The Hampton Herald

"The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things:” ~ Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking-Glass For several years now The Boss has been talking about retiring. Unfortunately, the same past few years have not been kind to the news publishing industry in general.

Sales have declined significantly at Ossekeag, but our tracking of key competitors makes us reasonably certain that their sales have declined even more. Regardless, it is not an attractive time to be looking to dispose of a business.

The alternative, however, would mean waiting for the economy to turn around and who knows how long that could take. . . and the missus sure isn’t getting any younger. So, we are currently seeking individuals who find the prospect of owning New Brunswick’s second largest news publisher to get in touch with us if you have a sincere interest in taking over the business. Key factors that we would be assessing: 1. Community minded 2. Can play well with staff and customers 3. Ideal person would be able to drive sales 4. Able to generate new products, and diversify current revenues 5. Must have access to approximately $50,000 for cash flow management plus purchase price

the business, she has asked me to be the front person. In order to have an organized process, please email me a page or two indicating why you are a good potential owner to mike@ ossekeag.ca, please no calls. All needed information will be made available at the appropriate time.

For the right person or persons, we are ready and willing to take the time needed to ensure that a proper transition takes place. We are highly motivated to have Ossekeag continue to be successful, as closing it down would be very harmful to the communities that we serve and the advertisers who support our publications. Leaving our competitors with a print monopoly would allow them to truly price gouge and their current deep discounts would undoubtedly quickly disappear.

Don’t worry, we are not going away immediately and we will certainly do our best to get Ossekeag into the right hands for a long and hopefully prosperous future. While I do believe that the right person can and should make a reasonable profit, what is for absolute certain, is that you will never lack for a deeply appreciative audience for what we do. 0001

Since the missus is very busy operating

I heard hearing loss and dementia could be related… is that true?

Gradual hearing loss is a common symptom of aging, but in some people it may also be an early sign of Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia, a new study suggests.

The risk of dementia appears to rise as hearing declines. Older people with mild hearing impairment – those who have difficult following a conversation in a crowded restaurant, say – were nearly twice as likely as those with normal hearing to develop dementia, the study found. Severe hearing loss nearly quintupled the risk of dementia.

Hearing loss may lead to social isolation (which itself has been linked to dementia), for instance, or it may interfere with the brain’s division of labor. The brain might have to reallocate resources to help with hearing at the expense of cognition. That may explain in part why straining to hear conversations over background noise in a loud restaurant can be mentally exhausting for anyone, hard of hearing or not.

We listen with our ears but hear with ours brains; it is not possible to separate audition and cognition.

The two conditions may also share an underlying neuropathological process.

A lot of people ignore hearing loss because it is such a slow and insidious process as we age. Even if people feel as if they are not affected, studies are showing that it may well be a serious problem.

POINT OF VIEW SNOWFALL CASH AND CAUSES With the record breaking snowfall amounts we've experienced this winter, it's no wonder most of us are counting down the days and weeks until we see green grass again. For the skiers and snowmobilers out there, it's been a banner year.

Despite the excessive white stuff Old Man Winter has thrust upon us, it's been heartwarming (and entertaining) to see how some people have chosen to make the most of a bad situation. An entrepreneur from the New England states is bottling and selling snow in three convenient sizes - a 480g bottle for $19.99, six pound box for $89 or a 10 pound package for $119.

According to his website, ShipSnowYo. com, this guy has actually filled well over 100 orders.

It reminds me of the phrase, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” My initial reaction was one of disbelief, but it quickly turned into, why didn't I think of that? It isn't costing him a penny for the product,

he isn't likely to run out of stock… ever, and with only shipping costs to contend with, his profit margin is impressive.

There are others who are using the huge snowbanks as a canvas for worthwhile causes. A two-time cancer survivor from Amherst, NS has converted a huge pile of snow into what he's calling the Hill of Hope.

Daren White used Kool-Aid and water to paint more than 100 pink cancer ribbons on the impressive snow pile that sits in the Amherst Centre Mall parking lot.

His goal is to raise money and awareness for this year's Relay for Life event. Photos of White's Hill of Hope have been shared all over social media sites and his ingenious idea is sure to raise a good amount of money for cancer research and to assist those living with the disease. For a $5 pledge to his relay team, people can guess what date the last of the Hill of Hope will melt and disappear.

