10 Steps on How to Practice Financial Wellness

WELLNESS IS A “HOT TOPIC”. When you hear about it you probably think of yoga, matcha tea, retreats by the ocean, etc. There’s another side of wellness that can go overlooked in the hustle and bustle of life. We’re talking about financial wellness. The state of a person’s finances can have a big effect on almost every aspect of their life. And it can be hard for someone to prioritize healthy habits conducive to physical and mental wellness when their finances are out of whack. In a way, it all comes down to financial wellness.

Taking control of your financial health is a learning process. There are things you can do that will have short-term benefits, and things that won’t pay off until well into the future. It’s never too soon to get proactive about your financial well-being.

Here are some steps to get you started:

• Make a budget

• Create savings goals

• Look at your debt

• Set career goals

• Decide to invest or not to invest

• Choose whether you rent or buy your home

• Plan Your Retirement

• Build Your Estate Plan

• Craft a Will and/or Trust

• No more procrastinating

Financial wellness is taking care of yourself and what you own – and Estate Planning does just that. At Anthony J. Madonia & Associates, we can help get you on the path towards financial wellness.

Tax Attorney vs. CPA: Why Not Choose Someone who is Both? Whether you need a professional to assist with tax issues on personal or business-related concerns, it can be difficult to determine exactly which expert best fits your needs. Two of the most reliable professionals to aid you with tax problems are the tax attorney and the CPA. Both of which offer different — though often overlapping — services.

Tax attorneys and CPAs can both assist with your tax needs, yet there are distinct limitations to what roles they can play on their own. This is why hiring a dually certified Attorney-CPA is the smartest way to go. They can provide a more comprehensive level of service.

Attorney-CPAs have the financial background to understand the intricate details of your balance sheets and are able to advise on business structure to reduce tax liabilities. Should you ever run into any legal trouble regarding your tax filings, your Attorney-CPA could represent you due to their knowledge of your business’ financial records and their litigation training.

Additionally, you may be able to save money by hiring one professional who has the knowledge and expertise to advise on both important business decisions while still performing the tasks of keeping your finances running smoothly and ensuring your taxes are professionally filed.

Anthony J. Madonia & Associates Ltd. can provide expert assistance with all your tax needs. Contact us for a consultation today.

We protect your interest with a fierce devotion to solutions that maximize your bottom line. We commit to the highest principles of integrity, excellence, and client service.

We grow with you by evolving our service platform to accommodate naturally changing conditions.

NORA BRAUN

BY RESIDENT NORA BRAUN

ARTICLE SPONSORED BY MARIO DILORENZOKELLER WILLIAMS ONECHICAGO

Your name: Nora Braun Street you live on: South Prospect Avenue School you attend and grade you are in: St. Paul of the Cross in 4th grade

What sports do you play? How long have you been playing? Which one is your favorite? I play softball, volleyball, basketball, and I also swim and ski. My favorite sports are softball and swimming. I have been playing softball since 1st grade, which was my first full summer in Park Ridge. I am now on the Park Ridge Pistols 10U team. I have been taking swim lessons my whole life and my first year on a swim team was 2 years ago with the Park Ridge Riptides. After a season of Riptides, I was asked to join the Neptunes swim team.

What inspired you to get started with your chosen sport? I have always loved swimming. I loved going to water parks and swimming in Florida at my grandparents’ house. Once I started racing, I loved it even more and then realized I was pretty fast. For softball, I had a chance to play on a team with my dad and Coach Tony as my coaches for Park Ridge Wildkits and they really taught me to love the game even when I was just learning how to play. I love playing on a team with all my friends.

What positions do you play? Is there a position you hope to play someday to get you better in your sport? In softball, my favorite positions to play are second base and pitcher. In swimming, my favorite stroke is breaststroke.

What do you enjoy most when playing your favorite sport? In softball, I love being with all my friends on the team. I also love when I pitch strikes in games. In swimming, I enjoy racing and cheering on my team.

What is your proudest moment and who do you have to thank for helping you get there? My proudest moment in swimming was going to Regionals last summer. My coaches Nicole and Cyndee on the Neptunes helped me improve all season to get to Regionals.

