WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT MY

NEUROPATHY? Have you been told there is no treatment for your neuropathy? Is the therapy you are doing now not working? Our dedicated team of experienced providers offers effective treatment for neuropathy that can significantly decrease and possibly eliminate your symptoms, and help you enjoy life again.

The treatment that is provided at Array Medical Center has four main goals: 1.) Increase blood flow 2.) Stimulate small fiber nerves 3.) Decrease brain-based pain 4.) Stabilize the nerve cells The treatment to increase blood flow utilizes a specialized low-level light therapy (not to be confused with laser therapy) using light emitting diode technology. This technology was originally developed by NASA to assist in increasing blood flow.

The low level light therapy is like watering a plant. The light therapy will allow the blood vessels to grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. It’s like adding water to a plant and seeing the roots grow deeper and deeper.

The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.

CALL OUR OFFICE TODAY TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO DETERMINE IF YOUR NEUROPATHY CAN BE TREATED.

The medical professionals at ARRAY MEDICAL CENTER, have been successfully helping patients return to an active lifestyle for over 25 years.

RESIDENTIAL SPECIALISTS FOR ALL YOUR INTERIOR & EXTERIOR PROJECTS

It’s hard to believe another year has passed, and we have entered a new decade with so many possibilities.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve decided to focus my New Year’s resolutions on things I can actually improve. Because, truth be told, I’m honestly tired of the pressure of how I’m going to make myself a whole new being in the next year.

DELETING DEBT

MONEY

Tips for eliminating credit card debt and getting in control

Target just one card first If you’re carrying balances on multiple cards, it can be a long haul to wipe out those debts, so give yourself a boost of instant gratification right from the start.

Ask yourself: What short-term financial goal will make me feel as though I’m making meaningful progress on debt reduction? If your answer is “Having one card totally paid off,” then throw as much money as you can toward the card with the lowest balance first. If your answer is “Boosting my credit score,” then tackle the card with the highest utilization rate (that’s your balance divided by the card’s limit).

Ask your creditors for lower interest rates Often a simple phone call to the issuer is all it takes to get a reduced rate—provided that you have good credit (a score of 730 or higher) and you are a long-term customer who makes payments on time. You could get a percentage point or two shaved off, which can add up to hundreds of dollars saved annually. One tip to try: If you’ve been offered a lower rate by a competitor, tell a customer service rep from your card issuer. There’s a chance they’ll match the offer.

Transfer your balance (cautiously) It’s tempting to move a balance from a card with a high interest rate to a card with a substantially lower one. And potentially that’s a smart move; you can save hundreds of dollars a year. But be careful. You should transfer a balance only if you’re committed to paying off the debt within an introductory low-interestrate window and to making monthly payments on time. Otherwise your rate could skyrocket, possibly ending up higher than the one you just got rid of.

Make two minimum payments each month Card issuers typically charge interest on a daily basis, so the sooner you make a payment, the faster your average daily balance is reduced, which translates into fewer dollars in interest that you ultimately pay.

If you’re on a tight budget, go ahead and pay the minimum due each month, then try to make the same payment again two weeks later. Keep making a payment of the initial minimum-due amount twice a month until your debt is paid off.

Talk a little less, and touch more For couples that have a hard time communicating their emotions, a big hug can go a long way. Resolve to hold hands every time you watch TV or walk down the street and hug each other every day.

STRONGER TOGETHER

Resolutions couples should make

LOVE

Alternate who’s in charge of planning date nights When it comes time to decide what to do, get away from group thinking. Take turns planning dates, and keep your plans a surprise until the night of the date to maintain mystery and excitement.

This time of year, it’s natural to focus inward, thinking about healthy new habits, self-improvement and professional advancement. Consider channeling part of that fired-up New Year’s spirit into your bond with your partner, too!

Take a break mid-fight When things get heated, stop and say, “I love you.” It will diffuse emotion.

Those words remind you both of the big picture.

Ask more questions And pay attention to the answers.

Resolving to be more inquisitive helps both of you become more engaged and the give-and-take pushes you to be thoughtful about your own day, routine and work.

Compliment, praise and thank Keep things more heavily weighted on the positive. It’s easy, especially as the years go by, to forget to thank your partner for the little things they’ve always done.

Turn complaints into questions Before you blurt out exactly what’s on your mind— think about your intent. What are you trying to say? If you want to spend more down time with your partner, say, “I miss you! I’ve been feeling lonely.” This may not solve a workaholic’s habits, but it’s more likely to start a healthy conversation than a complaint.

