  • Downsizing for 
    Downsizing for Learn how to navigate the emotional process and reap its benets. Moving to a senior living community brings benefits like freedom from home maintenance, more social opportunities and access to wellness and fitness programs and healthcare. Senior living offers many lifestyle rewards but often within a smaller private living space when compared to residents’ previous homes. Many older adults eager to move to a senior living community are overwhelmed by the challenge of downsizing. It’s a totally natural and normal response. The good news is that there is plenty of advice and tips from those who have successfully lived through the downsizing process and the professionals who helped guide them. How to Successfully Downsize for a Simpler and Fuller Lifestyle Be Aware of Emotions Surveying a lifetime of possessions to decide what to keep and what to let go of can be an emotional process. It typically goes a lot slower than people expect. Start the downsizing process as soon as possible and allow plenty of time to get the job done, including time for a few trips down memory lane. Tip…Go room by room instead of tackling the entire house in one day. Pick Must Have Pieces Choose the most necessary furniture items first like a bed, dresser, small kitchen table with a couple of chairs, couch and an end table. Then, if there’s still room, add extra pieces. Some may want to buy new furniture, but using existing furnishings can make the new space feel more like home. Tip…Consider a smaller bed for extra living space.

    With careful planning, a The and diminutive post-war cottage ART CRAFT is lifted and crafted into a of TRANSFORMATION historically inspired, original home with an open floor Water cascades from the heavily wooded hillside, past the Studio overlooking the house and deck with a Sonoma basalt stone fireplace. The First Bedroom plan, hand crafted details balcony offers views of the garden from above. and lush gardens. 1 House, patio and yard. Kitchen with original 1949 cabinets and tile. The property. Cramped, dark, and in need of upgrades, the 900 square foot two-bedroom house in Marin County was nestled against the foot of Mount Tamalpais in a heavily wooded neighborhood of modest post-war houses. Second growth redwoods on the sloping hillside, site coverage restrictions, and the lot size restricted the buildable area for most conventional expansion possibilities. Outdoor living area was limited to a small concrete patio. A dark gravel yard offered the only useable area – inhospitable for commonly used landscaping materials. The design challenge. Double the house size, re-configure the floor plan for a 3-bedroom residence with home office, and expand living areas. Connect interior spaces with the exterior. Bring plenty of light into the house. Solve drainage problems that had plagued the low lying floor level. Open up tree canopy for light and create outdoor living areas with fresh ideas for the suburban backyard. And do it all on a modest budget. The plan. Acting as architect and contractor, HOOD made the daring decision to lift the entire the house eleven feet off its deteriorated foundation and to create a new first floor of open living spaces, kitchen and office.

  • Comparison of Nurse Attended and Unattended Automated Office Blood
    Journal of Human Hypertension www.nature.com/jhh ARTICLE Comparison of nurse attended and unattended automated office blood pressure with conventional measurement techniques in clinical practice ✉ Elvira Fanelli 1,2 , Silvia Di Monaco1,2, Marco Pappaccogli1, Elisabetta Eula1, Chiara Fasano1, Chiara Bertello1, Franco Veglio1 and Franco Rabbia1 © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited 2021 Accuracy in blood pressure measurement is critical for proper hypertension diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice. Automated office blood pressure (AOBP) can simplify the measurement process, reducing human error and minimizing the white-coat effect in the unattended mode. The aim of this study was to compare AOBP, both unattended and nurse attended, with conventional office and out-of-office blood pressure measurement techniques. Four different methods of blood pressure measurement were performed in a cohort of hypertensive patients: conventional office blood pressure (OBP), unattended automated office blood pressure (uAOBP), nurse attended automated office blood pressure (nAOBP), and home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM). uAOBP and nAOBP were conducted with the same rigorous standardized procedure. We enrolled 118 consecutive patients. nAOBP values were slightly higher than uAOBP ones (respectively 132.8/73.3 ± 19.4/12.9 and 129.2/71.1 ± 19.0/12.3 mmHg), even if the difference was influenced by order of execution of AOBP measurement. nAOBP was significantly lower than HBPM and OBP (mean values 135.2/80.9 ± 16.6/8.1 and 140.9/84.6 ± 18.7/10.8 mmHg, respectively). AOBP, either attended or unattended, provides lower values than conventional OBP. uAOBP and nAOBP values showed small differences, even if they are not completely interchangeable.

