Is it possible to teach an old dog new tricks???? Sit Mikie, sit!! Hmmmm... doesn’t seem to work too well. I am trying to teach myself patience, especially when it comes to exercising. You see exercising is dull, boring, and unfortunately good for you. Whether, I am plodding along on the treadmill or pushing some weights, it is about as exciting as watching grass grow and without distraction your only entertainment is the unjoyful sound of your heart thumping and joints creaking. So... traditionally, once or twice every year, I hop on the treadmill and decide to whip myself into shape. Boring... let's try faster. My workouts are only 45 minutes, let’s go longer and faster. And I shouldn’t just do a cardio workout, let’s try some weights and heck why not some flexibility. So in a pretty short time, I am working out for more than 90 minutes. I also have had an irrational motto... when tired and my butt is really dragging... why, crank up the speed. I guess my theory is, if you are running with all you got to not go flying off the treadmill, you’re just too busy and scared to feel tired. Unfortunately, a strategy that might have worked in my much younger years has for some time now just caused persistent aches and pains and finally for me to say “to heck with this foolishness” and promptly turn to my more naturally lazy ways. So where I am at now is this, at nearly

6-foot and running about 167 pounds, I have a 34” waist that 20 years ago would have been 32”. I estimate that I have at least 10 and possibly 15 pounds that was once muscle or bone... and now isn’t!! With a goal of reaching a 32” waist I know two things. One... I hate dieting, even exercising is better. And two, exercise is a long slow way to work off weight (dieting is much faster) and you need very good endurance to put in the many miles needed for exercise to show significant results. “So, Mikie, are you just dreaming or do you have a plan?” “Of course, Mikie has a plan!! Silly boy!!” Rule one is I must repeat a program three times before I can increase either speed or duration. Rule two, should I experience more than mild stiffness the following day I must go back one level. Rule three, is a summary... Mikie... “You must be patient!!” Rule 4 is “If I see no progress in my workout for two consecutive weeks, I am taking a sledgehammer to every piece of exercise equipment that we own!!” 0002

Sussex Middle is one of many schools around which takes part in the annual Terry Fox School Challenge during the fall months. The SMS Terry Fox Spirit committee was made up of over 50 grade 6, 7 and 8, making it our biggest committee ever. The Team’s goals were to promote the campaign theme: “Be Like Terry,” and to raise money for the Terry Fox Foundation. On November 3rd, student leaders presented Gwen SmithWalsh with a cheque of $3,717 for the TFF. Our 2016 fundraising campaign consisted of: two school spirit days, an apple sale, one grocery packing day at Sobeys, $1 hearts sold at lunch for the SMS Wall of Hope, bath bombs were made and sold by Kathleen Vail, Julia Campbell, Sarah Murray, Christine Campbell and Amy McMillan; also Harmonee Baines added to our funds by selling key chains

she made, and 30 SMS students collected $1,500 with the Terry Fox Pledge Sheets. Lily Alexander and Lauren Lockart were the top fundraisers raising $302. Christine Campbell, Amy McMillan, Kathleen Vail, Julia Campbell and Sarah Murray collected $250 together. Other outstanding fundraisers were Madeline Fillmore, Julia Snider and Maddie Kean with $120, Katelyn Taber and Eve Bustin with $136 and the dynamic duo of Laura Fraser and Tia Presley added $115. One student in particular made a very special personal donation: “I was saving my money for the Quebec/Ottawa school trip, but I know I will never be able to earn that much money so I want to give the $80 I saved to the TFF” said grade 8 student Tressa Rogers.