Closer to home, family members, friends and neighbours of a Belleisle Creek woman battling breast cancer haven't let the cold temps stop them from shaving their heads in a show of support for their friend. Carol

(Joynes) Beckett started her chemotherapy treatments in January and, not wanting her to feel alone in her cancer fight, had a head shaving party. We now have a community full of beautiful, bald women and men. Oh, and several more with dyed pink hair!

It's been inspiring to watch Carol and her many supporters share this journey together. Their positive attitude is contagious and serves to remind us all to not sweat the small stuff (gigantic snow banks included). They are living proof that it's not about what life throws your way, but how you choose to react to it.

If you have any comments, I'd love to hear from you.

Sea Belles, Saint John's only ladies barbershop chorus, invites women of all ages and voice ranges who love to sing to come, see and hear for themselves the fun of singing in a cappella harmony.

It's not every mother who can say she's in harmony with her teenaged daughter, but that's what Valerie Dingee can say of her 16 year old daughter, Claire. Both are members of Sea Belles, a 53 member ladies chorus that sings in 4 part a cappella harmony. Valerie joined the Sea Belles five and a half years ago, to pursue an interest in singing. Since that time, she has enjoyed the wonderful camaraderie of the other chorus members, the challenge of competing against choruses from all across North America, and most recently, the pleasure of having her oldest daughter sing with Sea Belles.

Dingee adds that both her daughters have been singing in public from a young age, proudly saying her oldest daughter, Claire, also loves the challenge of singing a cappella. She thrives on the

performance opportunities it provides her as well as the chance to sharpen her sight­reading and ear­training skills, and for the first time she is also dancing and acting as part of the music. "There does not appear to be an age barrier," Ms. Dingee adds, "as the older and younger chorus members are encouraged to get to know each other and can provide their skills and experiences to make Sea Belles a well-rounded chorus.

Sea Belles' Chorus invites women of all ages and voice ranges who love to sing to come, see and hear for themselves the fun of singing in a cappella harmony.

Sea Belles meet every Tuesday evening at 7:00pm at Forest Hills School auditorium. Excellent coaching is provided by Sea Belles' Director, Janet Kidd, a well known singer and composer. “If you’ve never sung before, we’ll help you find your voice,” says Vangie Mofford, Sea Belles' Vice President responsible for membership.

LISTEN IN ROCK ‘N’ ROLL LEGEND I love it when Rock ‘N’ Roll Royalty comes to New Brunswick! Thank you Casino NB for bringing world class artists to the province! Bronx, New York native Chuck Negron formally of Three Dog Night.

With a knack for choosing the ideal material for the band as well as singing on these hits; Paul Williams penned “Old fashioned Love Song”, “Eli’s Coming” by Laura Nyro, “Pieces of April” by David Loggins and the reverent feel-good smash “Joy To The World” by Hoyt Axton. “When the band first got together we started working on some songs that the guys had written in a tiny rehearsing room. We didn’t really play well together.

I thought, if I brought some really good songs to work on (from other writers – just to get the ball rolling) maybe eventually we could get around to the original stuff.

We talk about the hey days on the Sunset strip in Hollywood and the famous Whiskey a go go where Chuck performed

and hung out back in the day with riveting stories about Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and shows you only wish you were around to witness first hand. “It’s a part of my life. I remember all of us trying to make a living. Chicago was a band we flip flopped a lot with at the Whiskey.

In another city, Portland I think, we flip flopped with Led Zeppelin. The opening act was James Taylor.” Some of their other opening acts were Rod Stewart, ELO and Aerosmith, just to give you a little perspective on how big it all was!

Chuck also tells me about the new music that is coming out soon that his two youngest daughters are involved in with him. ““It’s been a wonderful experience, working with my girls. They are fun and they are really talented and they are the new generation. They’re in there singing and texting. Their phones are in there at all times.”” What are you doing in there?”

Chuck says with a laugh.

“I’m looking forward to it. I know it will be a lot of fun. I love being in Canada.”

Chuck says in conclusion in anticipation

of performing in NB. Us too Chuck! You also gotta check Chuck’s book!

In closing, he has this message for us all and the upcoming show! “I want to say how excited we are to come up and play in Moncton, New Brunswick. I want to invite everyone out. We’re going to have a fun time!”

Local Business Women are Making a Go of it in Your Community.

Women in Business When you think of a small business owner do you picture a frazzled middle-aged man who’s a little saggy in the midsection, hunched over a desk?

Did you know? In Canada there are almost one million women who are self-employed and women who own their own businesses has been growing steadily over the past fifty years. Between 2001 and 2011 the number of self-employed women grew by twenty-three percent in Canada. That’s an exciting trend which is sure to continue into the future.

