Getting to Know You….. A NEW monthly page (in The Serenan) dedicated to learning more about our neighbors that many of us chat with but don’t necessarily know very well. If you would like to have your story told, look for the purple notebook in the clubhouse and call me. We will set up a time for us to meet so I can hear your story and clarify what you would like to share in The Serenan. OK, OK….I’ll go First. My name is Shawn Marie McCarthy and I was born and raised on Long Island in New York. With one older brother (Rian)and two younger sisters (Kelly and Tracy), we were blessed to live in a beautiful area where we could wander the woods half of the day or sled down our favorite hill at Harry’s house, until we heard the lunch or dinner bell. Mom would always go with us to the beach to swim or collect clams in the bay. My dad was a lifeguard at Jones Beach and my mom was a Synchronized Swimmer, also at J.B., (where their love story began). So learning to swim was nonnegotiable, especially since we lived so close to the water. Another good fortune for us was the opportunity to take many camping trips cross-country and back during the summers, since my dad was a High School PE teacher, having summers off. Somehow my dad’s planning efforts enabled him to figure out how to travel to and through 48 states, towing a pop-up camper, a family of six and sometimes grandpa. I have since had the pleasure of visiting Hawaii and Alaska, so lucky me has viewed so much beauty within each of the 50 states. Beyond the beauty, however, I’ve also witnessed significant racism and sadness. I got my Associate’s Degree in Art (upstate NY) and then traveled (1979) in a VW Van with a boyfriend to California/Sequoia National Park: beautiful but not much to do. After a couple years I decided, however to move to Arcata, CA to live near my sister Kelly and go back to school at Humboldt State U. Upon graduation in 1986 (Fiber Arts), with 50 states under my belt, I decided to backpack through Europe for 3 months (ALONE!). It was truly an enriching experience for this very shy gal. My desire to travel didn’t stop there, and thus far I have had the privilege of visiting 16 countries (including Mexico and Canada). After living 12 years in Arcata I felt the urge to move again. I had been working in a Tofu shop and also as a teacher’s assistant in a childcare center, which seemed like a natural fit for me. I moved to Mill Valley to be a nanny (1989), then a teacher for young children for 20 years. I certainly loved seeing “my cuties” and their families every day and felt loved. Wait.…something is missing…where’s the Romance and Drama? Well, thanks to personal ads, I met my first husband Jim (1997). He was an MFT (Marriage and Family Therapist) whose clients were mostly troubled teenagers and their parents. He had the patience of a saint. Of Greek descent, his given name was Demetri Demetriou. His passion was music, and he was a singer-songwriter and guitarist, with one album to his credit (which was a dream come true). He was very sweet and our getting together was meant to be. Then came our much-cherished daughter Sophia (2000)…and, quite unfortunately… a diagnosis for Jim; it was myelofibrosis and apparently 2 in 5 cases can turn to Leukemia, which is what happened. Jim died on 5/2/01. Wow! I was a widow with an 11-month old baby. We had 3-plus years of Lovely and Tragic. Luckily, I had some very special family and friends , both near and far, to help me out here and there. Not everyone can handle the subject of death, 7

