The Sussex Herald

Is it just me or is there a strange dichotomy between the clothing, toys, and accessories available to boys versus girls? I have often struggled to find an appropriate gift for my nephews whereas shopping for my nieces is a breeze. I have frequently lamented to my sister that her boys are hard to buy for - mostly because I don’t want to buy them nerf guns or dinky cars for every occasion. I like educational, fun, imaginative toys and once they outgrew Playmobil, my options became much more limited if I didn’t want to break the bank (and with ten nieces and nephews to shop for, unfortunately that extremely cool large Lego set simply isn’t on the shopping list). Gift purchases for the girls are easier as there are several craft options marketed specifically for girls in addition to the traditional Barbie, stuffed animal or doll. There is even pink and purple Lego available, although I’m not sure why it’s not included with the other colours and is sold separately.

Walking through the baby aisle at the store for the first time as a parent rather than an aunt was eye opening.

Everything girl was light, bright, pink, frilly and oh-so-pretty. The boys’ side of the aisle was made up of darker, primary colours, and heavily featured cars and trucks and things that gonothing light, airy or frilly to be seen.

Perhaps it is because little girls are so much fun to dress up? From the moment Kevin and I revealed that we were having a girl, the ladies in our family have been talking about tutus

and tiaras, glitter and ribbons. We have had many a discussion about when to get her ears pierced, whether or not she’ll have curls to play with and style, and how often can we play dress up. To wit - we have agreed that she will get her ears pierced if and when she wants, and is old enough to properly care for them. As far as playing dress up goes, Kevin keeps reminding me she is not a little doll, but Emma has been given several sweet dresses and outfits and I feel guilty not having her wear each gift at least once for a photo-op. Thanks to everyone for their generosity! I believe there has even been talk about a “spaday” for the Crealock cousins once Emma is old enough to have her nails painted. I don’t recall my sister and I ever discussing hair-styling or playing dress-up for her boys, regardless of how many little outfits we have cooed over.

I feel so lucky to have my little girl; I know that she can do anything and be anyone that she chooses, whether a doctor, a writer, a house-wife or a computer tech. I just wish that the toys and accessories available to her were less pink. 0003

INVICTUS GAMES

INVICTUS GAMES ATHLETE Jason Israel, an infantry soldier with the Canadian Army grew up in Saint John. He is currently stationed at CFB Gagetown and has served for 15 years, including three tours in Afghanistan.

He was one of 550 competitors from 17 nations competing at the Invictus Games in Toronto, September 23 - 30.

The Invictus Games were established in 2014 by Prince Harry. It is the only international adaptive sporting event for wounded, ill and injured active duty and veteran service members. The Games use the power of adaptive sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation and generate a wider understanding and respect for armed forces around the world.

$4.00

Gateway Mall, Sussex, NB

The word "Invictus" is Latin for unconquered and is the title of a poem

by William Ernest Henley. The Games derives its motto from the final two lines of the poem: "I AM the master of my fate, I AM the captain of my soul" and reflects the unconquerable spirit of the wounded warriors competing.

Jason Israel competed in the 100m, 200m, 400m, 1500m and 4 x 100m mixed relay. Jason placed 6th in the 1500m final with a time of 4.50.45. Those cheering him on included his wife, Amanda and children Jakob and Grace.

Congratulations, Jason. New Brunswick is very proud of you and the entire Team Canada. 4717

IN THE GARDEN LAST COLUMN FOR THE YEAR...NOT AN END TO GARDENING THOUGH! There are a great many things left to do in the garden, though transplanting will have to be put on hold until we get some good drenching rains...my worms have just given notice that, unless working conditions improve, they will be taking strike action...

A good place to start is by picking up all fallen fruit (taking care to use gloves since wasps and kin will be lurking inside) and dead leaves and composting them. I cut back all my perennials, doing so reduces the workload in the spring and makes it much easier for division and transplanting, the seeds of some are certainly eaten by the birds, however a decent snowfall will usually bury them and the birds will be looking for well maintained feeders.