There are approximately 1.2 million small businesses in Canada. Almost ten percent of those businesses are coowned by a men and women. Seventeen percent of small business have a women as either sole or majority owner.

That’s a staggering 204,000 businesses in Canada run by women. What a wonderful thing.

HAMPTON FOOD BASKET NEWS As we are all well aware, this has been a particularly difficult winter; the costs of heating and food have escalated and we have been forced to scale back on the amount of help that we can give to our clients. The decrease in the cost of gasoline has been a help to some, however a great many clients don’t have cars and those that do use them sparingly. Times are tough and we would appreciate any donations of dry good or cash that could be offered. All financial donations will be recognised with an Income Tax receipt; by buying in bulk our co-ordinator Catherine is able to strike some great deals with local merchants, thus stretching the dollar as far as possible. Cheques should be sent to our treasurer, 39 Tilley Street, Unit 2, Hampton, E5N 5B4.

We will continue the screening process in hopes of helping clients, as well as providing data to convince Government that more help is needed. During the client days in March and April Flo and Philippe will be available to help in completing Income Tax returns again, so get your paperwork ready for free, confidential assistance. The next preparation day will be on Wednesday March 18 from 8:00 until 10:00am. Clients will be served on Thursday, March 19 from 8:30 until 11:00am.

Our thanks go out to Kredl’s for joining Spud’s n Things, Pizza Delight and Robins Donuts who donate produce to this outreach. Thanks also to our team of men who pick the goods up on a regular basis.

We have need of: 1 single bed; 1 single mattress; 1 king size mattress bed; 2 double beds; 1 queen size bed; 1 washer; 1 sit down walker; 1 small kitchen table. If you can help out with any of these items, please call Janice at 832-4340.

While we greatly appreciate all the food items that are so generously given, we are prevented by the rules of the NB Food Banks, to give out any outdated foods and reluctantly have to dispose of any that come our way; therefore we ask that special care be taken that donors check the best before dates prior to giving them.

For Emergencies you may call Catherine 943-0158; Janice at 832-4340; David 6448746; Louise 832-5303; Betty 832-7526.

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS Since the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership was founded almost 10 years ago, we have been very fortunate to have been assisted in our efforts by John Lovett. Some of you may remember John when he visited Hampton with Nontokozo Dlamini in the summer of 2008. Over the years, John has been an invaluable asset to the Partnership, acting as our eyes, ears, and legs on the ground in Piggs Peak. John is now in his early 70’s and has decided to leave Swaziland to spend more time with his children. We will miss him a lot but wish him all the best as he enjoys the next stage of his life.

Part of John’s role within the Partnership was to help fulfill our mission - to alleviate the impact of HIV/AIDS in Swaziland - on a day-today basis. The Partnership gave John a monthly allowance to spend where he determined the need to be greatest, whether it was paying for food, clothing or medical care. With John’s departure, we are fortunate to have Linda Mathunjwa step in and take over this role. Linda is a 25 year old Swazi man

who visited Hampton in the summer of 2012. He became a Hampton student in 2009 when we started paying his school fees in Form 2 (grade 9). With our help, he has now successfully graduated and is a practicing paramedic in the Piggs Peak area. Linda will now help the Partnership by interacting with other Swazis and assisting with their needs when warranted. He says “I love working for the kids… I know the story of their

life as I'm one of them." Having a true “insider” like Linda will help us develop the Swazi solutions that are necessary to alleviate the fundamental problems of poverty, disease and despair that afflict our Swazi neighbours.

On Saturday, March 28 at the Hampton Seniors Resource Centre, the Hampton Piggs Peak Partnership is hosting a Women’s Fundraising Dinner & Silent Auction - Women Celebrating Women through Food and Song. Doors Open at 5:30pm / Dinner at 6:30. The event will feature Special performances by Debbie Adshade & Hannah Cummings. Tickets ($45) will be available at Hampton Pharmasave or by calling Jill 832-0815.

Also, transportation will be available after the event for a free-will offering.

Limited tickets are available and our last women’s dinner sold out quickly. Tables of eight are available, so gather a group of friends and get together for a great evening of food, drink, entertainment, and friends.

ASK THE CHEF STIR FRY Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. What is stir fry and why do we do it? Great question and we are going to have to go back in history again for the answer.

So what is stir fry? It is the act of cooking vegetables and meats at very

high temperatures with very little oil.