Make time for sex Sex (not to mention intimacy) is good for your health, your mood and your relationship. Feel like you can never find the time? Plan time for sex. What you lack in spontaneity, you might make up for in anticipation!

Downton Abbey (PG) When news that the king and queen of England are coming to Downton Abbey breaks, the Crawleys and staff embark on an exhaustive list of preparations for the royal visit. But the royals show up with their own staff—cook, butlers, housekeepers, the lot—and Mr. and Mrs. Bates team with Mrs. Patmore, Mrs. Hughes and even Mr. Carson to take back the house from the arrogant interlopers. Meantime, there’s plenty of intrigue upstairs involving a longstanding disagreement between the dowager countess Violet and a Crawley relative; Tom Branson, who is possibly suspected of still having Irish sympathies; and more of all the much beloved characters. Written by series creator Julian Fellowes and starring the original cast, including Maggie Smith!

However, they both have the same root word, “kara,” which means empty. “Oke” means “voice” and “te” means “hand;” hence, “karaoke” is “empty voice,” and “karate” is “empty hand.”

Big events that occurred during the month of January

January 7, 1927 The Harlem Globetrotters basketball team travels west from Chicago to play their first game, in Hinckley, Illinois. Coach Abe Saperstein decided to promote his new team’s racial makeup by naming them after Harlem, the famous black neighborhood of New York City.

January 9, 1861 A Union merchant ship is fired upon as it tries to deliver supplies to Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina, in the first exchange of shots between North and South. The shots were fired by gunner George E. Haynsworth, a cadet at The Citadel in Charleston.

January 8, 1835 President Andrew Jackson achieves his goal of entirely paying off the United States’ national debt. It was the only time in United States history that the national debt stood at zero, and it precipitated one of the worst financial crises in American history, the Panic of 1837.

January 12, 1932 Ophelia Wyatt Caraway of Arkansas becomes the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate. Caraway had been appointed earlier to fill the vacancy left by her late husband, Thaddeus Horatio Caraway.

TIP 1 Eat a hearty breakfast before heading out to the airport. Pack a piece or two of whole fruit or a portion of nuts for snacking, and bring an empty water bottle so you can make it through airport security and fill the bottle when you are at the gate.

TIP 2 A potato peeler plus a bar of chocolate makes for a very fancy garnish for cake tops or even for hot drinks.

TIP 3 Paper lunch bags make excellent receptacles for cat litter waste.

They are much more environmentally friendly than plastic bags, and can be folded down and placed directly into an outside trash can. The bags are easily stored near the litter box, because they lay flat.

TIP 4 Potatoes can be boiled whole, then plunged into icy water briefly when cooked. The skins should slip right off.

No need to spend all that time peeling potatoes!

GROWTH

Let go of anger Letting go of anger is easier said than done. While anger is a perfectly normal emotion, you can’t let it fester.

When this happens, you may make unwise decisions.

ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT? Become your best self!

Be honest and direct If you want to be a better person in either your personal or professional life, always tell the truth and state as clearly as possible what you are trying to convey. Learn to articulate your thoughts, feelings, and ideas in an open and honest manner.

We’ve all made mistakes in life, but they create opportunities for growth if you let them! Here are some ideas for being your best version of yourself.

Compliment yourself Every morning before you go on with your daily routine, take a couple of minutes to give yourself a compliment. Whether you compliment your outfit, or how you recently completed a task using your unique skill sets, giving yourself a little emotional boost will make you happy.

And, when you’re happy with yourself, that emotion can be contagious to those around you.

Be yourself Focus your attention on aligning yourself with your values and beliefs, establish your identity, build courage, create boundaries, and find focus and direction.

Be respectful Be respectful of others’ time, thoughts, ideas, lifestyles, feelings, work and everything else. You don’t have to agree, but people have a right to their opinions.

Don’t make excuses Blaming your spouse, boss or clients is fruitless and won’t get you very far. Instead of pointing fingers and making excuses about why you aren’t happy or successful in your personal or professional life, own your mistakes and learn from them.

Surprise people How good does it feel to make someone smile? Pretty good, right? Surprise your loved ones or co-workers now and then, with a gift, a night out on the town, or by offering help when you know they could use it.