If you are a convert to ‘mulching’ it is advisable to pull the mulch away from your plantings and fill the space with some rich compost or an enhanced soil mixture, the mulch will have absorbed

much of the available nutrition and it needs to be replaced if quality growth is to appear in the spring.

Roses, still in radiant bloom will need attention later on, I cut most of mine down to about a foot high and find a strong new growth in the spring as a result; the winter winds can cause immense damage, breaking tall stems and inviting disease into the torn areas, better to have clean cuts that heal quickly.

Leaving the lawn a little higher than usual will help to prevent winter kill and a late mowing will chop up the leaves and relieve you of the job of raking.

Fall is a great time to take stock of the condition of trees and bushes, as the leaves disappear we are given a clear view of what remains and what needs to be removed; with good sharp loppers or secateurs and constantly stepping back from the planting to assess the new shape, one can take out all damaged limbs, remove any that are rubbing against

another and restore new life to them. It is particularly important to bring light and air to all fruit bearing trees and shrubs, overcrowding results in smaller fruit and generally poorer quality, canes that bore fruit on Raspberries and Blackberries should be cut back to ground level and a good layer of rich soil/compost/ manure be spread liberally around them.

Enjoy the rest that winter affords, store up the memories of a remarkable summer, blessings. 0039 Edited for space, see full article ossekeag.ca

FAMILY MATTERS TEACHING SELF-CARE TO CHILDREN Self-care skills are skills that a person needs on a daily basis to live independently.

They include eating, dressing, bathing, toileting and grooming. Teaching selfcare skills is a process that begins at birth and goes on into adulthood. Children can find these skills difficult to perform for various different reasons. Consider the following when helping your children develop their self-care skills.

Self-feeding. The best way to build independent feeding skills is to encourage your children to practice feeding themselves from infancy on. Let kids be as independent as possible during mealtimes and give them the tools they need to be successful. Consider bowls that attach to the table, child-sized utensils and small cups with handles and spouts for pouring.

Dressing and Grooming. Encourage your kids to dress and groom themselves.

Begin with older infants and toddlers by encouraging them to help pull socks on and off, pull up pants. As children get older,

encourage them to dress themselves but help with challenging steps such as zipping and buttoning as these can be tasks for them.

Hygiene, Bathing and Toileting. Look for signs of readiness for toileting. Your children can be encouraged to use the toilet by climbing on and off the toilet seat, pull clothing up and down, and hand washing.

Also, teach your kids how to brush their teeth by having their toothbrushes handy for use after lunch, dinner and snacks.

Many kiddos go through phases where they resist bathing. Keep it fun and a consistent part of your family’s schedule.

Be mindful that children have a drive to be independent and do things on their own but different skills come at various times.

As your children grow, they learn to do more tasks, however they may need help with some things. Techniques that promote self-care skill acquisition can include use of: rewards, forward chaining, backward chaining, repetition, grading, adaptations, responsibility, integration and storytelling.

SUSSEX DIAL-A-RIDE is a volunteer group providing affordable transportation to the people in the Sussex area.

We will pick up our clients within the greater Sussex area, and take them to local destinations.

Just call our dispatcher 48 hours in advance of the required service. We arrange a volunteer driver to come to your door, drive you to your destination and then return you back to your pick up location.

WHAT IS THE COST?

Self-care skills are worth the time and effort. The secret to success is to give your kiddos age-appropriate experiences and provide them with appropriate supports to help them be successful. Remember, we model self-care skills; children learn a great deal from watching us.

Encouraging children to take care of everyday self-care tasks helps them to become more independent, and frees up your time to plan other family activities.

This week celebrate occupational therapy month by focusing on self-care and enjoy the parenting journey. 0006

SMALL BUSINESSES… WITH A TOUCH OF HISTORY Throughout my grade school education I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for history, some might even call me a nerd. It was the norm to find me in the library hunched over an old war book, or one of those ‘cultures and traditions of the eighteenth century’ texts, which are filled mostly with black and white pictures of men riding horses and women over washbasins.