Who is someone you admire and why? I admire Katie Ledecky because she is one of the best female swimmers in the world and has won 10 Olympic medals. That is why I’m #10 on the Pistols this season. I am going to watch Katie Ledecky swim this summer before the Olympics at the USA team trials in Indianapolis.

What advice do you have for others looking to get into your chosen sport? Make sure to go to as many practices as you can. Don’t give up on yourself if you make mistakes or don’t do as well as you think you could’ve done.

Beyond sports, what do you like to do? Are you involved in any other extra curricular activities? I play guitar and saxophone at SPC. I also love to read and participate in the Battle of the Books at the Park Ridge Library.

If you were to continue to practice your sport, what do you hope to become or accomplish one day? I would like to eventually go to Regionals again and then to the State competition for swimming. One day, I’d like to go to the University of Notre Dame and play either softball or be on their swim team.

Did You Know?

BY RESIDENT JOAN MATTINGLY

Did you know……That Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, originated after the Civil War. In 1971, it became a federal holiday, honoring the men and women who died while serving in the military. Americans celebrate Memorial Day by participating in parades, visiting cemeteries and holding family gatherings. Park Ridge celebrates Memorial Day by hosting a parade that works its way north on Cumberland Avenue from South Park, then winds up Main Street, ending in front of City Hall. The American Legion Post 246 along with the local Boy Scouts also visits the Maine Township Cemetery and places flags at the gravesites of deceased veterans. This year, resident centenarian Marie Sartor Pawelek, a WWII veteran and nearly 70-year resident of Park Ridge, has been invited to serve as Grand Marshal of the 2024 Memorial Day Parade. Her son, Michael, a Marine veteran of the Vietnam War, will accompany her.

Born in Eveleth, MN, Ms. Pawelek graduated from high school in 1942 and was a locally known blues singer that attended a Catholic women’s college in Duluth for a year before joining the military as a WAC. She went to Beaumont General Hospital in El Paso, TX, for training as a medic and was eventually assigned to Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C. where she worked with amputees.

At Walter Reed, the staff learned of her music background, singing and playing piano, and modified her job description to work with shell-shocked (now known as PTSD) patients using music therapy. She played and sang and helped her patients to learn to play piano. She was discharged as a Corporal in 1945, using the GI Bill to study at the Sherwood Music Conservatory in Chicago. She married and the family, including son Michael, moved to Park Ridge in 1954. Later divorced, Ms. Pawelek moved to a new condo building in Park Ridge in 1968 where she still resides today. Ms. Pawelek’s career as a singer and pianist involved appearances across Chicagoland; for many years she played at Eli’s on East Chicago Avenue.

Ms. Pawelek is delighted to be invited to be Grand Marshal of Park Ridge’s Memorial Day Parade saying, “This is the greatest honor a vet can have!”

“I know my mom sees my nose on her lap when she’s eating anything at any time of the day or night, and she won’t share.”

—CHEWIE

HI MY NAME IS CHEWIE (short for Chewbacca)! I had a brother Han Solo who crossed the rainbow bridge but I have a new brother and he is just as cute and adorable! We are all rescue dogs and most people think I am a pure Golden Retriever but I’m actually part Spaniel. I’m deathly afraid of baths, vacuums, and this toy dog that doesn’t even look real. I’m 5 years old and love peanut butter, steamed yams and ice cream. True facts: I lost 24 pounds in the past couple years and my vet still thinks I’m overweight. Rude. And I’ve also had recent surgery to remove 70 stones from my bladder. Now I’m on a special diet and oddly enough I love prescription food. I love my long morning walks, but the rest of my days are spent on the couch with my brother.

Chewie & Ralph Lauren

My Pet peeve: I know my mom sees my nose on her lap when she’s eating anything at any time of the day or night, and she won’t share.

Hi I’m Ralph Lauren, yes, I know famous name, but that’s how you get a name like mine when you are fostered by six college girls. I was found in a Walmart parking lot full of fleas and matted fur, but the girls gave me fabulous hair blow outs and bought me a plane ticket from New Orleans to come live with my new family. I had a terrible diet and college habits (I like to surf the counters), but my family tells me I fit right in. I’m very flexible and awkward, my back legs are too short, but I’m cute and loving at all times and I never have a care in the world. My only job in life is to

make my hooman family and my sister Chewie happy. I will always meet you at the door, wag my tail and lick your face even if you are not watching.