It started in China during the Han Dynasty about 220 BC. It was a way of drying grains, not meat or vegetables.

They would heat the pan and add the grains, stirring quickly as it dried. It was during the Ming Dynasty 1368 that they started adding small amounts of oil and discovered by adding vegetables and meat they could create a hot tasty meal

quickly.

Stir fries have become known as a healthy option in preparing food today, trapping in vitamins, flavours and colour of the vegetables while only using a small amount of oil in the process. This is why the wok is essential to a stir fry. It allows the oil to collect in a smaller area at the bottom of the wok, but as you stir constantly, the oil rises up the wok and slides its way back to the bottom. So a little goes a long way in this action.

Stir fry was brought to North America by the Chinese. It wasn’t until 1945 that the first cookbook called “How to Cook and Eat in Chinese was introduced.

Here stir fry is described as: “Roughly speaking, ch’ao (stir fry) may be defined as a big-fire-shallow-fat-continualstirring-quick-frying of cut-up material with wet seasoning. We shall call it 'stirfry' or 'stir' for short. The nearest to this in western cooking is sauté... because stir-frying has such critical timing and is done so quickly.”

So that is how it came to be called stirfry in our culture. It was in the 1970’s that a cookbook described stir-fry cooking as a healthier way to eat that the craze of stir- fry began.

Today at our local grocery store, entire sections are dedicated to this cooking method. You can find already prepared vegetables and 10 plus different premade bottles of sauces all ready for you to open up and stir-fry yourself a meal in a matter of minutes. Of course I would never suggest this as a good way to go. I am a strong believer in doing it yourself.

Making your own sauce and preparing your own vegetable and protein of choice but in today’s society, time is everything.

Important ingredients you should always have when stir frying besides the oil; ginger, garlic and a little heat from either peppers or powder but it will make all the difference. This is a great cooking method that allows you to experiment with different flavours and never be wrong.

PREMIER VISITS HAMPTON On January 22 the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce hosted a Meet and Greet with Premier Brian Gallant at the Lighthouse River Centre. Approximately 65 individuals attended to hear the Premier describe the difficult task the government and the citizens of New Brunswick face, as the present sluggish economy in this province is addressed.

The Chamber was particularly interested in hearing the Premier's reference to the importance of small business in Atlantic Canada, and in New Brunswick in particular.

Our membership can attest to the challenges each of us faces as we strive to succeed, while maintaining the quality of life we enjoy in our wonderful community.

Premier Gallant is asking each New Brunswicker for ideas for reducing the deficit and issued a warning that some decisions Government will make will not be popular ones, but decisions he believes are necessary to improve the financial health of the province.

Premier Brian Gallant and HACC President, Sharon Worden The Hampton Chamber wishes to thank the Premier for the opportunity he provided Hampton to meet with

him. Our community, our businesses, and our families will all be affected by the decisions he makes. 3367

Did you know...

How to Prevent Ice Damming With the winter in full swing comes a potential for water damage to your ceilings and walls caused by ice dams on roofs. There are steps you can take to help prevent this kind of damage to your home.

An ice dam is an accumulation of ice at the lower edge of a sloped roof, usually at the gutter. When interior heat melts the snow on the roof, the water runs down and refreezes at the roof ’s edge. Eventually, ice builds up and blocks water from draining off the roof. This, in turn, forces the water under the roof surface and into your attic or down the inside walls of your home. Taking action can avoid trouble later.

- Keep the attic well ventilated. The colder the attic, the less melting and refreezing on the roof.

- Keep the attic floors well insulated to minimize the amount of heat rising through the attic from within the house.

- Consider installing electric heating cables on roof surfaces and in the downspouts.

This three step approach decreases the likelihood that ice dams will form or, at least, reduce their size.

to homeowners that all the additional snowfall brings a concern about the amount of snow on roof tops. Residents are encouraged to safely assess snow loads and if necessary, have their roof cleared. It is strongly advised to seek the help from someone with the required skills and equipment to conduct this safely.

It’s a good idea to have snow removed from low-pitch roofs when the snow depth is 18 inches or more. This is especially true if the snow is wet or if

rain/ice are forecast. In addition to lowpitch roofs, valleys, protruding elements like skylights and dormers, and northfacing roofs are also of concern due to snowdrifts and the inability of the snow to slide off.

Warning signs that a roof is about to collapse - Roof-rafter sag is one obvious sign of excessive snow weight. Other indicators are creaking, cracking, and/ or popping sounds.

