EDITOR’S
NOTE
I love the month of July! In fact, 4th of July is one of my favorite holiday’s. It’s hard to believe it’s already come and gone. I hope you had a great time celebrating the independence of our great nation.
Don’t forget to savor each moment you have with your family, because somehow the busyness of life will return—and you’ll miss the time you’ve had together during this season of life.
Recently, I read this Wade Boggs quote, “A positive attitude can cause a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results.” These words have kept me encouraged as our world continues to change.
As we continue to practice social distancing, please support local businesses as you take care of the many things around your home that need attention.
The theme for this month’s issue of The Grand Season Family is cultivating a positive attitude. Rather than reflecting on the COVID-19 pandemic through a negative lens, I’d like you to think about what positive things have resulted from adjusting to your “new normal.” I know for my boys and I, we have spent a lot more time together. We’ve also taken some amazing road trips and had the opportunity to have some great conversations.
Thank you for your support of The Grand Season Family! We appreciate your support of all of those local businesses who help make our publication possible. Stay safe. Brighter days are ahead! Melissa McCullough Associate Publisher/Editor

POSITIVE VIBES
If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything. I’m positive that a doer makes mistakes. John Wooden Virtually nothing is impossible in this world if you just put your mind to it and maintain a positive attitude. Lou Holtz
Always go into meetings or negotiations with a positive attitude. Tell yourself you’re going to make this the best deal for all parties. Natalie Massenet
Change the world by changing your perspective
Natural ability is important, but you can go far without it if you have the focus, drive, desire and positive attitude. Kirsten Sweetland
I hope the millions of people I’ve touched have the optimism and desire to share their goals and hard work and persevere with a positive attitude. Michael Jordan
Really you just gotta keep chugging along and keep a positive attitude and get through all the problems. You gotta face them, otherwise you don’t get through. Lesley Gore
A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results. Wade Boggs
A positive attitude is a choice, like walking to the other side of a street to avoid trouble, or making a 180-degree turn when you feel you’re heading in the wrong direction. Richard M. DeVos
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.
Commitment, belief and positive attitude are all important if you’re going to be a success.
Helen Keller
You can do everything you can to try to stop bad things from happening to you, but eventually things will happen, so the best prevention is a positive attitude. Marie Osmond
Donald Johanson
A positive impact stems from our admission that we were wrong or our thinking was wrong. ‘I’m wrong’ are two little words that can help improve our own positive attitude. Richard M. DeVos

YOU
ATTITUDE AJUSTMENT Find the positive in every situation
Life right now isn’t how anyone planned for it. Plans have been cancelled, family has be distant, and in reality, all you want to do is getaway. While a better day is on the horizon—you can make today better by transforming your attitude. Here are some ideas to help you:
Quit being a victim. It is easier to assume the role of a victim during tough times than taking responsibilities for yourself. But doing so will only prolong your suffering, and put off people who may be able to help you out. Letting go of the victim label also frees you from resentment and bitterness, which will only jam up the creative energies you need to get out of the mess. Focus on the positives. No matter how dire a situation may be, there are always some positives you can find in it. It is our unwillingness to look at them that blind us to the brighter sides. Think of ten positive things that will happen from this pandemic. Give thanks. Having listed the positives you can think of, give thanks for the current situation as well as the things that you already have. For one, things could be a lot worse! It won’t be easy to be thankful in the face of harsh challenges, but focusing on what you do have, instead of what you have lost, will put you in a better position to solve problems on hand than being in a self-pity and sorrowful state. Get enough sleep. During stressful times, we’re likely to skimp on sleep, either voluntarily or not. But in reality, you will need more quality sleep during stressful times than ever, so that you can remain energetic, clear-headed and focused to figure out your next steps. Limit bad news intake. Being constantly fed with gloomy news is enough to make even a dog panic for no reason. Hearing bad news once is enough, not ten times of the same news in different versions from every gadget that you own. Join forces with others. When bad things happen, it is easy to become close-minded. But the reality is, you are not alone during difficult times. There are many people who feel the same way as you do, even though they may not voice it out loud. Get close to nature. Researchers found that spending time in your favorite outdoor area is more relaxing and restorative than time spent in your favorite urban settings or city parks. Taking a mindful walk outdoors is also a great way to clear the mind and regain mental balance.

