I’m willing to bet you’re happy the traffic is gone.

With so many of our neighbors headed to cooler climates for the summer, now is the time to enjoy a little slower pace, and perhaps invest more time in those friendships you may have been neglecting.

Our theme for this month is happiness. Often in life, its easy to postpone happiness in lieu of a bigger goal. Research shows, however, happiness will help you be more successful. It’s a matter of the mind, rather than an outgrowth of your journey.

We can help with TVs, wall mounts, sound systems, universal remotes, TV antennas, satellite installation, computers, wifi, security camera systems and much more!

WE CAN WORK ON YOUR EQUIPMENT OR WE CAN HELP YOU SAVE MONEY ON NEW EQUIPMENT.

Jack Nicholson’s making a new film!

His last film was the 2010 dud “How Do You Know.” When asked in 2013 if he’d retired, he said, “I haven’t quit acting; I just quit hitting on women.” It was known he had trouble memorizing lines, and many speculated he was suffering from early stages of dementia.

But apparently Paramount Pictures has agreed to have him play the kooky father in the upcoming remake of the hit German/ Austrian comedy “Toni Erdman.”

SUN SCREENS

▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ ▲ ▲▲ ▲

Brad Pitt admitted to friends that he can’t think about acting right now. He revealed he’s in therapy and is working on getting his drinking under control.

He has also been immersed in press tours for his latest films, “War Machine” and “Ghandi” with Oscar-winner Sir Ben Kingsley.

You will always get the best completed job for the money!

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT? Real. Weird. Stuff.

We’re in no danger of it happening these days, but once, in April of 1930, the British Broadcasting Corporation reported that there was no news that day. Instead of an announcer reading reports, they played soothing piano music.

According to pollsters, during the year 2016, both head lice and cockroaches were more popular than the U.S. Congress.

If you live in or travel frequently to Las Vegas, keep in mind that in that city, it’s against the law for a man with a mustache to kiss a woman. Enforcement, however, has reportedly been pretty relaxed.

You might be aware that penguins mate for life, but did you know that before they mate, there’s a proposal? It’s true—a penguin will spend a significant amount of time searching for the perfect pebble to offer its prospective mate.

SENIOR NEWS

KEEPING YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER Practical tips for safely managing the heat

If there’s one important thing to remember about summer and seniors, it’s that we don’t always know when we’re becoming overheated. Many of us don’t sweat, our circulation is often compromised, and medical conditions (as well as the drugs we take for them) can mask the dangers of heat.

Dehydration and hypothermia (heat stroke) can afflict us before we’re aware that it’s happening, and that can be deadly.

Here are some tips to help you stay safe and cool this summer: • Stay in the air conditioning as much as possible.

Air conditioning can give you a chill, but it’s better to drape a sweater across your shoulders in an airconditioned room than be out in the heat. If your home isn’t cooled, make it a point to go to an air-conditioned space during the heat of the day. Try the library, movie theater, indoor mall or senior center. Perhaps you can choose a different one every afternoon of the week. Call the local aging agency to ask about cooling stations.

• Do outdoor errands before 10:00 a.m. or after 6:00 p.m.

• Find out if the local senior center or fire department will be handing out free fans this year. Don’t wait until the fans are all gone.

• Drink enough liquids, and this means water. Avoid caffeine, which is dehydrating. Try fresh fruit or unsweetened popsicles. To be sure you get enough water, drink by the clock: at least a few swallows every 15 minutes. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty.

Keep a water bottle next to your TV chair or on the counter so you’ll see it.

• If you don’t have air conditioning, ask your doctor if you’re taking any drugs that are affected by high heat.

• Wear light, loose clothing, like cotton, and take off your hat when you’re indoors.

CELEBRATE

IDEAS FOR FATHER’S DAY

Some inspiration for great gift giving

Dads are great, but finding the perfect gift can be a challenge. Here are some fresh ideas for ways to celebrate the fathers in your life on their special day.

Birchbox Man Subscription Send Dad a monthly surprise box filled with pomades, moisturizers, and all of the aftershave he’ll need until his next shipment arrives. Fill out a grooming profile of Dad’s style along with his hair and skin types and so he’ll receive products handpicked just for him. $20 per month, available at www.birchbox.com Smythson Short & Sweet Wee Notebook Dad can slip this petite 2-by-3-inch notebook into his back pocket so he’ll always have a spot to jot down notes and reminders in a meeting. Made in England from rich cross-grain lambskin, it’s a luxury item Dad might not buy for himself, but one he definitely deserves. $40, available at www.smythson.com