Listen with Compassion Almost everyone worries about what to say to a grieving person. But knowing how to listen is much more important.

Oftentimes, well meaning people avoid talking about the death or mentioning the deceased person, but the bereaved need to feel that his or her loss is acknowledged, it’s not too terrible to talk about, and his or her loved one won’t be forgotten.

While you should never try to force someone to open up, it’s important to let the bereaved know they have permission to talk about the loss. Talk candidly about the person who died and don’t steer away from the subject if the deceased’s name come up. When it seems appropriate, ask sensitive questions that invite the grieving person to openly express his or her feelings. Try simply asking, “Do you feel like talking?”

AUS TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS Members of the Saint John Track Club (SJTC) and UNBSJ were well represented at the 2015 Subway AUS (Atlantic University Sports) Championships held in Moncton on February 28 and March 1. Together they capped off an extremely successful conference where athletes ran, jumped, and threw their hearts out achieving countless personal bests, school records, and medals.

Local Hampton athlete, Daniel Brown, a third-year UNBSJ student, won the gold in the 300m in a time of 35.96s - just missing the AUS record of 35.85s set in 1993. Brown also won the silver medal in the 600m in a time of 1:21.79s and this broke the AUS record of 1:22.00 from 1992.

Brown would add another silver to his medal haul as a member of the men's 4x400m team. Brown will extend his season as he has qualified for the CIS national championships in Windsor, Ontario on March 12-15 where he will compete in the 300m.

Clayton Holteen, another athlete from Hampton and third-year UNBSJ student, finished 4th in the 4x800m relay, 14th in the 600m, and 10th in the 1000m.

Rothesay – UNB athletes include Jake Hayes who won the bronze medal as part of the 4x200m relay and finished 10th in the 60m and Anne Ugabi who won a bronze medal as a member of the 4x200m relay and also finished 7th in the 60m. 3391

A quorum of eligible members were present and the motion passed unanimously. Information on the new schedule can be found on the HACC website at: hamptonareachamber.com.

Following the meeting, members were invited to enjoy a delicious array of refreshments prepared by the Bamara Inn, and to visit the number of displays set up around the room. Amsterdam Inn and Suites generously provided a night at their Sussex location as a door prize, won by Catherine Peacock of

CAMPBELL, Frederick Murray It is with sadness that the family of Frederick Murray Campbell of Southfield, NB, announces his death, which occurred at the Saint John Regional Hospital, on Tuesday, February 10, 2015, after a long battle with COPD. Fred was born on January 14, 1936 in Southfield, NB, the son of the late Frederick and Vessie (Campbell) Campbell. Freddie spent his last months at the Saint John Regional Hospital. His family and friends are very grateful to have had the opportunity to spend time sharing their feelings and reflecting on old times.

Fred was a man who was loved and respected by those around him. He was never one to waste a nice day indoors.

He loved the shade of trees growing over the riverbanks, and the soft babble of brooks. All his life he enjoyed fishing and passed this on to his children and grandchildren. He prided himself on being self-sufficient by living off the land. He was one with his surroundings, taking from it only what he needed. He spent many a day cutting and splitting

his own wood, tending to his vegetable gardens, stalking deer, and catching fish. For many the years fade away as we age, until we can only remember vague glimpses of how things used to be in "the good old days", but Freddie was an astute record keeper and kept notebooks full of measures and observations. He could tell you how much snow fell in January, twenty years ago, and how much the oil cost to keep the house warm that winter.

Fred had a most successful life for he is survived by his loving wife, Melita and his five children; Leigh Campbell and his wife Mary of Hampton, NB, Curtis Campbell of Hampton, NB, Carolyn Burns and her husband Malcolm of Norton, NB, Beverly Campbell of Hampton, NB, Jonathan Campbell and his wife Angela of Norton, NB; and twenty-one grandchildren: Lisa, Jamie, Aaron, Caleb, Holly-Anna, Job, Kaleigh, Kaitlin, Jamie, Michael, Nicole, Olivia and Ava; great-grandchildren: Jessie, Jena, Jaden, Brady, Alexis, Lucy, Ella; great-great granddaughter, Delilah; as well as many brothers-in-law, sisters-inlaw, nieces, nephews and cousins.

He rested at Sherwood’s Funeral Home and Life Tribute Centre, Norton, with visitation on Thursday, February 12, 2015 from 3:00 to 5:00 and 6:00 to 8:00pm. The funeral service, conducted

by Rev. Karen MacNeill was held from Southfield United Church at 11:00am on Friday, February 13 2015.