dying and grieving, but that’s ok. Believe me, life was rough for a long while, but, maybe because I was trained in Early Child Education, I did whatever I could possibly do to enhance Sophia’s life. Fast forward 12 years (2/2013) to my love life, Chapter 2. Well, the personal ad worked well the first time, at least in regard to finding a special person with whom to spend life together. And remember, I still had an exceptional 13-year-old teenager in tow. Honestly, how many truly honorable 50-60ish year old men would be on board to help raise a teenage girl for four plus years (until graduation), and beyond? Lucky me hit the jackpot AGAIN! Not only did I find MY Bert, My Love, I was blessed also to gain his lovely, wicked-smart daughter, now my BONUS DAUGHTER, along with her amazing family. From the beginning, Bert had and still has tremendous patience with Sophia (his Bonus Daughter) and me. Still working as a hospital R.N. (Kaiser, Santa Rosa), we moved to Petaluma and married on 12/31/2014 - now it’s been almost 12 years. After several moves, we finally found our forever home at lovely Pueblo Serena. And for the icing on the cake, my kind and talented sister Kelly now lives nearby. We enjoy going to yard sales, swimming, watching movies, etc. Last but certainly not least of all, my heart goes out to any and all of our Pueblo Serena residents who are currently grieving the loss of a loved one. Someone once said to me, grief for a loved one is like a club that you hope no one ever needs to join. It is such an terrible time that is so lonely, difficult, and full of soooo many different emotions! The important thing to know (in my opinion) is that there is no scheduled time-frame or end date for any person to grieve, AND there is NO right way to grieve; to each their own style. I have included four websites that might be helpful for those who are in mourning and for those who may wonder what they can do or say to a friend or neighbor to ease their pain. There are also great books in the Sonoma Library. Since 2018 I have “lost” many special people: my brother, a good friend, a cousin, two aunts, and my mom. UGH! I have tremendous gratitude for all the wonderful people in my life looking after me and I for them. Feel free to call me with any questions or just to sit and chat. What soothes my soul: gardening, knitting, crocheting, making jams and hangin’ with my fav people. What soothes your soul?

THE DASH The Dash. That brief mark, almost nothing, that sat between two numbers and held everything else inside it. From The Dash Keeper by Giuseppe del Zotti I recently enjoyed reading Giuseppe del Zotti’s novel. It is about the experiences of the caretaker of a cemetery in a Sicilian village who also engraves the tombstones. As he chisels the dash between the birth and death dates, he ponders its significance. Such a small stroke carved into the marble “no wider than a finger” that represents an entire lifetime of loves and losses, successes and failures, tears and laughter, relationships and legacies. The novel is more of a fable. One of the messages has to do with grieving. The dash can be a reminder to focus not on the dates of the beginning and end of a life, no matter how short or how long that life, but on the life lived in-between. We can remember with gratitude shared experiences and with appreciation the person’s gifts and character. However, the story contains another important message. To make the most of the dash while we are still alive. What will our dash represent? A life lived with authenticity? Talents shared? Dreams fulfilled? Loving relationships? Service to others? With many of us enjoying longer life spans, the dash can also symbolize a threshold where, like, Janus, the double-faced Roman god of portals, we can look both backward and forward, toward past and future. The peak of Maslow’s pyramid of human needs is labeled “self-actualization”– the fulfillment of our potential. As we look toward the past, we can acknowledge our personal achievements including dreams fulfilled and challenges overcome. As we look toward the future, we can consider possibilities for enhancing our life journey and fully realizing our unique potential. While a longer life often includes challenges, can we nevertheless be empowered, emboldened and enriched by age rather than victimized by it? What about our life would benefit from tweaking to bring us more into alignment with our heart? Can we continue adding to our experiences, stay curious …perhaps even adventurous … and savor the mysterious unfolding of our unique life journeys? __________________________________________________________________ Gary Hermes resides at Sonoma Oaks manufactured home community and is passionate about exploring the potential of the elder journey for self-growth and service.