Sugarfina Pale Ale Pints If your pop likes hops as much as he likes sugar, these pint-sized sweets are sure to make him smile. Pair these bright citrus-flavored candies with a growler of Dad’s drink of choice from his favorite local brewery. $7.50, available at www.sugarfina.com Sriracha for You Package If your dad loves adding hot sauce to everything from eggs to chocolate ice cream, don’t let him leave the house without a mini-Sriracha keychain attached to his belt loop. Designed for Sriracha-lovers who want to enjoy their favorite sauce both at home and on the go, the set includes one 9-ounce bottle, a 1.7-ounce keychain, and a one-ounce keychain. $15, available at www.amazon.com Kikkerland Virtual Reality Glasses If Dad asked for a VR system but you’re working with a $15 budget, these virtual reality glasses are the next best thing. Dad can turn on his favorite 3D app, strap his smartphone into the headset, and travel the galaxy or explore the Sistine Chapel without getting off the couch. $15, available at www.kikkerland.com

TIP 2 If you are training a puppy or your fur baby has an accident on the carpet, here’s how to prevent a reoccurrence in the same spot: Blot up urine, then saturate the spot with club soda.

Allow it to sit for five minutes, then blot with paper towels!

TIP 3 Before you discard an item, look to see if any part can be reused. Wire from a broom can now be used to hang a picture on the wall. Also, remove any reusable screws or nails from items you toss and put them in plastic jars.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Little Sicily

Mouthwatering Italian Cuisine You’ll Crave After the First Bite Little Sicily has been serving authentic Chicago-style Italian cuisine in the Northwest Valley for 10 years.

Locally-owned and operated by Sicilians, the food at Little Sicily is unbelievably delicious.

Mike Faulisi and George Alaimo purchased Little Sicily from their friend and former owner Dominic Scafidi. George Alaimo moved to the U.S. from Sicily in the 1970s, and has been in the restaurant business ever since. “I remember walking past a pizza place when I was 12 years old, watching people throw pizza dough in the air, and thinking, ‘I want to do that.’

When I was 13, I went into that same pizza place and asked for a job, and soon was washing dishes. Making pizza is an art. I had to work my way up to that.”

In addition to the many sandwiches and pizzas made at Little Sicily, the menu boasts authentic Italian pasta dishes and appetizers, as well as delicious desserts.

“The Cannoli is homemade and the Tiramisu is brought in fresh from Chicago,” says Alaimo.

Among the other unique services available at Little Sicily, is BYOB (Bring your favorite wine and beer). Additionallly, Little Sicily loves to cater events. If you call at least 48 hours ahead, they will make a menu your friends rave about for days to come.

For more information about catering, or to place a to-go order, call (623) 537-5900.

Little Sicily, is open 11:00 am to 9:00 pm Monday-Thursday, and 11:00 am to 10:00 pm Friday and Saturday. They’re closed on Sundays through the summer.

ENJOY YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS

Silence your inner-critic

Imposter syndrome is a secret held by many—even the highest of achievers. Award-winning actress Tina Fey once said, “The beauty of imposter syndrome is you vacillate between extreme egomania to a complete feeling of, ‘I’m a fraud! Oh, God, they’re on to me.’”

While not a diagnosable psychiatric condition, imposter syndrome is a very real feeling, “People believe they are a fraud, that they are not as competent as they appear or as other people believe they are,” says Judith S. Beck, Ph.D. “People with imposter syndrome tend to believe they have achieved due to luck or fooling others. They fear others will discover their incompetence or inadequacy.

Kyle SHOES 13535 Camino del Sol 623-584-1445

By facing imposter syndrome for what it is, you can begin to accept your accomplishments as real, adopt more rational ways of thinking and quiet your fear of being exposed as a fraud. Use these tips to move toward a more realistic view of yourself.

1. Give yourself credit Look back on your accomplishments and give yourself some credit. Believe those solid realities and not your own bad press.

2. Realize you’re lying to yourself Imposter syndrome isn’t about the lie we think we are perpetrating on others, it’s about the real, unrealistic belief—the lie—we aim at ourselves. Recognize that you are not a fraud and release your fear of failure.

3. Change your self-talk Practice rational responses to your negative self-talk.

Write out actual rational responses to each negative thought you build around yourself.

In 1977, a civilian contractor discovered that TCE was present in the drinking water at Pease Air Force Base in New Hampshire. The base closed in 1991 and turned into Pease International Tradeport. In 2015 the EPA jumped in and found perfluorinated compounds, an ingredient in firefighting foam, and others. The state of New Hampshire started testing people, and based on results, it’s changed the initial health advisory (short-term drinking water exposure) to a lifetime health advisory level. For more info, Google “Pease Air Force Base water.”