Tips to make your life more manageable in 2020

Take the stairs Take 10 minutes to run up the stairs in your office or home. A study found that tired women who climbed stairs for 10 minutes got a bigger energy boost than those who had the caffeine equivalent of a can of soda or half a cup of coffee.

Start doing yoga with your partner A morning couples’ class could make the afternoon more fun. Experts at Loyola’s Sexual Wellness Clinic believe partner yoga helps couples get more comfortable with their bodies, a boon for better sex.

Delegate more chores Money can’t buy happiness—but it can buy time. A study found that people who spent money on timesaving services, such getting someone to clean the garage, obtained greater life satisfaction and happiness than those who bought material goods.

Explore new hobbies Try Ethiopian food, attend a ballet or take a painting class—whatever feels fun. Researchers found that those who complain of major boredom are roughly twice as likely to die from heart disease.

Play upbeat music Research shows that blasting any happy-making tune can work multiple mind-body wonders, including reducing pain during exercise, elevating mood and lowering stress.

Go to bed on time, with your partner A study found that women who got more sleep had more desire the next day and an easier time becoming aroused. Every additional hour they slept increased their likelihood of having sex by 14%.

Give yourself more compliments Positive self-talk can help you focus on what’s good in your life. Research shows that a little vitamin G (for gratitude) can make you feel happier.

Drink up You’re more likely to be dehydrated following a short night of sleep, so down extra water on those days.

THE RETURN OF THE PAPER PLANNER Going back to basics enhances productivity

In our digital age, you may go days without using a pen and paper, but there are many reasons to skip Siri and return to writing your own notes to enhance your growth.

important life moments, opportunities and areas of growth along the way.

• Having a visual representation of your schedule will provide you with a sense of control that is hard to obtain while looking at the small screen on your smart device. Some say the most organized professionals are those who use multiple tools to keep track of their goals, objectives and responsibilities.

• Going old-school may also help you identify chunks for free time you can use to accomplish personal needs while heading to an area that is not on your normal weekend route.

Did you know that: • Taking notes can help you retain more information, suggests a study from Princeton and UCLA, as taking notes makes you more likely to process the information and reframe it in your own words.

• Taking notes will exude professionalism, a positive mindset and encourage your client to think that you have taken this opportunity seriously. Looking professional and staying organized are both wins!

• Jotting comments in your planner allows you to become the publisher of your own story—capturing

• Tracking life in one place (off of your digital device) can also help prevent committing to things you can’t do well.

Start the New Year with a flare. Find yourself a favorite pen and a cool planner, and get back to basics. It may have been a little while since you relied on paper, but you may find that writing things down motivates you to keep better track of all of life’s little details.

What does and does not belong in the medicine cabinet

HOME

Your toothbrush While it’s tempting to keep your toothbrush on the sink, inside the medicine cabinet is a far better place for it to stay germ-free. A 2005 study revealed that particles from flushing the toilet can reach up to 2.7 feet away.

A first aid kit and supplies The medicine cabinet is an ideal spot for a first aid kit, giving you easy access to all of your triage supplies in one place.

A good kit should contain bandages, antibiotic cream, instant heating and cooling packs, hydrocortisone, anti-itch cream, gauze, hydrogen peroxide, etc.

A digital thermometer Digital thermometers are made to withstand heat, so they’re perfectly safe to store in a hot bathroom. When taking temperatures, however, consider moving to a cooler room.

Tweezers, nails clippers and scissors Smaller tools tend to get lost under the sink or in vanity drawers. Keeping them in the medicine cabinet makes them much easier to find, especially when you’re in a pinch and need to remove a splinter or hangnail.

Things to never store in your medicine cabinet: Medicine A medicine cabinet is actually one of the worst places to store medication as heat and moisture can cause pills/capsules to become less potent.

Razors Moisture and humidity can cause the blades to rust before you use them.

Vitamin C Vitamin C, sometimes labeled as ascorbic acid, is a very popular ingredient in skincare products. Unfortunately, heat reduces its potency, so store those serums and moisturizers somewhere else.

Anything preservative-free Products labeled natural, organic or chemical-free tend to be made without preservatives, which are necessary for withstanding heat and moisture.

FOR ALL YOUR PAINTING NEEDS 30 Years Experience

VETERANS POST

Got an exchange or commisary near you that you haven’t been able to use? That might change soon. Beginning Jan. 1, the Department of Defense is expanding the list of those eligible to use all the services: Exchanges, commissary, and morale, welfare and recreation locations on bases.