Robin’s Corner - Community Manager, Pueblo Serena Estates I just love my walk to work and the cool mornings. Even though it’s August it is cool enough to make me think, yes - Autumn is just around the corner. Saying “hey” to Mick tending his garden, waving to Barbra and Chuck, deep in conversation, and thanking Aaron for having a pot of coffee on when I finally get to the club house. Then when I am on my way home and it is necessary to remove my sweater, because it is too hot, I think, oh good, we can keep the pool open! And as I pass by the pool there are usually a few folks keeping cool in the pool. Morning or afternoon my walk is pleasant. Win, win. Returning from our annual family, summer vacation at the beach, which was wonderful, I have found myself playing catch up all week. Checks to be processed, filling out final paper work with a new resident, calls back and forth about properties on the market, hiring a new weekend person, etc. etc. And you know what I’ve discovered? It was not overwhelming or, frustrating, it was all very doable and I finally feel like I know what I’m doing!!!! Yay me. Speaking of new residents, Rona Fisher in #119 may move in any day now. Hopefully by the time this is delivered, she will be in and already nesting. Betty Frain, #77 has been setting up house since early July, and, just yesterday Susan Rukeyser signed her lease for #84 and will be joining our Pueblo community soon. Times are changing. Since I’ve started working three years ago, we have had thirty homes turn over. It is nice to see new faces, and get to know our new neighbors, [most of the time]. Some might even become friends! It could happen. I’m sure the Ice Cream Social was a success. How could it not be, and maybe new friends were made. I believe the next thing on the Social Calendar is the Halloween party. If you believe Costco, it is never too early to decorate or get your costume ready. Hold off on the pumpkin carving for another week or two, they might wilt in the heat. Thank you to everyone who returned the Emergency Contact information. When I was going through the files, it was clear some of the information was no longer relevant. Also thumbs up to all who are keeping their homes and yards “Home & Garden” beautiful. One of our residents created a spread sheet that makes keeping track of who might need a friendly reminder, easier. If you receive one of those coveted reminders, and need help, let me know and we might be able to find a volunteer to help out with light yard work or an easy repair. It’s all about maintaining our beautiful community, for all of us to enjoy. That’s it for now. Remember to be kind to yourself and one another. ~ Robin McCormick, Community Manager 12

On Listening – a Poem by John Roedel Life became less exhausting once I stopped trying to be the smartest person in the room. Now I just try being the most human sounding person in the park. It’s not always easy ~~ I’ve found that nobody really ever misses my shallow insights on geopolitics or economics. The biggest thing people need from me is the space to tell a chapter of their story and then after a bit ~ I tell a little of mine and then after some more shared storytelling and turn taking ~ we see the soul light in each other peeking out the corners of our eyes. Dear ego, less of my mouth ~ more of my ears less of my mouth ~ more of my ears less of my mouth ~ more of my ears It’s not about impressing people in the room ~ it’s about giving room for people to be heard. Less of my mouth ~ more of my ears less of my mouth ~ more of my ears less of my mouth ~ more of my ears

Ways to Keep Deer Out of Your Yard by Danielle Blundell Deer can be a nuisance in your garden, eating your favorite plants. Learn how to safely and effectively deter these unwanted visitors. Deer are beautiful and integral parts of their natural ecosystem, but they can wreak havoc on your carefully tended garden. These graceful creatures have a strong appetite for many common plants, leaving behind damaged foliage and disappointed gardeners. Fortunately, there are many strategies you can use to protect your landscaping from deer damage. Our comprehensive guide walks you through 20 effective methods to keep deer away from your yard and garden. Our suggestions range from deer-proof plants and home remedies to organic solutions and humane exclusion techniques. Our guide is part of a prevention plan you should put into effect now—even before you’ve spotted the season’s first deer. 1. Avoid planting tempting foods Deer are the hungriest in the spring when does are nursing their fawns and all deer are trying to regain the weight they lost during winter. Avoid planting large amounts of their favorite foods: high-protein, moisture-rich plants such as English ivy, lettuces, beans, peas, hostas, impatiens, and pansies. Fruit trees are also prime targets for deer. As Rhonda Massingham Hart points out in her book on how to keep deer out of your yard, Deerproofing Your Yard & Garden, “The sweetness and flavor of strawberries and peaches make them as attractive to deer as they are to people.” Instead, focus on incorporating a variety of plants, including those less appealing to deer, to create a balanced and resilient garden ecosystem. Pro Tip: David Jensen, a Michigan gardener who was so frustrated by deer damage that he quit his marketing career and opened Deer Resistant Landscape Nursery, notes that “Many plants have their own repellent built in.” 2. Keep their favorite plants close to the house If you keep deer-favored species in your yard, plant them near your home so you can monitor them more closely. Deer tend to prefer smooth, tender, and flavorful plants, including chrysanthemums, clematis, roses, azalea bushes, and various berries. By keeping these plants closer to your living areas, you can spot and deter deer activity more easily before they damage your yard. Additionally, the increased human presence near the home may make deer more hesitant to approach. 14