LOVE
PLAY TOGETHER Take time to have fun!
We can all agree healthy relationships require a lot of effort. But sometimes, all you really need to do is relax and have fun. It’s time to take a step back, and take time to play with your partner. Here are some ideas to get you started: Play Lover’s Olympics — no money needed, just some creativity. Don’t forget a special prize for the winner. Some ideas are:
• Shot for Shot – paper and a trash can
• Race – from one point to another
• Timed Task – who can complete a task the fastest
Pillow Fight. Enough said – so much fun and great stress relief.
Stop saying “no” and start saying “yes” to your partner’s wishes for one evening. Remember to take turns, perhaps go ride bikes and race to see who wins. Feed one another – chocolate, ice cream, or any yummy treat your partner loves. For extra surprise and fun… blindfold the receiver. Get reacquainted – ask each other interesting questions that will enhance and deepen your connection and understanding of one another and that facilitate conversation. Such as:
• If you could never speak again, how would you express your love to me? • What was your first thought when we met?
• What was your favorite part of your childhood?
• What is one value you learned growing up that you bring into our relationship today? • If we only had one more day together, how would we spend it?
Power Outage – pretend for one night there is a power outage in your home! No electronics, no stove, no microwave, what would you do? Have an “Attitude of Gratitude” – write down 25 or more things you appreciate about your beloved, take turns sharing with one another what you wrote.
Go on a trust walk – one person leads the other while blindfolded and then switch. Talk about the experience, how well did you trust this person? Was this an easy task or hard task, why?
Have a surprise day for no reason. Surprise your beloved with something, as if it were a special occasion.
Cook a meal together – select the meal, shop for the ingredients, and divvy out the tasks. Cook, eat, and make sure you clean up together. Game Night – pull out a board game, bring on the appetizers and enjoy. Make sure there is a prize for the winner. Roll the dice – grab 2 dice, for 1 of the die assign tasks such as 1 = hug, 2 = kiss, 3 = foot massage, so on and so forth. For the other die this would be for the amount of times or minutes. For example, roll the pair of dice. On 1 die you roll a 3 and the other die rolled 6. This would be a 6-minute foot massage.
Take a walk or a stroll hand in hand if you feel like it, break out into a skip or hop like a kangaroo, just get your silly on! Either create a bucket list or get out your bucket list, go down the list and start planning to make one of those items a reality. Pick an activity you used to do when you were dating and go recreate the moment.

TEENS
RESTLESS
Ideas to help teens manage social distancing • For juniors, suggest they check out virtual tours of colleges, and visit Kahn Academy for some SAT prep. • Let them pick where to order take-out from. • Remind them how much they used to enjoy playing an instrument, then put out that guitar, ukulele, flute, or book of piano music. • Put out a set of oil or watercolor paints, and text them a link to a free online painting lesson.
• Loan them a good camera and suggest they go outside and do some nature photography. • Suggest they use YouTube to learn a new hobby. • Have them pick out a comedian they like, or suggest one, and watch a stand-up act.
• Invite them on a hike or a walk, or encourage them to meet friends for one (at a safe distance.)
• Ask them to learn a new way to braid hair, with a sibling, or with you as the guinea pig.
• Teach them how to cook a favorite meal. If lacking inspiration, follow a chef online. • Ask them to bake something with you, or on their own, if they would prefer.
• Suggest a series to binge-watch together, or ask them to pick one. • Find a really interesting documentary and invite them to join you. • Invite them to family board game night. • Ask them if they’d like help organizing, cleaning out, or rearranging their bedroom.
The Grand Season family
• Offer them opportunities to do housework or yardwork and earn money.
• Put out a couple of yoga mats and invite them to join you for an engaging online yoga class.
• Ask them to pick a film and plan a movie night.
12
• Suggest they separate out clothes they no longer wear, and prep them for donation.
July 2020
• Suggest they put on their favorite playlist and take a bubble bath, suggest a deep conditioning and face mask to go with the bath. • Invite them to an afternoon of spa treatments. Give each other manicures, pedicures, foot rubs, and facials. • Start an intricate puzzle and ask them to help work on it. • Suggest an engaging novel to read. • See if they are interested in making a family tree. • Suggest they make a bucket list of all the things they’d like to do together as a family, before they move out.