ASK THE CHEF EGGNOG Colin Sifton here again with another answer to your question. Yes, Christmas is coming and with it are Christmas parties and get togethers. One of my servers asked about eggnog, What is it and why is it a Christmas time drink. Love the question because I didn’t have an answer and needed to find out. Eggnog is a rich, chilled, sweetened, creamy dairy-based beverage traditionally made with milk and/or cream, sugar, whipped eggs. This was then mixed with some kind of spirit, depending on what region of the world you came from. Most of us being English descent, it would have been sherry that was used. Germans mixed it with beer and South Americans used mainly rum. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, nog was "a kind of strong beer brewed in East Anglia". Alternatively, nog may stem from noggin, a Middle English term for a small, carved wooden mug used to serve alcohol. However,

the British drink was also called an Egg Flip, from the practice of "flipping" (rapidly pouring) the mixture between two pitchers to mix it. This drink made it’s way across the Atlantic in the 18th century and started in Maryland. Since brandy, sherry and wine was so heavily taxed, Pilgrims used rum, as it was easier to get and that is why today, most eggnog served in this part of the world is flavoured with rum. So how can you make your own eggnog? Here is a simple recipe or you can research your own. From American Thanksgiving to the end of Christmas, commercial eggnog is produced and sold, but the rest of the year it is hard to find. For this recipe, you will need: 4 cups of milk; 5 whole cloves; 2 1/2 tsp vanilla; 1 tsp of ground cinnamon; 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg; 12 egg yolks; 1.5 cups sugar; 2.5 cups rum; 4 cups cream (35%). Add milk, cloves, vanilla and cinnamon. Place

in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Combine egg yolks and sugar. Whisk together until sugar dissolves. Whisk hot milk mixture from step one into egg mixture. Put all back into saucepan and bring it back to a simmer, stir constantly for three minutes. Strain and set to cool. Once it has cooled stir in rum, cream and nutmeg and cool over night. Or you can buy a carton from the grocery store, add rum, shake and garnish with cinnamon and nutmeg. Your choice but I think you will see a big difference. 0040

APPLE PIE FUNDRAISER UPDATE On October 28 & 29 the community of the Millstream area came together at the Berwick Hall and made just over 800 10” apple pies. This was the 13th year for this fundraiser for the hall, but more of a social for the community. We would like to thank everyone who purchased pies and who came out to help build the pies on Friday and Saturday. A special thank you to the ‘Farm Fresh’ 4H group for lending a hand. Many hands make light work.

The members of the council would also like to give many thanks and appreciation to everyone who helped with the Roast Pork Supper on November 6. We apologize to those who had to be turned away at the door, and very grateful to those who stood in line, patiently waiting while the food was cooking. There was a fabulous turnout and the food ran out early. We thank you all for supporting our fundraisers. It is you who make them a success. 4336

SELF ESTEEM HAPPINESS IS LETTING GO Happiness is a choice. I have had people roll their eyes at me when I say that (maybe your eyes are rolling as you read this) but I know it to be true! Much of our unhappiness comes from holding on to the past. The truth is we have all been hurt at one time or another. Trust has been broken, our hearts have been shattered and perhaps, we have been treated badly. While experiencing pain is normal under these circumstances, we tend to allow the pain to linger on for way too long. We relive our pain over and over, each and every day. We get trapped in a vicious cycle of anger and hurt. It strains our relationships, possibly ruining them altogether. It distracts us from doing our work properly. We all end up very unhappy. Letting go can change your life. Letting go is letting happiness in. Holding on is like believing there is only a past. Letting go and moving on is knowing in your

heart that there is a brighter future. So, how do we let go and move on? First, we must accept the truth and be thankful. We are who we are today because of our past. Become thankful for the experiences that have made you cry, laugh and scream. These experiences have helped you learn and grow. Then focus only on what can be changed. Not everything in life is meant to be modified or perfectly understood. Learn what you can and can not change. Make peace with it. If you can not change something, change the way you think about it. Distance yourself for a while. Sometimes, while doing a jigsaw puzzle it helps to step away. You may have spent hours trying to fit a certain piece. Often, when we walk away and come back later with fresh eyes, we find exactly where that piece fits. Life can be like a puzzle. Returning to where you started is entirely different than never leaving.