The new list includes Purple Heart recipients, former prisoners of war, veterans with serviceconnected disabilities and those who are the primary family caregivers of eligible veterans. While you’ve been able to shop the Exchange online since 2017, now you can go to the brick and mortar locations.

To use the facilities, you’ll need to present your Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC). It will need to specify your eligibility status. (This is not the same as your Veterans Identification card.)

Caregivers will need to show their eligibility letter, which was mailed from the Office of Community Care. Note that you’ll be dinged a small amount if you use a credit or debit card.

Details can be reviewed at www.militaryonesource. mil/expanding-access.

Skip caffeine the whole day It’s better to forgo coffee, tea, or any other caffeineTHIN CRUST PIZZA fueled drink of choice. Caffeine can increase anxiety or make you nauseated, which will make it harder to sleep during the flight.

Always pack a travel sleeping kit Be sure to include an eye mask, ear plugs, a mini toothbrush, toothpaste, lavender oil, makeup removing sheets, face cream, a sheet face mask, a hair tie, lip balm and a neck pillow.

Skip the booze You’re already dehydrated from being on an airplane, and several glasses of wine or cans of beer will have your bladder on overdrive. One alcoholic beverage might be okay to ease your nerves, but anything more is bad news.

Splurge on an upgrade if you can Having more legroom and space can help you doze off.

Make a bid on a last-minute upgrade to business if the option is available. Even if it is only $100, if no one else puts in an offer, you could be upgraded, just like that.

Invest in noise-canceling headphones If you’ve tried ear plugs on a flight and they just don’t cut it for you, it may be time to invest in something higher-quality. There are many options out there, but one of the top rated is from Bose, featuring comfortable ear coverings that make it easy to lean on a pillow on the side of a plane.

Avoid the screen To rest your eyes and your mind and put you closer to the sleep mode, avoid the screen time on the flight. Give yourself less to think about and let go of, not more!

Do your bedtime routine Whatever you do at home, do on the flight. Your mind is powerful, and you can trick it to make it seem more like you are at home.

Choose a window seat The window seat is the better choice for sleep because you have the edge of the plane to lean against. You’ll also avoid being distracted by other passengers.

PAW’S CORNER

IMPROVING THE LIVES OF ANIMALS

Staying connected to pets after they’re gone

Q: At one time I had two dogs, Sadie and Shadow, a cat named Harley and a sassy budgie named Petey. They’ve each passed on as the years went by, and finally in September, Harley crossed the rainbow bridge, the last of my pets to go. It’s been a sad time, but I want to make life better for other animals as best I can. To that end, my resolutions include: Spending one afternoon a week volunteering at the local animal shelter; donating money to organizations that help rehabilitate injured wildlife; and taking care of friends’ pets when they need help. Any other suggestions?

A: I think your resolutions are fantastic, and they will keep you busier than you think. Giving our time and energy to care for other beings can bring us some amazing rewards. It’s also a wonderful way to celebrate the lives of your beloved pets, and can help as you move through your grief at their loss.

Crown molding It’s odd how many people look up when deciding if the house is right for them. That’s why so many realtors suggest adding crown molding. It’s a simple addition that adds a touch of charm and makes a big statement about the value of the home.

Whatever you’re passionate about, you know hobbies cost money. For example, people who haven’t shaken the travel bug need to negotiate time off work, pay for lodging, airfare and more. For anyone who likes to roll up their sleeves and isn’t afraid of taking on a new house project, the DIY hobby can actually save you money. Homeowners getting ready to make a move and want to get top dollar for their property can take on a number of home renovation projects that will increase the value of their home. If you love the satisfaction of fixing things and are hoping to get a high offer on your house, here are five DIY projects that may increase your home’s resale value.

Add backsplash Buyers pay a lot of attention to the kitchen and the bathroom. One of the most eye-catching effects you can add is a backsplash around the sink and the counter space.

DIY

Increase the resale value of your home

New light fixtures Lighting has a tremendous effect on how potential buyers perceive your house. While it’s important to keep the rooms and hallways well lit, you’ll want to make sure the source that produces the light is also stunning.

Front yard Backyards are great, but when you’re selling your home, the front yard is where buyers make their first impression. Go beyond well-trimmed hedges and green lawns by building decorative fixtures such as a bench, flower crates made of reclaimed wood or other projects that combine craftsmanship and taste.