Donations in memory of Fred may be made to Southfield United Church or to the memorial of the donor’s choice.

SMITH, Verna Amine It is with sadness, the family announces the death of Verna Amine Smith, age 88, of French Village NB, which occurred on Tuesday, February 17 2015 at the Dr. V. A. Snow Centre, Hampton NB. She was born on May 31, 1926 in French Village NB, a daughter of the late Chipman and Willamina (Beyea) Smith.

Within two days of Verna’s birth, she developed a medical condition causing brain damage. Her mother fed her by a medicine dropper, due to lack of ability to suckle. Verna was not expected to live beyond the age of eleven or twelve.

The middle child of three, Verna lived most of her life in French Village and Smithtown. Attending a one room school house in French Village, Verna trekked the two miles no matter what the weather conditions, as there were no buses. This is where she learned to read, write and made life-long friends.

Hobbies included coloring, scrap booking, puzzles, latchet hooking, and crocheting. Verna’s favorite games were Crokinole, Trouble, Chinese Checkers and Dominoes. Verna attended

Smithtown Baptist Church, and later was baptized and joined The Christian Church in Nauwigewauk.

Verna enjoyed doing light housekeeping for neighbours and family. She lived with her parents until the death of her father in 1982, and then moved in with her older sister until her sister’s passing in 2007. During these years, Verna became more independent, making her own decisions, and generously helping neighbours in need, donating to the church and cemetery funds. Verna spent one year at the Carleton Kirk Nursing Home while waiting for a room at the Dr. V. A. Snow Centre, where she made her home and lots of friends. Verna even ran a small business, crocheting and selling dishcloths. She is a member of the Nauwigewauk Christian Church and formerly a member of the Smithtown United Baptist Church.

Verna is survived by her special friend Karl Beyea; several nieces, nephews and cousins. Being the last surviving member of her family, she was predeceased by her sister Loy Beyea and brother Walter Smith.

She rested at Reid’s Funeral Home, Hampton NB, with visitation on Thursday, February 19 2015 from 3:00 to 5:00 and 6:00 to 8:00pm. Funeral Service, conducted by Rev. Ron Henderson, assisted by Bud Belyea and Rev. James Rushton was held on Friday, February 20 2015 at 11:00am from Reid’s Funeral Home Chapel. The organist was Neil Bonney.

The Hampton Herald

MUSINGS THE NEXT ONE? It is difficult to believe, but it has been 15 years since Mike and I jumped feet first into the publishing business. The Hampton Herald had been around for 18 years at that time, the Valley Viewer for 8 and the Sussex Signature was a mere 2 years old. The Tides was still several years in the future. It is like watching your children grow up and suddenly you look around and wonder where the time has gone.

I am proud of where our community magazines are today. Our new owl logo, the redesign of the layout, the organization of the content to allow us the space to enjoy the contributions of a variety of columnists, and the quality of the work that comes out of this little business. At the same time, we have stayed true to our roots, to the community focus first envisioned by Helen & Bert Boyd back in 1982 when they started this

little retirement project. It is an uplifting experience that brings amazing rewards.

But . . .

Isn’t there always a but! As Michael will be quick to point out, I am not getting any younger. There are those who think that being a business owner is a coast, free to come and go as you please, show up if you want, and draw down a big salary for little effort. Perhaps that is true for some, but it has never been the way it has operated for me. And after 40+ years in the workforce, I must confess to being ready for a little “me” time. I did try a little step back last summer, but when I lost a couple of staff members I was right back in here and have been ever since. It has become obvious that if I am to get any real “me” time, I must do more than step back, I must step out. That doesn’t mean today, not even tomorrow, but also it doesn’t mean 5 years in the future either. When the obituaries include as many of my contemporaries as they do my parents’ generation, I cannot ignore the reality of my own age.

And just as I would want to ensure my children would be taken care if I had died when they were too young to care for themselves, so too do I want to ensure the future of Ossekeag. Somewhere out there is the person or persons who can make sure that happens.

Think you might be the next one?

Tired of the corporate world and want to control your own worklife? Want to feel part of something bigger, of giving something back to the community? Want to work with a great bunch of unique personalities? Check out Mike’s Ravings in this issue for a little more of the nuts and bolts, and then get in touch with him if it sounds like you. 0002 Debbie Hickey President, Ossekeag Publishing