Claim ownership of your own life. You are in full control of your life, even if it does not feel like it at times. You are responsible for how you interpret life and how you react to it. Focus on today. Decide right this moment that the negative experiences in your past will not predict your future. It is you who knows something about justice and injustice, abuse and respect, suffering and healing. You possess the clarity; courage and compassion that you will need to live the life you want to live. You have the choice. You can let go. You can move on. You can choose happiness! 0027

FAMILY MATTERS PARENTAL LISTENING Listening - it's not as easy as it sounds. Listening to your children improves your bond with them, teaches respect, boosts their self-esteem, encourages them to listen to you and builds their problem solving skills. Further, when we as parents use our listening skills we can gather information about what's going on in our children's lives and how they want to be raised. The Basics; listening requires understanding a few basic principles. These principles are critical for our children to feel like they are heard. Listen Without Speaking. Listen to your children when they want to talk. Be prepared for all kinds of feelings and thoughts and show your interest by saying such things as, ‘Tell me more about ...’, ‘Really’ and ‘Go on ...’. Listen Hard. Listen to how your kids are speaking as it can reveal a lot about how they experience their world. Let them share the way they know how, try not to

rush them and when they are done help them articulate what was hard for them to say. Listen Actively. When you are active listening there is no judgment or evaluation of what your kiddo is saying. To let your child know you’re listening and make sure you’ve really understood, repeat back what your child has said and make lots of eye contact. Tips. Many things can interfere with effective and empathetic listening. The good thing is we can plan for many of them by being prepared. Body Language. Focus on your children’s body language and other forms of nonverbal communication. As parents we can get preoccupied by all that we have to do and this helps us stay focused on our children. Create a Special Time and Place. Make it a routine and daily habit to listen to your child's day. This will require a time and place free of distractions.

Silence is Ok. It is ok to not know how to respond when your children share openly with you. Being honest about not knowing what to say may teach your children more than simply making up a response. Don’t Be Pushy. We can push our children for more than they may want to share and/or we want to problem solve for them. Understand that often your children want someone to merely listen to them and just want to vent. Like any other skill, you get better with practice, so this week take more time to listen and enjoy the parenting journey. 0006

DOLLARS & SENSE THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG; THE QUESTION OF MONEY STRESS My colleagues and I were recently working on our quarterly newsletter, and we got into a conversation on the impact of stress on money. With the holidays approaching it begged the question which came first, the stress or the money problem? We all know that money can be a big stressor; it can affect the individual, their family members and relationships. It can move from simple worry to anxiety. But yet, life stresses can cause you to spend more to try to alleviate what is happening (even though that alleviation is temporary). Signs of stress with money: You are avoiding opening your bills and statements; Your emotion is high when thinking or talking about money; You are constantly thinking about the money situation; You are avoiding social situations due to lack of money or stress about money. On top of your financial situation, the holiday season adds to the stress you are

experiencing. There are constructive and destructive ways to handle the holidays. A lot of stress and anxiety comes from the worry of things that we cannot control and that may never happen. It can make it easier to stay away from family functions and all the merriment. There are some ways to manoeuver through this season and limit the financial stress you may feel. One way is to talk about the situation; spending money during the holidays is not for everyone, come up with alternative ways of getting together with friends and family that will limit cost. When it comes to gifts, you can always draw names or set limits on what you are willing to spend, no one would want you to go into debt in order to participate. Another way to approach the gift giving is to give something that you have made or treasure. In the end it will be more important for your loved ones to spend quality time with you. The best way to deal with money stress

( 506) 433-6100 60 Maple Ave #2, Sussex, NB

is to look at your full financial situation, start by tracking what you are spending so that you feel more in control and are better aware, which makes for less unknowns. Start to map out your budget and determine what your debt situation is (is it really as scary as you think?). Talking to someone about what you are facing is a huge step to relieving money stress and credit counselling is a good place to start. Remember the more you plan and budget, the less money stress you will have (and hop ef u l ly the more money you will have). 0005

MORE THAN FITNESS ARE YOU STANDING IN YOUR WAY? Is there a goal that just seems to continually elude you? It is something that is very important to you that you really want to accomplish but you just can’t seem to get there. What is standing in your way? Chances are, the one thing that is standing in the way of your achievement is YOU! Without even realizing it, many of us get in the way of our own goals by setting ourselves up to fail. We do this through the negative self-talk that we have buried inside of our hearts and heads. Think about the image of that little devil sitting on your shoulder. Sometimes, without even realizing it, we allow his negative talk to sink into our sub-conscious minds and get in the way of the things that we want. There is something we would love to accomplish – maybe it is a weight loss goal, or the desire to live a more active life, or the desire to compete in an event or participate in a challenge. But before

