We would love to welcome everyone to November! This month is all about spending time with family and friends. We have some special holidays coming up, like Veteran’s Day, World Kindness day and family holidays like Thanksgiving, where we can be reminded of what we have and enjoy each other’s company. We encourage everyone to take time to appreciate what they’re thankful for and to make wonderful memories with their loved ones. Let’s celebrate this season of togetherness and all the special moments that bring us closer.

It’s Halloween Week!
Last of the decor is up and collecting candy for all the little Trick or Treating ghosts and princesses! There’s still time to have some fun and have a creative day with some arts and crafts. Here’s some fun simple crafts we can all do together!
HANDPRINT SPIDERS:
Apply black paint to your palm and four fingers leaving out the thumb. Place palm onto a piece of paper. Turn the paper 180° and print again making sure the palm overlaps. Add some googly eyes using either paint or stickers.
PAINT A PUMPKIN:
Pumpkin carving can be messy, difficult, and sometimes dangerous.
Instead, use some permanent markers or acrylic paint to make your pumpkin look like a monster, clown, or other Halloween character. The smaller “pie pumpkins” or even the mini-pumpkins will work perfectly for this craft.
Don’t have any pumpkins?
Grab some paper plates to use as your pumpkin and paint them orange, yellow, or green. Once the plates are dry, cut out shapes from additional plates or colored paper and glue them on for the eyes, nose, and mouth to create scary, happy, or wacky faces. Don’t forget to add a green stem to complete your pumpkin!
Happy Halloween!

October is Emotional Wellness Month, a time to focus on caring for your mental and emotional health. It is also worth noting that October also has World Mental Health Day, a reminder that mental well-being is essential at every stage of life. Mental health is just as important as physical health. It shapes how we think, feel, and act each day. It also influences how we manage stress, connect with others, and make decisions in challenging moments.
Here are three simple ways to support your mental well-being:
1. Make Time for Self-Care: Little moments of joy can make a big difference. Read a good book, take a walk, listen to music, practice mindfulness, or enjoy a favorite hobby. Activities that bring relaxation and fulfillment can boost your mood and restore balance.
2. Stay Connected: Strong social connections are essential for emotional health. Spend time with family and friends, share meaningful conversations, and seek out community. Feeling connected helps ease loneliness and provides encouragement during difficult times.
3. Support Your Body to Support Your Mind: Your physical and mental health go hand in hand. Aim for regular exercise, a balanced diet, and plenty of rest. Moving your body releases feel-good endorphins, healthy foods fuel your brain, and good sleep keeps emotions steady.
Remember that mental health improvement is an ongoing process. This October, take time to nurture your emotional wellness and encourage loved ones to do the same. If challenges ever feel overwhelming, reach out to a trusted professional for guidance and support.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to focus on education, early detection, and support.
When found early, breast cancer can often be treated successfully.
Be mindtul of changes such as new lumps, swelling, dimpling, redness, ni**le discharge, or pain.
While changes may not indicate cancer, it is strongly recommended that you check with your physician.
Regular self-exams, clinical exams, and mammograms are important:
• Women 40-49 should talk with their physician about when to begin screening.
• Women 50-74 at average risk should have a mammogram
every two years.
• Mammogram Day, the third Friday in October, is a reminder to schedule your screening.
Prevention steps include staying active, keeping a healthy weight, limiting alcohol, not smoking, and keeping up with routine check-ups.
Show your support this month by wearing pink. Wear Pink Day is October 25 this year and many people take part in “Wear Pink Wednesdays.” It is a simple way to honor survivors, remember loved ones, and spread awareness.

We can all Recognize the signs.
Heart attacks look and feel different in women than they do in men. Both men and women may feel chest pain when having a heart attack, but women are more likely to also experience shortness of breath, nausea or vomiting, and pain in the back, neck, or jaw.
Heart attack symptoms may include:
* Chest pain or discomfort, usually in the center or left side of the chest, that lasts for more than a few minutes or that goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain.
* Pain or discomfort in the jaw, neck, or backing
* Feeling weak, light-headed, faint, or a cold sweat.
* Shortness of breath.
* Pain or discomfort in one or both arms or shoulders.
Be safe, not sorry. Many heart attacks start slowly with relatively mild pain.
Make an agreement with loved ones that you will call 911 as soon as anyone experiences any of the signs of a heart attack.
Keep a record of what medicines your loved ones are taking, what medicines they’re allergic to, and who they want contacted in case of an emergency.
Being prepared now may just save a life later.

Every September 11th gives us all time to reflect on the devastating attacks that took nearly 3,000 lives in New York City. We commemorate those who we lost and give thanks to the brave first responders and fellow Americans that put their lives on the line to help each other. Take a moment today to consider what we stand for as a nation and how we can make the world a better place for all. Our Flags are lowered halfway, and there is a country wide moment of silence at 8:46 am, which is when the first plane made impact with one of the Twin Towers. Today as reflect and remember, may it remind us all of the sensitivity of our time and the importance of standing united as a nation.

Happy Teddy Bear Day
Teddy bears have stood the test of time as symbols of comfort, warmth, and companionship. Whether given as a gift or kept as a keepsake, these soft and familiar friends offer a special kind of reassurance. Celebrated on September 9, National Teddy Bear Day honors the simple joy these stuffed animals bring. They remind us that something so small can carry deep meaning, providing peace, fond memories, and joy through every stage of life.
Recently, memory bears have gained popularity. These custom-made keepsakes are often lovingly made from clothing that once belonged to someone special. A favorite shirt, dress, or familiar fabric can become a lasting reminder of a loved one's warmth and presence. For example, if Grandma adored sunflowers, a bear made from her favorite sunflower-printed dress can be a beautiful tribute.
Creating a memory bear can be a meaningful way to grieve, heal, and celebrate life. For both children and adults, they offer a tangible connection to those they hold dear, preserving precious memories and providing comfort for years to come.