I think I’m about a year old and probably a Tibetan spaniel.

My Pet peeve: Getting a bath after having a fun time outdoors. Mom doesn’t like mud and is no fun sometimes.

“My only job is to make my hooman family and my sister Chewie happy.”

Field School 70th Annual V Show

.....And We Turned out Fine!

It’s always been for the kids! Now, 70 years later, it’s still about the kids. Parents from Field Elementary School prepared and wrote original songs, skits and dances then performed five shows in March to raise funds for Field School PTO. The hilarious new sketch comedy show... And We Turned Out Fine was much more than acting and singing on stage. The audience enjoyed great costumes, a few commercials, and a ton of laughs by a talented cast and crew. Stroll Park Ridge was a proud sponsor of the VShow! Congratulations Field School parents for 70 years of consistent dedication and support of our kids!

HODGES PARK MEMORIAL

BY RESIDENT PAUL HANSEN

We of Park Ridge often pass by

Taking notice of those who died

Hodges’s Park sits in the middle of town

So it is where all gather round

These boys first died over a century ago

Their names all ones we should know

The memorial is in front of City Hall

Where

The wind in the trees whispers a refrain

Of the boys long now gone drawing you near

Biding you to honor them as you pass here

From juicy East Coast oysters to delicious Mediterranean calamari and authentic Japanese sushi, all coasts come together at Saltwater. Come and let the experience transport you to the ocean, no travel required!

SUMMER TIME IS HERE!

Events NOT to miss this Summer

BY MARGARET HOLLER, MARKETING & PUBLIC RELATIONS DIRECTOR PARK RIDGE PARK DISTRICT

There are so many special events at the Park Ridge Park District this summer! I love how summer events bring out families and friends and enhance the wonderful, community feel of Park Ridge. The following are some of my favorite events this summer:

Summer Craft & Vendor Fair – It’s time to shop local vendors! The Fair is held outdoors on Saturday, June 8 at Centennial Park from 9:00am – 3:00pm. There’s always a nice selection of fashion items, accessories, jewelry, skin care, home goods, and sweet treats! It a great event to pick up a gift for someone special or just treat yourself!

July 3rd Fireworks Celebration – This event seems to bring out the entire city to Maine East High School!

The Park District provides a DJ and an interactive dance party for the kids from 6:30-8:00pm, live music entertainment starts at 8:00pm, and then the huge fireworks show once it’s dark. You are encouraged to pack a picnic and get there early to claim a great spot. If you are worried about parking, you can purchase a preferred parking pass in advance from the Park District. The deadline to purchase a pass is June 19 while spaces last.

Concerts in the Park – If it’s a Friday night, Hodges Park is the place to be. The Park District will kick off the summer concerts with “Are You Ready For It,” a Taylor Swift tribute band, on June 21, then “Todd and the Ten Pins”, covering hits from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, on June 28.

LIFE IN THE DAD LANE

BY RESIDENT SCOTT CASTELLANOS

AELAN AESTHETICS

Rejuvenation & Empowerment

We vacationed in the Smokey Mountains and the Airbnb had a book with notes from past guests. We used it mostly for recommendations for entertainment and food, but there was one entry that stood out. It was a father that wrote about his son wanting to see Bigfoot. No other context, just “My son is hoping to see Bigfoot,” Seemed out-of-left field, and I am pretty sure that Sasquatch is normally ‘sighted’ in the northwest, so none of it really added up, but it got me thinking that being a parent of teenagers is kind of like being a big foot hunter. We both navigate rough terrain without any real evidence and are mostly driven by belief and hope. Like ‘Squatchers’ we surround ourselves with others on the same journey and, ultimately, both our goals are to spend time with primitive primates. My primates aren’t eight feet tall or as hairy, but sometimes it does feel like they eat as much and are quite possibly just as stinky. Another part of parenthood that we share with folks searching for the mythological creature is how elusive our targets are. Every time we feel we are getting close; we must be extra careful not to spook them. A big foot may get scared by a sudden loud noise or a scent, but with teenagers you never know what will do it. It can even be as simple as a hello or showing too much interest in them or even, heaven forbid, encouragement. I really shouldn’t complain, because the best bigfoot hunters of all time only have a few recorded sounds, and a blurry photo. I have thousands of pics, hugs, and memories. Plus, I’m pretty sure the thing ‘Squatchers’ and parents of teens have in common is that the reward isn’t so much in the end result, but the journey getting there.