we even begin to take on the challenge, we talk ourselves out of it. Think for a minute of what this internal dialogue is for you. “I would love to get more active this year BUT, I am too [fill in the blank] (tired, old, busy, over weight...). Sound familiar? We all have our own reason or reasons that follow the “but”, however, when we dig down deep, none of them are valid reasons to let ourselves be dissuaded from taking on a new challenge. The mind is the most powerful tool in the human body and in order to get ourselves ready for change, we must first begin with the right mindset. If you are considering making a lifestyle change in the New Year, take some time for honest reflection. Ask yourself what has gotten in the way in the past and then figure out how you can overcome it. If you are not able to objectively look at this yourself, ask a friend or family member to help you work through it. Make a list

of the potential obstacles that might get in the way of your success and then list all the ways you can work around these obstacles to ensure that this time, you will stick to your goal. As 2016 comes to a close and we look forward to all we will accomplish in 2017, remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, so don’t let yourself get in your own way! 0044

ST. PAUL’S DOES CAN-STRUCTION Through the month of November St. Paul's United Church in Sussex did “can-struction”. At the regular services members of the congregation brought in canned goods to send to the Sussex Sharing Club. The youth group created constructions from what was donated including shaping them into the word “love” for the final service. The canned goods were delivered to the Sharing Club on Novovember 21. 4342

NOVEMBER IS RADON ACTION MONTH Radon is a dense colorless odorless tasteless gas that occurs through the natural decay of radioactive elements in the earth. It occurs most everywhere but concentrations vary widely with location. Because it is very dense it accumulates in attics & basements that are not properly ventilated. Once vented to the atmosphere it dissipates quickly. It has been present since the earth was formed and will always exist. Radon is a Class A carcinogen, which means it is known to cause cancer in humans. Because it is radioactive it has serious health risks and is the second leading contributor to lung cancer (surpassed only by cigarette smoking). It is a serious indoor air contaminant that should be dealt with accordingly. The first indication of radon was during the "Watras" Incident. Stanley J. Watras was a construction engineer at the Limerick nuclear power plant in Pottstown, Pennsylvania in the 1980's. A monitor was installed at the plant to check workers to make sure they did not accidentally accumulate an unsafe dose of radiation at work. At the end of each shift workers were decontaminated and

sent home clean. On his way into work, Mr.Watras entered the plant and set off the radiation monitor alarms. Safety personnel checked him out, but could not find the source of the radiation. Interestingly, because the plant was under construction at the time, there was no nuclear fuel at the plant, so there was no way for Mr.Watras to have been exposed to any radiation at work. Mr. Watras was not picking up the radiation at work, but rather was bringing it to work from home! A team of specialists was sent to the Watras' home to investigate. They discovered that the levels in his home were 100,000Bq/ m3. The entire family was living in an environment roughly equivalent to smoking a couple of hundred packs of cigarettes per day. The family moved out of their home temporarily until repairs could be made. After installing a radonreduction system, they were able to bring the levels down to an acceptable range and then the family was able to return. The Canadian government has set a standard of 200Bq/m3 as a safe level. The World Health Organization recommends a level of 100Bq/m3.

New building codes will require venting to the atmosphere under concrete floors in new homes to eliminate most radon. However existing homes are at risk. Testing is critical by qualified professionals because levels are affected by open windows, fans etc for accuracy. Short term testing using expensive equipment can be used as a quick guide or indication of high levels. After completing a test if high levels are present, reducing levels requires drilling holes into concrete floors and installing specialized fans to remove radon before it enters the living space and sealing up as many cracks in the floor as possible. This reduces radon and doesn't expel heated air. For more info: 214-4332, 639-4183. 4308