3. Plant pungent perennials as a natural barrier Deer rely heavily on their sense of smell when foraging. Create a perimeter of strongly scented herbs to mask the aroma of your prized plants. Consider planting aromatic varieties such as garlic, chives, mint, and lavender around your garden’s borders or interspersed throughout your landscaping. These pungent plants serve as a natural deer deterrent, provide fresh herbs for cooking, and attract beneficial pollinators. Many of these plants are also relatively lowmaintenance, making them highly functional additions to your garden. Pro Tip: When This Old House design director Amy Rosenfeld built a house in deer-heavy Ulster County, New York, she combined aromatic plantings with a homemade “deer juice” spray made from Fels Naptha soap, scallions, garlic, eggs, and chili powder. “It totally works,” she says. “When people come over, they’re always like, ‘How do you have hostas?” 4. Plant thorny, hairy, or prickly foliage While a deer’s sense of smell is its primary guide when selecting food, certain textures can discourage them from eating. Incorporate plants with fuzzy, thorny, or prickly foliage near vulnerable areas and entry points to your garden. Some options include:     

Lamb’s ear (Stachys byzantina) Barberry (Berberis species) Cleome (Spider flower) Globe thistle (Echinops ritro) Russian sage (Perovskia atriplicifolia)

These plants deter deer and add interesting textures to your gardenscape, making it more vibrant and dynamic. 5. Make deer-resistant substitutions When planning your garden, consider substituting deer-favorite plants with similar but less appealing alternatives. Check out reputable sources, such as the Rutgers University list of deer-resistant plants, to find alternatives that match your desired colors, heights, and functions for your garden. Here are some replacement tips:    

Replace tulips with daffodils, which are generally unpalatable to deer Choose thorny rose varieties such as Scotch or rugosa roses instead of hybrid tea roses Opt for hellebores instead of hostas for shade-loving ground cover Plant alliums in place of lilies for spring-blooming bulbs

Recipe: Summer Corn Salad by Meghan McKee from Facebook

For the salad (makes 8 servings): 8 ears of corn, parboiled 3 minutes, just to get the starch out 2 ripe peaches or nectarines, skinned and cut into small square bites Half of a red onion, finely diced 1 large fresh jalapeño pepper, finely diced Fist full of cilantro, chopped Pinch of salt French (non Greek) feta or Cojita cheese to taste. Also going for a mild cheese flavor here. For the dressing: 4 TBS avocado or sunflower oil (going for a neutral flavor) 2 limes, zested and juiced 2 finely chopped garlic cloves Tajin seasoning, to taste. I used about a teaspoon. Parboil the ears of corn for about three minutes to get rid of the starch and then cut the kernels off of each cob and pan fry with a pinch of salt on high to achieve a roasted texture. Cool, then add the chopped and diced ingredients. Pour the dressing and mix!

Many Voices, One Message In July, a homeowner survey was conducted to help the City Council better understand who lives in Sonoma's manufactured home parks & the human consequences of a park conversion. Part 1 of the survey contained questions on demographics, affordability & investment in home. Part 2 gave homeowners the opportunity to express themselves in their own words about the impacts of a park closure & dislocation. While everyone's story is unique, the responses were overwhelmingly consistent & compelling. The results of the survey follow. Many thanks to all who participated.

Think about your evacuation route in case of a fire or earthquake. Consider your neighbors who do not have cars, or may need additioanl help. Make plans in your cul de sac now. Exchange phone numbers.
