Happy National Cat Day!

Cats may have a reputation for being independent, but they can also be wonderful companions!

Today is a great day to celebrate the cats who brighten our lives and consider supporting a local animal shelter or rescue.

That familiar-looking number on your caller ID may not be who you think it is.

Scammers can “spoof” phone numbers to make a call appear to come from a local number, bank, government agency, or other trusted organization. They may also use personal information and even AI-generated voices to make their calls more convincing.

AARP recommends a few simple ways to protect yourself:
• Let calls from unknown numbers go to voicemail
• Don’t speak or press buttons in response to suspicious prerecorded calls
• Hang up if something doesn’t feel right
• Independently look up the organization’s phone number and call it yourself
• Be especially cautious when a caller creates a sense of urgency or asks for personal information or money
• Consider call-blocking tools offered by your phone provider

“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.”
— Jim Rohn

Healthy aging isn't about turning back the clock. It's about taking care of yourself so you can continue doing the things you love.

Whether it's taking a daily walk, eating nutritious foods, getting enough sleep, staying socially connected, or making time for your mental well-being, small choices can make a big difference.

And remember, it's never too late to start making your health a priority!

What's one thing you do every day to take care of yourself?

It was a wonderful opportunity to share information about our programs, meet community members, and talk about the many ways volunteers can make a difference in the lives of older adults.

Thank you to Somerset Aspen Lodge for bringing everyone together and to everyone who stopped by to connect with us!

Fall gardening: A little cleanup goes a long way!

As the temperatures cool and the leaves begin to fall, it's a great time to prepare your garden for winter and give yourself a reason to enjoy the outdoors!

But did you know that a perfectly tidy garden isn't always the healthiest garden?

Northern Gardener shares some helpful fall cleanup tips:
🍂 Leave some leaves: Fallen leaves can protect soil and provide shelter for beneficial insects
🌻 Let some plants stand: Seed heads and dried stems offer food and shelter for birds and pollinators
🌱 Remove unhealthy plants: Clearing away diseased plants can help prevent problems next spring
🌷 Think ahead: A little preparation now can make spring gardening easier

Gardening is also a wonderful way to stay active, enjoy fresh air, and connect with nature. Just remember to pace yourself and take breaks!