COOKIN’ PARK RIDGE?

MOM’S BOURBON

CHEESECAKE

BY RESIDENT STEPHANIE GOETZ

INGREDIENTS

Yield: 12-16 Slices

Crust:

• 1 cup finely ground/chopped pecans

• 1 cup crushed graham crackers

• 2 tbsp packed brown sugar

• ¼ cup melted butter

Cheesecake

• 4 8-oz bricks full-fat cream cheese

• 2 packed cups brown sugar

• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (or 1 tbsp corn starch)

• 1-2 tsp vanilla (to taste)

• ¼ cup bourbon (use what you would drink)

• 4 slightly beaten eggs

Optional

• 4-6 ozs chocolate (semisweet or dark)

PREPARATION

1. Make sure you’re prepared. You’ll need: Soft cream cheese; just leave it out for a couple hours to get soft. 9-inch springform pan. 10-inch works as well, just don’t go smaller. baking sheet for conveying the springform in an out of the oven. A couple of bowls and a stand mixer if you have one.

2. You’re heating the oven and making the crust at the same time: Turn on the oven to 350 degrees while you make the crust. For the crust, mix the ingredients in a small bowl until you have a moist and spreadable consistency. (It should feel like kinetic sand.) Press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan and up the sides of the pan a bit if you can. Put the springform on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Remove and cool as you work on the filling.

3. Using a stand mixer with a beater, combine the cream cheese, sugar, flour (or cornstarch), and vanilla and mix on medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Beat in the bourbon until smooth, then add the eggs and mix until combined. Note that the longer you beat the mixture, the most air your introduce and the fluffier/creamier the cheesecake gets. The downside is the cheesecake will crack, in which case you will need to deploy Step 5 – camouflage!

4. Pour the filling into the springform and bake about an hour. Bake for about an hour, maybe a little more. When ready, it will be golden and the middle will be a touch jiggly. (It will be a function of how big a pan and how fluffy to beat it.) Cool on a rack for up to an hour and transfer to the refrigerator. When ready to serve, run a knife around the pan if needed. There is enough milk fat and sugar, so it may just pop out of the pan easily.

5. If the surface cracked, it’s OK. Tastes delicious and you will likely be the only person to care.If you are a perfectionist and can’t live with that, hide it with chocolate. Heat the chocolate chips in a small bowl in the microwave or using a double boiler. You can use a spoon to pour the slightly cooled mixture into a pattern on the cheesecake – swirl, lattice, or big painterly strokes. You can also use a piping bag if you have one and don’t mind cleaning yet more things.

Do you have a recipe you would like to share? Please email us at strollparkridge@gmail.com

STORY BEHIND THE RECIPE:

I was raised by my immigrant single-mom in Edison Park. Mom was a great baker, but I wasn’t the kid who grew up with fresh baked cookies, unless it was around Christmas. She did, however, make delicious cakes - Usually bundt cakes when we had people stopping by. If she really liked you, she would make a cheesecake. Looking back it, it was quite an expensive gift for a single mom to make - several bricks of cream cheese and enough fresh berries to cover the top. She died when I was 25 but her memory lives on in so many ways, including her mini-me (my daughter) who cooks/bakes alongside me and the fact that I am now the one who brings the cheesecake. You can change this recipe to suit your needs or tastes. If you’re gluten free like me? Use gluten free graham crackers or all nuts and corn starch. Don’t like bourbon? Swap in cashews and rum, vanilla wafers and amaretto, or chocolate wafers and Luxardo cherry liquor. Can you turn into a plain cheesecake with strawberries? Probably. But for me, some things are just better in my memories. Enjoy!

MOMS A VERY HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

A MOTHER’S LOVE

A Mother’s Love is something that no one can explain. It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain, It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may, For nothing can destroy it or take that love away, It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking, And it never fails or falters.