LIVE WELL GRATITUDE The dictionary defines “gratitude” as the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. This tells us that gratitude is a double action - it is both giving and receiving. If you were asked: “Do you want to feel better about yourself and your life and improve your mental health,” I cannot imagine many of you would say “no thanks.” Research has proven that grateful people are happier, more optimistic about life in general and have better mental health. Being grateful for things given or done out of kindness rewards both the giver and the recipient. Those who practice an “attitude of gratitude” in their lives, feel good giving and want to pass it on or “pay it forward.” Having a grateful mindset also means that one does not take things for granted, that one is able to express thanks and not feel uncomfortable doing so. Over the years, I have heard many say that they are uncomfortable receiving, that they would

rather be the giver. But here’s the thing, being uncomfortable receiving is the opposite of being a taker, and as we often hear in our recovery groups: “180 degrees from dysfunctional is still dysfunctional.” Giving and receiving need to be reciprocal actions if we are to achieve balance and experience the joy that comes from giving and the humbleness of receiving. To deny others the opportunity of giving is to deny them the opportunity of feeling good about themselves or experiencing the good feelings that come from giving. What does an “Attitude of Gratitude” look like in everyday life? It means that we are not only grateful for material blessings but also for those things we often take for granted, like the ability to see, hear and be mobile, the basic freedoms enjoyed in a free society, food and shelter, healthcare, education, love of family and friends, the bed we sleep in each night, the warmth of our homes during the winter months, and so on. If you doubt this assertion, consider those living in war-torn or third world countries. Upon thinking about

The staff of Sussex Select Community Funeral Home invites you to join them at their annual Candle Of Hope Service, on Sunday, December 4 at 2:00 pm in the funeral home Chapel.

A time of mutual support and comforting memories as the holiday season nears, the service will include a candle lighting ceremony as a beautiful seasonal memorial to those we’ve lost.

This year each candle we light will signify a donation of $5 or more to support Faith’s Kitchen in memory of a loved one. While there is no obligation to participate in the Candle Lighting Campaign, if you wish to make a memorial pledge you may do so at the funeral home or by telephone at 433-2133.

other countries where war and famine are occurring, we can all be grateful that we live in a country where we can step outside our homes and not worry about bombs dropping or bullets whizzing overhead as we go about our daily lives. Even when bad things happen, I believe it helps and comforts to look for those things for which we can be grateful, such as good memories, a helpful hand during a crisis, new doors or avenues that become available to us when others are closed. Don’t you think an “Attitude of Gratitude” is worth seeking? 0008

MUSINGS WE SECRETLY LOVE WINTER As we move from November into December the upcoming arrival of winter can no longer be ignored. There have been a few bits of snow. The mornings can be quite “crisp”. Scraping the car windshield is becoming the norm. One forecaster predicts a snowier winter than normal, another says it will be warmer with more rain and mixed precipitation, and yet another may say after a mild start we will be up to our necks in snow come January. They can’t all be right! But . . . just our fascination following all of these long-range predictions is a really big hint at what I think is a secret love of a tough winter! You do not see the same interest in the long-range predictions for our summers. It is strictly a winter obsession. We all love to tell stories of the tough winters we have endured. The time the power was out for days. The time we

needed a bulldozer to plow the snow because it was so deep. How we survived the ice storm of 1998 (Note: I especially remember being able to skate for miles on top of the snow/ice fields!). I think it is something to do with being a Maritimer. The urbandictionary.com defines maritimer as “A real Canadian . . . the original and best part of Canada, where people are down to earth, take the time to talk with you and ask how you are doing, and are known for being friendly.” We also are true DIY types, self-sufficient to a fault, but always willing to lend a hand to a friend or neighbour. Winter gives us the perfect opportunity for all that, whether it is fixing an ailing snowblower, throwing snow up an 8-foot snowbank with a shovel or plowing out a neighbour. PLUS, it is the perfect time to enjoy a great book in front of a warm fire without feeling guilty about all the things you should be doing around the yard and house. And one more thing, comfort food! Your comfort food of choice

may be hot chocolate, hot oatmeal, lasagna or french toast, but there are certain foods that just fit cold winter weather. Don’t just take my word for it that we secretly love our winters. Far wiser heads than mine have travelled the same thought path: "Many human beings say that they enjoy the winter, but what they really enjoy is feeling proof against it." ~ Richard Adams "The hard soil and four months of snow make the inhabitants of the northern temperate zone wiser and abler than his fellow who enjoys the fixed smile of the tropics." ~ Ralph Wa l d o Emerson. 0001