PACK LIKE A PRO

TRAVEL

Conquer the packing chaos

Whether it’s business travel, a family road trip or a romantic getaway, travel is an opportunity for new experiences. While you may be counting down the days to your next trip, you may also dread the idea of packing.

Fear not. Here are some tips to make packing easier: 1. Make packing lists This helps eliminate the last minute panic of throwing things in the suitcase because you have forgotten what you packed. Print it out a week ahead of time so you have time to adjust the list and consider what you’ll really need.

If you’re traveling with the family, every family member needs his or her own list.

2. Multipurpose clothing Check the weather for your destination so you pack appropriately for the forecast. Choose items that can serve more than one purpose. Also, pack one extra outfit, just in case the weather goes awry.

3. Pack toiletries strategically Only bring travel sized toiletries and then leave them behind to open up luggage space for mementos. To avoid spills and explosions, place toiletries in plastic bags.

4. Prevent wrinkling For delicate items, try wrapping them around soft, bulky items. For example, wrap a blouse or cotton pants around a sweatshirt. Use a rolling method to save space and cut down on wrinkles.

5. Utilize odd-shaped items Shoes take up a ton of luggage space, so select the fewest pairs you’ll need and wear the bulkiest ones while traveling. Place shoes along the sides or bottom to strengthen the bag and then stash items inside (like socks, nylons and deodorant) to maximize space.

6. Don’t forget plastic bags Plastic bags are the most versatile things you can take on a trip. Whether you need a bag for the pool, a place to put dirty clothes, or something to place a soggy swimsuit in before you check out of the hotel, plastic bags are your secret weapon.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Sun City Awning & Patio Looking to Escape the Heat? They’ve Got You Covered!

After 45 years in business, and 30 years at the same location, Sun City Awning & Patio decided it was time to move from its cramped location off Grand Avenue to a modern and spacious 15,000 square foot facility in El Mirage. “We held off (the move) as long as we could,” said secondgeneration owner Brian Beachy, “but our growth demanded more space, and now we feel so blessed in this new facility!”

“Sun City Awning & Patio is a one stop shop for all your shading needs,” says Beachy. “We carry a large selection of products, including pergola style patio covers, adjustable louvered patio covers, screen rooms, retractable patio awnings, window awnings, patio blinds, security shutters, and sun screens.”

Even though Sun City Awning & Patio specializes in shade and sun control products, they now also manufacture and install rain gutters. Many of their customers would ask them for a rain gutter referral, and the company never found someone they felt comfortable recommending…so they decided to invest in a new machine and start making them on their own.

THE GRAND SEASON • JUNE 2017

Shade is important in the desert. Studies show that shade reduces surface temperatures by 30 degrees, which can cut cooling costs by as much as 30%. Retractable awnings and Alumawood style patio covers protects your home from the sun by providing this critical shade…

AND they increase your outdoor living space. Equally effective are patio blinds that roll down around your patio cover to block out early morning and late afternoon sun. Finally, sunscreens and window awnings make an effective team to properly shade your windows, which reduces heat gain and protects your furnishings from damaging UV rays.

As the largest company of its kind in Arizona, Sun City Awning & Patio custom builds all their products. They’ve grown through their reputation of being the best and offer quality products at a fair price. If you’re ready to enjoy your patio or need to block the sun, call for a no obligation, free estimate.

DEALING WITH A DOGGY DISPUTE

Here’s the scoop on poop

Q: I’ve been letting my dog out in the backyard for years to do his business. Lately, my new next-door neighbor has been complaining about the smell coming from my backyard. I haven’t noticed anything; I think he just doesn’t like my dog. Now he’s threatening to call the city. What can I do?

A: It’s true that in warm weather, the smell of fresh dog poop carries a long way. If your neighbor is trying to enjoy a nice morning in his backyard at the same time your dog does his business, the two are bound to cross aromatic paths. Try to get more details on when he notices the smell. Would it be possible to compromise by letting your dog out an hour earlier in the morning or later at night? Also, ask yourself if you’re picking up after your dog adequately. If not, waste can quickly litter your backyard, so stay on top of it!

HELP FOR ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS Here are some great reads to stimulate you to success

Before Happiness: The 5 Hidden Keys to Achieving Success, Spreading Happiness, and Sustaining Positive Change

by Shawn Achor “Positive change is possible,” writes Harvard-trained happiness researcher Shawn Achor, “once you recognize that happiness comes before success. When we begin to see our world more positively and realize we can overcome challenges, we summon the drive to achieve personal and professional goals.”

Nine Things Successful People Do Differently

by Heidi Grant Halvorson Social psychologist and motivation expert Heidi Grant Halvorson focuses her research on why some people give up when things get challenging while others persevere. She believes anyone can reach their goals using scientifically-tested strategies to succeed.