THE HARBOUR

MISSION: The Harbour provides emergency housing and services to youth experiencing homelessness to promote safety, stability, and personal growth.

Our beginnings in 1971 reflected a community response to a young woman experiencing family trauma, with no place to turn for safety, save a juvenile detention center. Since then, The Harbour has been steadfast in our commitment to support youth navigate the challenges that led to their housing insecurity. These may include abuse and domestic violence, severe family conflict and/or parental mental health or substance abuse issues. Lacking essential adult role models and critical resources impairs their ability to develop skills to achieve successful adulthood and permanent housing.

Through a 3-pronged approach including community outreach, emergency shelter, and transitional living programs, The Harbour provides a continuum of housing options for female-identifying and non-binary youth ages 12-23 experiencing homelessness throughout all urban and suburban Cook County.

Our community outreach program expands awareness of youth homelessness and creates community-based access points for youth to obtain housing resources and referrals. Safe Harbour Emergency Shelter, our flagship program, provides emergency shelter for female identifying and nonbinary youth ages 12-20 for up to 21 days.

Transitional Living programs respond to longer-term housing needs, up to 18 months, for youth ages 16-24 at high-risk of homelessness. These include survivors of human trafficking, pregnant and parenting teens, and youth aging out of the Department of Child and Family Services, DCFS.

• Youth in Transition-provides up to two years of supportive housing for youth referred by individuals, partner agencies, and family members.

Empowering

youth, developing futures

BY RESIDENT KRIS CICHOWSKI

• Successful Teens/Effective Partners- provides supportive housing, mentoring, and parenting support only for pregnant and parenting teens.

• Department of Justice- provides supportive housing and specific programs and interventions only for identified survivors of human trafficking.

• DCFS- provides supportive housing and care only for young adults who no longer have foster placement after age 18. Core activities include ongoing therapeutic case management, life skills training, sexual and general health education, clinical support groups, budgeting and financial literacy, employment skills training, educational support, and parenting education and support when needed. We rely on our community of supporters and volunteers to enhance community engagement, provide learning opportunities for our youth, build systems of awareness and community-based healing, and promote fundraising activities and events to raise funds to sustain critical programs. We invite you to join us as learn why a long-term volunteer noted: It is so important to me to be part of an organization that works so hard to help young women achieve success despite the hazards of family breakdown, broken spirits, and dysfunctions.

Common landscape mistakes & tips from a local pro

BY PARK RIDGE RESIDENT - LANDSCAPE DESIGNER VANESSA TOBIN

1. Poor Planning- Failing to have a plan before starting your project can lead to improper placement of plants, wrong plant selection,costly project and a high maintenance landscape.

Tip: Think through the project before starting and know your outdoor space and light requirements. Hire a professional to design your outdoor space and create a functional plan that works well for your families needs, etc.....

2. Poor Plant Selection- Choosing the wrong plants can result in poor growth and an undesirable looking garden.

Tip: Before purchasing any plant materials make sure you look at the sunlight, spacing, region/zone, soil type and water requirements.

3. Improper plant Spacing and Placement- This is a huge mistake most homeowners make. Improper placement of plants can lead to a “jungle effect” years later. Plant placement is crucial

for growth and development of the plant as well as aesthetics and design.

Tip: Read the plant’s tag and label! Placement of the plant should be determined by the plant’s size at maturity and not the actual plant’s size when purchased. Be patient and allow your plants to thrive over time.

1st year of planting.. They Sleep 2nd year...They Creep 3rd year...They Leap

4. Poor Soil Preparation- This can lead to nutrient deficient soil that can lead to drainage issues, root damage, and delayed growth of the plant.

Tip: Turning or tilling your soil every spring and before installing new plants can help avoid common soil issues. Adding organic matter, such as compost and peat moss to the soil can help stimulate growth and help with drainage.

5. Neglecting to mulch- Weeds, weeds and more weeds! Neglecting to mulch

your garden beds will result in weed growth and loss of moisture in the soil.

Tip: Applying a 2”-3” layer of premium triple shredded mulch to your garden bed can suppress weeds, but more importantly maintain the moisture in the soil.