HERE’S A TIP Lemons and limes last longer in the cooler. Say that three times fast, and stick your citrus in the fridge! Window frames can be tricky to clean. And they are a magnet for dust and dirt, or worse — condensation that can lead to mold. To get into the crevices, employ a toothbrush sprayed with a tiny spritz of furniture polish. Ever wonder how long your peanut butter will last? On the pantry shelf, you can expect it to hold for 7-12 months, if stored in a cool dark place. After opening, it will last 3-4 months in the fridge. Smudged mascara? Remove it on the fly with a little bit of lip balm. Simply run your finger over the lip balm, then carefully remove the smudge. You also can put a bit of the lip balm on a tissue and use that instead. Stick-down carpet tiles are great for making a path from where you park your car in the garage to the door. It makes a nice nonslip surface. Use a lint roller to remove dust from a lampshade with fabric that is flat but textured. If your lampshade has pleats, your best bet is a clean soft paintbrush. www.grandseasonfamily.com

TRAVEL
ROAD TRIP Take the long way home.
a tale. Can’t tell right away whether it’s a lie, or just want more info about what really happened?” Each player gets two follow-up questions, which can be used before or after the story is revealed to be true or not. Every correct guess is 2 points. First player to 10 wins.
Make time fly by faster than that maniac in the left lane with these road trip games to play with your partner, your girlfriends, or any other grown-ups you bring on your next adventure.
Spin a Story from the Past Think of this as “who can lie better?” Essentially, one player begins by telling a story about their past (could be dating stories, but you know, proceed with caution), and the other person has to say whether they are telling the truth or spinning
Riff Off While the traditional license plate game involves finding a plate from each of the 50 states (yawn), this game involves finding a license plate with random letters and
creating a word with those letters— think of it like Road Trip Scrabble. (So if the license plates is YMT23, you could say Yosemite.) Instead of taking turns, just yell when you see one and can come up with a word. The other person can challenge you by coming up with a longer word that features those letters. Two extra points for those who spot a vanity plate out in the wild. First one to 10, wins.
Explain a Movie Plot Badly This one’s a game that others play outside of road trips, but it also works when you’re trapped in a car. It goes something like this: One of you thinks of a movie and then explains the plot in a way that is both factual, but also terrible. (Need some inspiration? Look at #ExplainaFilmPlotBadly.) Then, the other person has to guess. If they guess correctly, they get a point. If they don’t, you get a point.
Radio Roulette This is essentially a game of Name That Tune. It’s easy—flip to a station (best to do with presets, though advanced points for truly just seeking the next station), and let it play for 15 seconds. The other person has to name the artist and name of the song. One point for each. Bonus point round—name the album. First one to pass 15 wins.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING A PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR
Who knows you best? Your spouse? Son or daughter? Best friend? If your primary care doctor doesn’t make the list, you could be missing out on one of the most important relationships when it comes to your health and well-being. Here are 5 tips on how to choose the right primary care doctor for you. 1. Ask around. The first step to finding a great doctor: Talk to your family and friends about their great doctors. A recommendation from someone you trust is a great way to identify a highly skilled, helpful physician. 2. Map it out. Since you’ll be visiting your primary care doctor for everyday health needs, it’s important that he or she be located somewhere convenient to you. You won’t want to travel very far when you’re not feeling good. 3. Make sure you’ve got coverage. Once you’ve identified some possible candidates, check whether they work with your health plan. 4. Place a cold call. Call a potential doctor’s office for a first impression of the practice. 5. Keep your needs in mind. Every person has unique health needs, and those needs change as people age. Ask your doctor about his or her specialties or areas of interest.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren. Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.” Sue Royer Director

No U.S. president has ever died in the month of May.
Boxer Mike Tyson once bribed a zoo worker to open the attraction for just him and his wife. During the visit, he also tried to bribe an attendant to let him fight a gorilla. The employee said no.
In the 1st century AD, Roman men as well as women used cosmetics — lightening their skin with powder, applying red pigment to their cheeks, and painting their nails, though you’d hardly want to use their form of nail polish today — a nasty mixture of pig fat and blood. They also painted their heads to camouflage bald spots!

Alcatraz was the only prison to offer its inmates hot showers, but don’t make the mistake of thinking that had anything to do with showing kindness to the prisoners. Rather, the assumption was that if they were used to hot shower water, they’d be unable to cope with the frigid waters of the San Francisco Bay and deterred from an escape attempt.