Halvorson presents studies showing that people who anticipate obstacles, use positive thinking and have a plan to persevere will outperform those who just dream about a desired outcome.

Creating Your Best Life: The Ultimate Life List Guide

by Caroline Miller Life coach and positive psychology expert Caroline Miller offers a research-based guide to setting and hitting your goals through interactive assessments and quizzes. Discover how to coach yourself to set goals and create physical and social environments that will foster success. When you hit one goal, Miller explains, the happiness you feel has a “spillover effect” that will help you achieve additional goals.

The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines Into Massive Success & Happiness

by Jeff Olson The key to successfully achieving your goals is to take small, simple actions and compound them over time. For example, bringing your lunch from home instead of eating out for one day makes no difference; but do that every day and you’ll save hundreds of dollars per year. According to Olson, it all adds up to big results you can achieve!

TRENDS TO TRY

HEALTH

Add these new ideas into your health routine

Some new health and wellness trends are taking center stage this year. If you know what “athleisure” means (or you are wearing fractal-patterned leggings), you probably already know some of them.

Prioritize recovery More people are taking muscle recovery seriously after hard workouts, says national fitness trainer Chris Freytag.

“People still love to work out, but more people are moving to things like foam rolling, yoga, acupuncture and cupping.

People are choosing these more natural ways to take care of their muscles after a hard workout rather than taking an anti-inflammatory,” she says.

Refresh happy hour Going sans-alcohol is the new cool. Look for more bars and restaurants that feature fun, healthy “mocktails”— cocktail-like beverages made with fresh seasonal ingredients but minus any alcohol. More people are

Time for a new roof?

touting the health benefits of living permanently on the wagon and this is leading to social gatherings with a focus on connections over cocktails. Abstaining from alcohol can mean improved mental clarity, less body fat, a better mood, enhanced quality of sleep and improved relationships. If that doesn’t make you want to put down your glass of red wine, this might: Some experts say your life’s purpose can sometimes be masked by even moderate alcohol consumption.

Going dry may be the new non-smoking.

Get fit anytime “In today’s world individuals sometimes struggle to be as active as they’d like to be,” says Chuck Runyon, CEO and founder of Anytime Fitness. “Our job as fitness facilitators is to help others lead healthier, more active lives whenever they can find the time—be it in the gym, at work, at home or while running errands.”

Unplug with technology Start by downloading and using some of the great meditation apps available, such as Calm, Buddhify and Headspace. There are apps that remind you to breathe and whole gadgets made just to monitor your vitals for stress, such as The WellBe. Our amazing, addictive devices can actually be used to cut stress and anxiety.

“Advocates for YOUR Home Improvement”

Arizona’s hot summers and monsoons can cause major damage to your roofs exterior and underlayment. Don’t wait until you have a leak, call Sun City Roofing to inspect your homes roof today! Winter residents should have their roof checked to help prevent costly repairs.

SERVING THE VALLEY SINCE 1974!

How old is your roof?

Your roof is one of the most important components of your home. If your roof is over 10 years old, if it has multiple layers or missing shingles or tiles, if there is physical damage, or if you have leaks it’s time to call Sun City Roofing.

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.”

GET FIRED UP

LIFESTYLE

Five ways guys can enhance their lives

Summer is here and it’s a time to celebrate and get together with friends and family. Travel, job pressures and entertaining family and friends can take their toll.

With so much happening, you may feel uninspired and run down. Follow these five tips to stay fired up and feeling good.

Mind your muscles If you’re trying to lose weight, try a longer, slower jog, which can burn more calories than a quick sprint. Go the opposite route with a shorter, faster run if you want a metabolism booster instead. To build muscle endurance, try lifting lighter weights for higher reps.

Not only can you get stronger in the long run, but your technique might also improve.

Go the distance Make time in your busy schedule for your partner in the bedroom. Good sex can help improve both your mood

Work smarter Instead of working harder to conquer your workload, work smarter. It is usually more efficient to work one task all the way to the end instead of trying to multitask. And don’t be afraid to take back your calendar—if that useless meeting is wasting an hour of your time each week, it’s time to cut it from your schedule.

Nerd out You’ve heard the saying, “knowledge is power,” so make the most out of learning opportunities. Whether you read an article about the latest tech gadget, take a history class or learn a skill, education is an easy and rewarding way to stay invigorated about the world around you.

Reprioritize your to-do list Make time for those who are most important to you, even if that means turning off your phone and signing off email for a few hours. The moments you spend with friends and family will be those you’ll remember forever, so don’t miss them. Everything else can wait.