  • Top Ten Things You Can Do to Green Your Home
    Top 10 things you can do to “green” your home, apartment, or small business 1 Behavior change 6 Reduce water consumption 2 DIY energy assessments 7 System maintenance 3 Upgrade appliances & lighting 8 Insulate 4 Purchase green products 9 Upgrade and seal windows 5 Recycling/material reuse 10 Purchase renewable energy Behavior Change: You can reduce your energy bill and reduce your carbon footprint without paying a dime. Your energy and water bills are directly related to how an individual, family, or employee behaves. If you want to reduce your bills you need to look at how you “live” or “work” within your 1 home or office. Some suggested ways to reduce your consumption are: turn off lights when not in use, turn off water when brushing teeth, adjust the set point on your thermostat when not home, and try to open windows when exterior temperatures are comfortable. http://www.energyquest.ca.gov/saving_energy/index.html Do It Yourself (DIY) Energy Assessments: To get an idea about how your home, apartment, or small office compares to others there are several simple and free computer programs you can use. 2 Performing an energy assessment of your living or working space helps you understand your savings if an upgrade was made. http://hes.lbl.gov/consumer/ Upgrade appliances & artificial lighting: If your refrigerator, stove, or dishwasher is over 15 years it might be worth upgrading to an Energy Star appliance. Energy star appliances meet strict guidelines set by the EPA and typically are 20-30% more efficient than current federal standards. Another simple and inexpensive way to reduce your electricity bill and carbon footprint is to replace 3 incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs.

  • Still Room BOOK
    Still Room BOOK Charles and Lola Wilcox Botanical illustrations by Melissa Gray Cover illustration and book layout by Sue Lion Audio Reading: Five actors read Still Room Book, accompanied by the music of the Boulder Renaissance Consort. Introduction Here we tell the stories of three generations of people whose lives center around Dunnestoke Manor – its fields, gardens and, in particular, its still room. During the summer that these stories take place, Queen Elizabeth is aging, and William Shakespeare is in mid-career. Dunnestoke Manor is outside London, but only half a day’s carriage ride (in good weather when the roads are dry) from the main city. ose who live at or near the manor will tell us about the times they live in, with the dangers of religion, politics, and plague. e Dunnestokes are practical; they made the change of religion from Roman Catholic to Church of England in Elizabeth’s father’s time. Now in a time of an expanding, educated middle class, they are experimenting with new income possibilities, both in the nearby town and in London. ey teach us a little of their still room craft, and share with us some of their recipes, or – as they call them – receipts. Quotes from Shakespeare referencing herb and still room craft serve as transitions between the stories. 1 Timothy t h e B r e w e r …histwochamberlains WillIwithwineandwassailsoconvince atmemory,thewarderofthebrain, Shallbeafume,andthereceiptofreason Alimbeconly.

  • A Tour of Blakesley Hall
    Blakesley Hall Family Social Story A Tour of This guide tells me all about the historic house called Blakesley Hall. If I would like to know more about the Visitor Centre and Gardens at Blakesley Hall, as well as the people who work there, I can use the separate guide entitled ‘My Visit to Blakesley Hall’. This is a photo of Blakesley Hall. This is the main entrance to Blakesley Hall. An Enabler will let me in here so I can start looking around. Once I have gone through the front door I will arrive in the Cross Passage, a big corridor which leads me to several rooms. If I walk halfway down the Cross Passage and turn left. I will be in the Great Hall, on the ground floor. This is the Great Hall. The Great Hall would have been used for all sorts of things in Tudor times, but today it is set for dinner. I can touch the objects on the table in the Great Hall, and an Enabler or a Volunteer will be able to tell me what they were all used for. At the far end of the Great Hall I might go in two rooms: The Great Parlour and the Little Parlour. This is the Great Parlour. The Great Parlour is where people had dinner parties. There is lots of pretend food on the table to show me what it would have looked like. This is the Little Parlour, which is also at the far end of the Great Hall. The Little Parlour is where the women of the household might have spent their time.
