit that there is a certain part of me that wants to see that bond between father and daughter grow. Looking back, I don't really know when I became a daddy's girl. One of my earliest memories is of getting upset that mommy wasn't home to doctor my skinned knee. I was concerned that Dad wouldn't know how to “fix it” properly. Obviously, he managed just fine, as he did with all other tasks that I was convinced Mom needed to perform. As a young child, I felt that bath time and bedtime were activities to be shared with Mom - not Dad. He just didn't make bedtime snack the same way; he also didn't know all the right songs to sing. As I got older, Mom continued to be one

of my best friends. She was my confidant and teacher and in many ways, Dad was relegated to second string. Maybe it was because he worked long hours outside the home whereas Mom worked from the home until all of us kids were older. Maybe it was because even when he was at home, Dad was busy with activities that didn't interest me, such as repairing the car or puttering around in his workshop downstairs. That's not to say I didn't love Dad and I was always happy when he was home to play with me, I was simply a mama's girl for many of my formative years and it wasn't until I was older that I realized just what an amazing man my father was. The change happened so gradually, I can't pinpoint the moment when Dad became more friend than father figure. Whether helping me with homework, or encouraging me to reach my potential, my relationship with Dad became one of shared music, road trips, quiet moments spent watching TV, and conversations about life and love. We definitely bonded over our love of Christmas and one of my fondest memories is a shopping trip when I was in my early twenties. We spent the entire day together, wandering through the various stores, looking at Christmas ornaments and just enjoying the others' company. I don't remember much conversation, the day was about the time spent together rather than anything else. Now, I am looking forward to teaching my child some of the lessons I learned at Dad's knee, whether they be as simple as making sure to overlap the lego blocks to minimize the number of cracks in a wall, or as serious as respecting yourself above all others, regardless of what your peers believe of your ideals. And I am certainly hoping to see those moments between Kevin and baby Crealock. I know he will be as amazing a father as Dad was. 0001

TENDiNG TO mY PATcH BAMBI-PROOF YOUR GARDEN Frustrated because the deer are devouring your landscape and vegetable gardens? The sight of a deer visiting your yard can ignite dread in even the most seasoned gardener. In many areas our homes and gardens are now infringing on what was once the habitat for these creatures. How do we prevent deer from feasting in your garden? Physical barriers - Physical barriers are perhaps the most effective method you can use to keep deer at bay. These include fences and covers, such as plastic netting, chicken wire, or floating row covers that you place over plants so deer can’t reach them. Did You Know: Some species of deer can jump 8 – 12 feet? In some areas electric fencing might be considered with the aid of solar powered devices. Scare tactics - Many options exist to frighten deer, but realize that these critters are adaptable. They’ll learn quickly whether a repetitive noise poses a true threat. Motion-triggered devices
that squirt water, turn on a radio, or emit an irritating high frequency sound may work a bit better. A barking dog is a good deer deterrent, but only if it has free range in the yard. Repellents - These products come in many forms. Most repellents offer protection in some cases, but not in others. Most gardeners get the best results through consistent applications and by rotating repellents. Use caution when applying repellents to vegetables and herbs that you’ll eat. You don’t want to make your harvest inedible - so follow label instructions. Consider being proactive and using repellents to treat young crops before they’ve begun bearing a harvest. Crop & Plant Selection - Since deer have sensitive noses they tend not to like pungent odors, fuzzy leaves or prickly/ thorny stems. Deer are naturally repulsed by things with acrid odors and flavors. Do some research on the types of crops that deer prefer and cut down on the
UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!
number of these you plant. There are many trees/shrubs, herbs and annuals/ perennials lists that deer usually leave alone and are available online and most garden centers. Nothing’s foolproof, but choosing plants carefully can help. As with many aspects of gardening, the best teacher is experience. The whole point of a garden is to enjoy it. Try using several forms of control. This usually works better than one alone. Timing is everything. Do not give up be content with trying to find a suitable means of learning to live with the deer and keeping your gardens and landscape intact. 0034