Flooring There are few home buyers out there who prefer carpet to wood floors, so rip that carpet up! Depending on your skill level, you can choose to cut, sand, stain and install the floorboards yourself, or invest in interlocking boards that snap in place.

CAN’T SHAKE IT?

HEALTH

You might be making your cold worse!

The average American gets two to three colds a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Most colds last only three to five days, but you can still be congested or have a cough for up to two weeks. Here are some mistakes that can make things worse.

Not backing off intensity at the gym Exercise can be a mental godsend when you’re sick, lifting your spirits at the very least. But don’t take this as permission to give it your all when you’re sick, or you could make yourself worse. If you have a fever, cough, chest congestion or upset stomach, hold off on all exercise until those symptoms resolve.

Telling yourself you’re not sick If you’ve always subscribed to the mind-over-matter philosophy when it comes to recovering from colds, give it up. Pretending you’re not sick might not encourage you to dial back your activities, which means you could

overexert yourself, thus making symptoms worse and delaying recovery.

Skimping on sleep When you’re sick, sleep becomes even more critical.

Inadequate sleep can reduce the function of the immune system and prolong recovery from colds. The problem is, cold symptoms like coughing and congestion can keep you awake when you’re trying to sleep. If that’s the case, try using over-the-counter medications to sleep better.

Consuming alcohol When you’re under the weather, avoid all alcohol. Why? Because, alcohol directly suppresses your immune system and tends to be dehydrating, thus harming your immune system and prolonging your illness. Alcohol can also interfere with your sleep, which is a crucial part of

recovery.

Overusing decongestants Decongestants can certainly make you feel better, and even sleep better, which can shorten the course of your cold. Using a nasal decongestant for longer than one or two days, however, could spell trouble. When used beyond three days, experts say topical decongestant nasal sprays can make your congestion worse.

SQUISH & CRUNCH ARE NOT CARPET SOUNDS BUT SOFT IS!!!

Hello my name is Paige O’Dowd and all my friends thought that I was crazy getting into such a male-dominated field but my answer to them was who knows clean better than a woman. If you don’t believe that, try to remember what your spouse’s home looked like before you married them.

I’m a mother of six and a proud owner of nine rescue dogs, so I know clean. I promise I will deliver a clean like you’ve never seen with the safest and most effective method ever developed.

Jackie M. Top notch company!! Salesman Ken

handled all details including things other company’s want us to take care of. From the beginning to the end it was a flawless experience. Great customer service. Mike and Chad were nothing but professional. We are ABSOLUTELY happy with the end result. It was exactly what we expected. We would highly recommend Patio Partners for your patio cover company.

Kathy J. We had Patio Partners install an above window lattice and a courtyard awning.

We are extremely pleased with both.

This is the SECOND time we have used them and couldn’t be happier. Chad and Mike were complete professionals.

HAVE YOUR A/C SYSTEM INSTALLED

BY THE HIGHEST RATED TEAM IN ARIZONA!

“We had two... air conditioners installed by... Proskill. Every step of the way was exactly as described with no issues what so ever. It was impressive to watch the skilled installation team. The process was excellently choreographed... No mess no fuss. The new systems operate differently... both compressors and fans run at variable rates. Makes for a much more comfortable house... A business owner myself, I can say with conviction that Proskill is a professionally run company.” - Kevin & Angela S

“The ProSkill Team knocked out a two system HVAC removal and install... The team was highly skilled... They left the home clean and with a fully operational Trane HVAC system up and running.” - Rich C.

“Jake, Heath, Kyle, and Travis were all very nice to work with and very informative regardless of the stupid questions I might have asked. All of them had nothing but good things to say about your company and I really found that refreshing especially since I was once a business owner.

They all liked working with one another and TEAM spirit was obvious. I will recommend your company and Team every chance I have. I enjoyed experience.”

- Charles L.

“Jake and Heath know what they are doing.

I would hire them in a heartbeat. They are pleasant, clean & professional. They communicate everything that is relevant to what is being done. Do not think twice, hire them to install your new a/c. You will not be sorry.” - Bev N. “ProSkill has a great team of professinals from start to finish. I replaced both AC units and was amazed at the quality of service, top notch. They don’t cut corners and provide a thorough understanding of all services included.

A week following installation, they send another technician who does a thorough review of the work done as an added measure of top quality workmanship.” - Carol H

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.”
