Once again the wild and crazies have come out of the wood work and presented themselves to the public without shame or embarrassment as they turned our dinner dance into a disco club of the 70’s! For those that did not attend, Bill Shewman met everyone at the door in his classy ensemble, along with Betty Shimek who is always dressed to the nines. Two beautiful welcoming people. The costumed, men crazies, wore wigs, wild shirts, flared pants and the women were in the disco finery of the times emulating the girls that changed this country by starting a new dance craze that went on for some time. Think about it . . . . it still remains within the creative mind of Anne Klink who orchestrated the agenda and everyone had a wonderful time. However, with Anne’s thought process. . . what will the next dinner dance be? O K, we know it will be a little more calm as we enjoy the holiday season and all it has to offer to each of us individually. Speaking of costumes, the newsletter makes reference to a costume party at the Scottsdale House for the camaraderie on Wednesday the 27th. Please understand. . . . a costume is not required. Many of you will do your thing but we still need a huge crowd there to enjoy what the dress-ups will be in all of their finery. Come as a “whatever” and be comfortable in however you feel you should present yourself. All those in costume will crave the attention that the rest of us will so willingly give. We welcome back our out of state residents who spend the winter here as they escape ice, snow, sleet, hail, wind as none of that ever happens in our valley. . . but it is a warmer winter than Colorado, Wisconsin, or from wherever you might have spent your summer. Please commence joining the rest of us who have missed you at our fabulous camaraderies organized by Helene McKinstry or our lively new Singles Mingle , happy hour, organized by Nancy Hollack both of which are located in special venues in the valley. The October, kick off, camaraderie at Manuel's, included Margey Haneman, who “SELLS AZ” when she is not dancing and new member Dee Orr who worked the check-in table with enthusiasm along with Phyllis Rich. Thanks gals for your participation. Our seasonal social whirl is starting to spin so join us for a dizziness you will never forget. If you have to choose between drinking wine every day or being skinny which would you choose? Red or White? And: Remember, to make a difference in someone’s life you don’t have to be brilliant, rich, beautiful or perfect, you just have to care. Phillip G.

WHY WWSA IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTHResearcher George Slavich, of the University of California, who studies human social genomics, says that our genes can actually be turned on or off depending on our social environments.
In his discussion on social genomics, Dr. Slavich says that social stress is a stronger predictor of chronic disease-related mortality than physical inactivity, alcohol use, and smoking. This is powerful. It means that social connection matters. The people we choose to spend time with matters! I also know that creating healthy community is not effortless. Many of my patients tell me that lack of support is one of the biggest obstacles they face when deciding to make a lifestyle shift. I take this feedback to heart. Community is so important to me. I have seen firsthand how powerful and transformative supportive groups can be. When my patients have a support system, they are far more likely to sustain weight loss and feel better. The right community can also help you sustain lifestyle and behavior changes that are so important to long-term success, health, and happiness. Being connected to others is a necessary ingredient for health, just like food, water, air, sleep, or movement. |
We can laugh with you or without you, but it is more fun with you.

NEWS FROM ADOT MOTOR VEHICLE DIVISION DON’T GET GROUNDED
On October 1, 2020 new federal ID regulations will take effect at TSA airport security checkpoints.
The new federal rules will require air travelers to have a federally-compliant form of ID in order to pass security clearance.
Arizonans have a choice to get the Travel ID. This credential is a driver license or ID that has a gold star on the top right-hand corner, and getting one is perhaps the most convenient solution.
In order to get one, you can make an appointment at www.servicearizona.com for any MVD office. Walk-ins are also welcome. Or you may visit an Authorized Third Party driver license location.
To learn more about the documents you need to bring, please visit www.aztravelid.com
October of 2020 will be here soon. Don't wait and don't get grounded. Get the Travel ID!