wEll RESTED THINGS HAVE CHANGED IN THE CPAP WORLD… So you’ve been told that you snore or you stop breathing in your sleep. You feel tired during the day. You’ve finally mentioned it to your doctor and they referred you for a sleep test. You had your sleep test, it was easier than you thought. The results came back and you know you have sleep apnea. Your doctor wants you to do a trial on a CPAP machine because it will be beneficial to your heart health and you won’t be so tired during the day. These thoughts immediately run through your head: But I can’t wear a mask at night! I’m claustrophobic! How am I supposed to sleep with one of those things? I’ve tried it before and just couldn’t wear it. I breathe through my mouth, I can’t wear a mask. Those machines are so noisy! These are all very valid and common concerns. I hear them from almost every client. By far, the most important and challenging aspect of CPAP treatment is the mask. In recent years these have
8
The Sussex Herald
become much smaller, more comfortable and user friendly. When I started working with CPAP machines, the masks were big bulky things that were so uncomfortable, only the most severe apnea sufferers could tolerate it. Now there are dozens of choices and the client must be able to try many to find the right fit. They range from nasal pillow systems that just rest against the nostrils to deliver the air pressure, to small nose masks that just cover the nose, to masks that cover the nose and mouth for those whose mouths come open at night. The materials are now hypoallergenic, very soft silicone construction, with minimal strap. This is a consumer driven field and consumers demand a mask that will help them sleep, not keep them awake with discomfort. Machines are now quieter than ever. If you have an old machine at home that grinds and whirls while in use, you’d be shocked to hear the almost silent
units that you can get now. I have had many spouses report that the new quiet machines are much better than even the quietest snoring. Even if your old machine doesn’t have a lot of “miles” on it, the old technology made for a noisy, uncomfortable machine. Your insurance more than likely covers you for a new machine if it is five years old or more and for a new mask a couple of times a year. Having the best mask for your face and quietest, appropriately set machine are two of the biggest factor in having a successful CPAP experience. 0038

The Sussex Herald
ExERciSE FOR HEAlTH DO YOU LOVE YOUR BODY? That's right I asked the question and you should think about the answer. As women we are always made to think there is something that we need to fix or change about our bodies. Television, magazines and the expectations of society in general can place a lot of stress on how we view ourselves. You know what? You only get one body and you need to learn to love it and nurture it the best you can with good food and adequate exercise. Appreciate all your body does for you, it has gotten you through a lot of milestones in life. Our bodies take us from birth until possibly 90 to 100 years down the road, good food is essential and exercise is just as important. Longevity is all around us nutrition and medicine have played a big part in people living longer healthier lives but activity and exercise have also contributed. Physical fitness has become a very important part of modern day life,
no longer does retirement put us in a rocking chair waiting for the rest of our lives to pass by. Seniors have taken to the gyms, hiking and biking trails, pool, golf courses or maybe a dance class. Physically exercise can decrease pain, make people stronger and mentally add to daily enjoyment by sharing a common interest with so many others. Physical activity gives the older generation common ground with the younger generation, there's nothing like hopping on your bike to ride a trail with your child or grandchild. Remember you are setting a wonderful example of healthy living when younger people see you taking such good care of yourself. If you were given a second chance with the same body I bet you would do things differently but it is never too late to make positive changes, start slow build up your strength and stamina gradually. Revisit some of the things you did in your younger days, go outside the fresh
air and scenery can be very energizing, if you are hesitant to go alone ask a friend to go along with you or visit your local gym, there are always people there who would love to have someone for company. Exercise can help you feel healthier even in times of difficulty or illness, the time it takes to do a workout can be a mental diversion from whatever it is you are dealing with, a bit of a time out just for you! It's never too late! 0046

Mopsey:
Is a 4 1/2 year old short-haired Calico female. She’s tall and very solid, weighing in at 12 lbs. Fussy about her appearance (she insisted on applying lipstick for the photo shoot), she keeps herself in pristine condition. Although very affectionate with humans and demanding to be petted, she definitely needs to find a home where she is the only feline resident. However, she is quite accepting of dogs. Mopsey has been spayed, vaccinated and all parasites taken care of. Paws & Whiskers Sanctuary Inc. Email: paws@bellaliant.net www.pawssussex.ca PO Box 4816 Sussex, NB E4E 5L1 Paws and Whiskers Sanctuary Inc. is a registered non-profit charitable organization operated solely by volunteers.

GRADUATES - ARE THEY READY? What do you want to be when you grow up? Students have been asked this question since the day they set foot in the classroom. By grade one their answers range from firefighter to rock star, fairy princess to hairdresser. As they entered middle school, the answers changed to hockey player, lawyer and doctor.
But the arrival of graduation marks the time for serious answers. Oddly enough, secondary school marks the height of teenage indecisiveness. Within the four years that have led to the threshold of adult life, graduating students struggle to find their way. They are constantly shifting back and

Caps off to you! Take a chef for example: when starting to prepare a dish, he will have all of the ingredients laid out and the recipe ready, every detail about the food
will be going through his mind. He turns on the stove, sets the pot on the burner and begins adding and mixing the ingredients. When the time
for taste-testing arrives, the chef realizes that one of the ingredients does not fit in with what he wanted to make. What does he do? He swaps it for something else that he hopes will get him what he wants; the same can be said about moving on to university. This is the beauty of being a graduate, you are free to make all of the choices and decisions you want. If you make a mistake, or take a path that leads to nowhere, you can always start again, you don’t have to get it right the first time. Just like the chef who discovered an ingredient which didn’t work, your graduate will