There was a point in time when I could regurgitate every fact there was to know about the Titanic and Martello Tower, then follow it up with roughly six books from which my information came. Most would deem this odd seeing as next to none of my being subscribes to societal ‘traditions’. Having said that, there is something to be said for exploring the past.

order to better the future, we must have a deep understanding of how society came to be.

Ever since the rise of the working class, small businesses were not only present, but also the predominant industry in the western world.

From cozy coffee shops where town gossip and travellers’ stories filled the room, to flower

boutiques where apologetic men desperately pick up “I’m sorry for whatever I did” daisies.

The hustle and bustle of the town was hinged on these small businesses and the loving people who owned and ran them. These quaint towns filled with lovely shops always made the top of the ‘things to do list’, their appeal was more then just a run to the shops, and it was one of

actually joy.

But inevitably, it was not meant to be. With the rise of the industrial revolution and the modernization of the western world, small businesses were lost in the race for selfgratification. What the consumer wants, the consumer gets; and FAST. As society grew

obsessed with mass consumption, charming restaurants were replaced with fast food establishments. Clothing stores, hardware stores and furniture boutiques warped into the “one store does it all”.

Fast-forward to 2017, and we start to see that the world has changed again. Some of the most basic jobs have been replaced by machines and tablet panels, which take away nearly all of the “good world” consumer-worker relationship.

An example of this are the digital ordering stations in one fast food store. They have looked at a position that probably should be done by person, and replaced it by a machine what was the matter with human interaction?

Couple this with a dissolving employment rate of, according to one source, 6.5% (not including those who have not registered), and we are left with some enlarging problems.

To put it quite frankly, with the job disappearance that is becoming a regular

occurrence in the province, small businesses are the saving grace. When there are no jobs and disappearing human interaction in the work place, it takes some gutsy entrepreneurs, with the drive and support, to create a start-up company.

In essence that is what small businesses are, the backbone of the community. The owner of a small business is the sort of person that one would have over for a dinner party; they are strong willed, and to get what they want and yet are still friendly and communicate effectively. It is because of small businesses that concepts such as customer service and human interaction still exist. Small businesses are there to keep the job market open and continue the economy. Throughout the course of history, we as a society have pushed out these businesses in favour of our need for mass consumption. It is time for us to change that.

Take the small business for what it is: a small

business. To me, that means that the consumer gets the personal attention that they deserve, the interaction that is missing in modern day shopping and, above all else, an overall better buying and/or consulting experience. It means that the business owner is a very hard worker in order to compete with the big box stores of the 21th century, that they will provide excellent service to keep your business, and they will know their clients by name. The small business could become the new social norm; and it should! But it is up to us to make it happen.

Pay specific attention to wheel wells and along the bottom side of doors and panels, as these are the areas where salt collects and often goes unchecked. For obvious reasons it’s advisable to watch the weather and only wash your car on days above zero degrees. Unless riding atop a block of ice is your preferred means of transit. If a window or door does become frozen, try to avoid forcing entry. Park in the sun while at work and hopefully nature will fix it for you. advice you too can prolong the life of your car and get the most value out of your investment. So let’s get started.

This brings us to the topic of gas.

I’ll admit it, running vehicles dangerously low on fuel isn’t as detrimental as it once was.

The days of a vehicle’s fuel lines freezing up are, for the most part behind us. But that being said, you never know what lies ahead, and the last thing you want to do is to be racing for the gas station in a snowstorm with frosted up window. It’s a good idea to keep a little extra fuel in the tank, just in case.

Have things like transmission fluid, power steering fluid, engine oil, brake fluid and engine oil checked. It may simply need toped off, or perhaps replaced all together.

