Counting Our Blessings

BY ANNIE NYE, INTERIOR DECORATOR AT PONDERAY DESIGN CENTER It’s the time of year when people come into various home improvement stores in a panic because they have to have their home interior projects done by Thanksgiving or Christmas. Why? Because they will have guests and the things they’ve stared at all year now have urgency and need to be taken care of immediately.

This year, instead of panicking and stressing yourself out, treat yourself to a pay-it-forward kind of holiday season. Let’s think instead of what the holidays really bring to our homes. Most of the time, they bring friends and family. They bring memories, games, and if we are lucky, they bring vacation and relaxation.

So, instead of focusing on how to do last minute home improvements or concerning ourselves with which colors are trending, take a minute to think about those in our community whose last priority is the color of their walls. Think about those who are more concerned about where their next meal will come from instead of how to get rid of all their “junk.” Focus for a minute on our service men and women who are living on an Army Base half way across the world and have no idea what their homes look like this very moment.

As I get older and my kids ask me what I want for my birthday or Christmas, I have a hard time answering. I saw a quote recently that said something to the effect of as you grow older, your wish list gets smaller because the things you really want are things that can’t be bought. That struck me as a pretty profound and true statement.

Truly a one-stop-shop for all your home preservation needs. We are experts in the nuts and bolts of home repair, renovation and maintenance.

Four Season Construction & Maintenance For The Part-Time Or Year-Round Resident

With the holidays fast approaching, there are those less fortunate who would appreciate some thoughtfulness, like if we smiled at them or simply said hello, never mind if we shared something or actually interacted with them. Instead of avoiding eye contact with a homeless person and hurrying past, acknowledge them and say hello. If you happen to have an apple with you or something that you could pass along, do it. The feeling you get from that is a good one. I promise. And it sets a great example for your kids or better yet, when that person pays it forward. Ever have someone in line ahead of you buy your coffee? Not only does it feel good, you in-turn do the same. You pay it forward.

These next few months are the time volunteers ask for donations. Instead of feeling irritated, please feel blessed that you are fortunate enough to have something to give. Plan for it so that when you see them or have someone approach you, you are prepared and have something to share with them. Instead of feeling guilty passing by or saying no, you can exchange a smile and give them something to pay forward.

So this holiday season, instead of stressing about how your house looks, be blessed to have a house in which to host those guests. Relish the time you get to spend with that family member who may not be here for the next holiday season. Take time to enjoy the things you really wanted that simply couldn’t be bought.

PROTECT YOUR Ma rble Refinish/Etch Removal INVESTMENT

Local company expands to include tile and stone restoration. By Patty Hutchens.

When spending money on new construction or a remodel, we put hours into planning, budgeting and choosing our materials. After all, it is a large investment, and we will likely live with our choices for years to come. So why not do After all you can to protect that investment?

*(Tax Included in Price!)

www.sandpointcleaningservices.com

After

Rust Enterprises, Inc., a Sandpoint company that has owned and operated Rust Tile & Stone for over nine years, recently launched its second company, Cleanlinez. A tile and stone restoration business, Cleanlinez will help protect your investment and make your tile or stone look like new.

According to Nick Rust, who owns both companies with his wife Sheyna, all stone products such as granite and marble need routine polishing to maintain their shine and clarity. Many people do not realize that sealers wear off countertops, and they should be cleaned and resealed every three to five years. Without the protection of sealers, even granite can become unsanitary and damaged. It is also important for consumers to understand that certain household products can damage sensitive stones such as marble.

What we as consumers spend hours trying to accomplish, Nick and his staff can do in a fraction of the time utilizing their high pressure and hot water extraction machine along with mechanical scrubbing and professional cleaners restoring a surface to its original beauty.

Nick has made a career of tile installation, working on both residential and commercial projects since the mid 90s. Prior to opening Rust Tile & Stone in his hometown of Sandpoint, he worked in Hawaii and Salt Lake City. Here he works closely with local flooring retailers, architects and building contractors.

“We are really excited to introduce Cleanlinez to the community,” said Nick, who began researching the refinishing process about four years ago. “After doing a lot of research and training, I got into restoration. It’s important to all of us in our company to preserve what we install,” said Nick. “With the support of Cleanlinez, we are now able to offer lifetime warranties on all our residential installations,” he added.

The idea of Cleanlinez came about when Nick began to service his past clients.

“What started as cleaning, caulking and resealing grout, has led us to a much greater range of services we can offer,” said Nick of the restorative process. In addition to their residential services, Cleanlinez offers full commercial maintenance programs, including VCT. Nick feels it is important that clients understand the materials they are using in their facilities and how proper maintenance will maximize their lifespan.

Cleanlinez recently restored the floors at the local VFW Hall, offering a military discount as one way to give back to the community. Nick is a board member of the local Panhandle Building Contractors

Association and his company does a great deal of charity work around the area. “My husband and I cherish being involved with the communities we grew up in,” said Sheyna.

Fully licensed and insured, Nick and Sheyna feel honored to be able to provide quality craftsmanship to their customers throughout the North Idaho area. In addition, Nick said he takes pride in knowing his company is a responsible local business that is able to employ seven hardworking individuals who provide superior customer service. “I celebrate and encourage my staff to bring professionalism to each and every job they do,” said Nick.

Paige DuMars For Paige DuMars, sports have been an important part of her life. A three-sport varsity athlete, Paige is busy all year round with soccer, basketball and track. While she has played soccer since she was 5-years-old, Paige started track and basketball her sophomore year.

Last year was especially memorable for her as she was part of the girls’ soccer team that won the state title. “We also won the state academic award, which was really cool,” said Paige.

Paige’s career goal is to be a personal trainer. “I love to work out and be healthy,” said Paige. “I also like helping people.” To achieve this, Paige plans to attend a four-year college and receive her degree in exercise physiology. She would like to run track at the collegiate level as well.

“And possibly rugby if they have a team,” said the young woman who does not shy away from trying new things.

One of the biggest challenges she has faced athletically was in basketball when she had to make the jump from junior varsity 2 to varsity.

“I had to work extra hard to be the same level as them. It was hard going from a non-competitive team to an extremely competitive team,” said Paige. But she credits her coaches with helping her in the transition. “I got through it was because I had the best coaches that believed in me.”

Playing three sports has taught her an important life lesson. “If you work hard, you can achieve anything.”

Kyle Hertel For Sandpoint High School soccer goalie, senior Kyle Hertel, being part of a team has provided him with friendships beyond what he imagined.

“It’s basically like having a second family,” said Kyle, adding he is grateful for each of his teammates.

While Kyle had played soccer for many years, it was not until his freshman year that he began in the position of goalie. He earned a position on varsity his sophomore year, and has served as captain the last two years.

Kyle said he has learned a lot of things from the sport, but more than anything he has learned to keep pushing forward. “Even if it doesn’t go your way,” he adds.

Looking ahead, Kyle plans to attend college and pursue a degree in physical therapy and sports medicine. His career choice is driven by personal experience. “I had really bad patellar tendonitis and had to see a physical therapist,” said Kyle. “What they were doing to heal me was very interesting.”

Kyle would also like to continue to play soccer at the collegiate level. He is looking at Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri as one option.

And if you ask his coach, Adam Tajan, he is confidant that Kyle will be a success.

“He (Kyle) works extremely hard at school and on the pitch. He’s an excellent goalkeeper with the athleticism and skill to make big plays,” said Tajan. “We expect our keepers to be vocal and command the field. Kyle is very loud and a great organizer. He’s a college-bound goalkeeper.”