SElF ESTEEm BE HAPPIER FOR IT Life is already hard enough. We do not need to make it harder, yet many of us do. Each of us is responsible for our own happiness. On the flip side, we are also responsible for our unhappiness. Many of us, unintentionally, do things that cause us feelings of frustration, anger and defeat which in turn lowers our self
22
esteem. What sort of things? For starters, we take things personally. For example if we see someone we know in a store and we say “hey” and they say “hi” and leave or ignore our greeting altogether, many of us ask ourselves, “What did I do? Are they upset with me?” For the majority of the time, I will
guarantee it has nothing to do with you. They are preoccupied, running late, etc. We must stop taking things so personally and be happier for it. Also, in many situations, we imagine the worst that can happen without even considering the best that can happen. This is not a healthy response. Negativity only breeds more negativity. Let go of the worse case scenarios and be happier for it. Another thing that hinders our happiness is that we often have unrealistic, uncommunicated expectations. People are not mind readers. Many of us suffer in silence because others do not say or act the way we imagined they would. We must communicate openly and honestly and be happier for it. As well, none of us should ever compare ourselves to another. It is an unfair comparison. Our experiences, circumstances, and upbringing all made us into the person we are. No two are alike. The moment we begin the comparison, we begin to lose our own self worth. Stop comparing and be happier for it. Too often, we allow others to steal from us. I’m not saying that they’ve broken into your home and stolen your most valuable possessions. Selfish, negative people steal your time, your sense of self and your joy. Guard your time. Spend it wisely with people that encourage you and want to see you do well. It will amaze you how much easier your life will be and you will be happier for it. Last but not least, let go. We complicate our lives when we refuse to let go of all the negativity (our losses, sadness, defeats, frustrations, etc.). The truth is life is full of negativity, but real happiness would not be possible without it. It is not easy, but by letting go of negativity, you can finally blossom and grow into the person you were created to be and be happier for it. 0027

with a bang. Be in place before the 10:00am parade gets underway along the flag lined route. Gather by the wharf for the Belleisle Middle School’s singing of “O Canada’ and the recognition of the Norton Legion’s oldest Veterans, Roy Pope and Ken Newell, as Parade Marshals, and a community cake cutting. Running concurrently is “The Schmozzle”, a 5km run through woods, streams from Springfield (Gillis of Belleisle Winery) to the Hatfield Point Wharf. Cheer on the runners as they climb out of the Bay onto the wharf shortly after noon. Throughout the day are games, bike rodeo, scavenger hunt for kids and silent auction, vendors, yard sale, Victorian tea for the adults. History buffs will love the Cemetery tours mid-afternoon, followed by the fiercely competitive Cake Auction. Settle in for a fish and chips dinner and square dance on the green. Music on the wharf is always a key feature of the day from 1:00pm on, with Jen and the Macs highlighting the evening from 7:00pm as people gather for the fireworks. For Canada’s 150th, count on something spectacular when the show begins at dark. 4569

TAlES FROm THE cAmERA BAG TORRES DEL PAINE With my eyes closed I inhaled deeply the air that was fresher and cleaner than anything I have breathed. I let the strong, cool, winds wash over me and let my clothes ripple like a sail. I was standing on the shores of the Magellan Strait, incredulous to be here where famous explorers once set sail to find a way around the bottom of the world. Leaving Puerto Natales at 4:00am, driving the black gravel backroads of Patagonia heading for Torres del Paine National Park was an adventure. Driving 80kmph was not Dave’s thing and Libby was constantly reminding me of her displeasure with constant swats across the back of my head. This narrow, roller coaster of a road is sometimes so high you see the vultures flying below you and of course there are no guard rails. These death runs were all part of the adventure, but more so because I wanted the quintessential shot of the Torres del Paine lit in a fiery, red, sunrise glow. These mountains rise up quickly and
sharply like spears thrown upward from the underworld, in front of them is a wonderful lake and behind us a smaller mountain range. When the sun ascends behind us it peeks over the mountains and broadcasts a light show upon the Torres del Paine rich in hues of magenta, pinks, oranges and gold. As we were here in the autumn, the air was cooler and heavier and these mountains make their own weather. We did this perilous trip four times to no avail. Mother nature was not giving this up. The base of the mountain painted in magenta, pinks and yellows was the best we could do, as these mountains wore their clouds like Patagonia togues. We offered up coffee and pastries too the gods as we picnicked on the nearby lake, but they would have none of it. The area surrounding Torres Del Paine was as unique as the mountains. Large expanses of land were populated by the Patagonian cypress, an imposing, iconic fire dependant tree that is endemic to the
Chile Argentina area. Usually the first tree to populate the poor volcanic soils, it grows quickly after a fire and may almost be dormant for 5-7 years if fires are suppressed to quickly. These “Redwoods of the south” are often very tall but here in the south there windswept forms looked more like arthritic fingers clawing out of the ground. I was lucky to find an artist who made wool hangings from the local Guanaco (Llama like animal) and incorporated a piece of this Patagonian Cypress. Shoot - Print Share.