There are some fall vehicle preparedness steps that may be beyond your capabilities but they’re certainly not beyond a well-trained, well-equipped technician. So your next set in getting ready for winter should be to your local service station.

There isn’t necessary a set out path to be taken when it come to fall car care, but there are some basics that should be addressed.

Most people have winter tires installed before the snow starts to fly. This is an opportune time to have your mechanic take a look at your steering, suspension and brakes. Honestly by removing the wheels, they’re already doing 99 percent of the work involved in this most basic of inspections.

So if its cost you’re concerned about, it should be much more to ask them to take a look around while they’re in there.

While your car is in the shop for its winter tires, or winter check over, have all the fluids inspected.

Automotive fluids have a service life, and certain driving contains may cut that life down. If a fluid becomes low or contaminated mechanic damage will ensue.

It’s best to strike while the irons hot and get these things taken care of before cold weather.

When ambient temperatures drop so does the viscosity of fluid. Essentially this means that the particular fluid will thicken and respond to movement more

often-overlooked area is your windshield washer system. Only winter washer fluid can withstand temperatures below freezing. I usually try and use up as much of my summer fluid as I can before the risk of cold weather. Start filling your tank with winter washer fluid sometime in late summer or early fall.

for preparation. Most vehicle maintenance can be done buy a simple visual inspection and a few minutes of your time. Take the initiative to ask your mechanic some questions regarding the various mechanical system of your car. I had an instructor in school that use to tell us that we should never assume that we know more about a customer’s car than they do. After all, they’re the one that drives the car every day. They know when something doesn’t seem right. Perhaps it’s a sound that wasn’t there before, or maybe the fuel mileage isn’t what it uses to be. Regardless of what seems off, the driver is going to be the first one to pick up on it. Trust your instincts and get it checked out, fall is the perfect time to address these minor issues before they beck major problems. Autumn is after all, nature’s time to prepare.

INVESTING IN YOUR FUTURE SHOULD YOU DELAY TAKING CPP? Applying for Canadian Pension Plan payments has typically been a rite of passage for 65-year-old retirees.

However, with more people working and living longer, people may be rethinking their withdrawal date.

The Government of Canada provides a lot of leeway when it comes to taking CPP. You can take it as early as 60 or as late as 70 but the timing will have an impact on your payments.

Here’s a look at how the system works.

When you take your CPP at 65, you will collect the full calculated amount.

If you take it earlier, your monthly payment is reduced by 0.6% for each month you receive it before age 65, or 7.2% per year. This adds up to a 36% loss if you take your pension at 60.

If you take CPP after age 65, your monthly amount will increase by 0.7% for each month after age 65 that you delay it, up to age 70 (that comes out to 8.4% per year). So, if you start receiving

the pension at age 70, you will receive 42% more than if you had taken it at 65.

You should consider delaying if you are working past the age of 65 and can live on that income, or if have other adequate sources of cash flow. If you don’t need it at 60, don’t take it. Those in good health might want to consider waiting, too.

The longer you delay, the higher those payments will be for the rest of your life.

Here’s how a delay in CPP would impact your monthly payments. The calculations assume that the person’s earnings each year of their working life were the yearly maximum pensionable earnings (YMPE) and that the YMPE increases each year by 2.5% and that CPP benefits increase each year by 1.5%.

A person who is aged 60 in 2017 who elects to receive the reduced CPP benefit will receive a monthly benefit of $720 per month. If that person waits until the age of 65 to receive the unreduced amount, they will receive $1,241 per month. If

Renforth Artisan CHRISTMAS MARKET SUNDAY NOV 12th 10:00am - 4:30pm

that same person waits until the age of 70 to receive CPP, their monthly benefit will be $1,994 per month – almost triple what they would have received at age 60.

Deciding when to take CPP comes to having a good understanding of your retirement cash flow, your anticipated income needs throughout your postworking years and an estimate of how long you think you will live. It’s a decision best made in the context of an overall financial plan – so talk to your professional advisor.
