❄️ Winter Wellness for Seniors ❄️
Winter can feel long and challenging for seniors. Shorter days and colder weather often mean spending more time indoors and less time doing the activities they enjoy—which can sometimes lead to feelings of loneliness.
Winter is a wonderful time to slow down and focus on connection and comfort:
✨ Meaningful conversations and reminiscence
✨ Staying socially connected through visits or video calls
✨ Supporting physical wellness with hydration, light movement, and warm layers
✨ Prioritizing safety with slip prevention, CO detectors, and home preparedness
A little extra attention can make the season feel more engaging, comforting, and safe.
💬 Conversation Starters to Spark Reminiscence:
• What were winters like when you were a kid?
• Do you remember any big snowstorms or winter traditions?
• How did you keep warm at home?
• What were your favorite winter foods or drinks?
• Did you enjoy winter, or did the days feel long and cold?
Sometimes, a simple conversation can bring warmth, memories, and a smile. 💙

🧀 🧀 NATIONAL CHEESE LOVER'S DAY🧀 🧀

On National Cheese Lover's Day, don't feel bleu, throw a feta or act capriciously. January 20th is a gouda day to kummin over and have some cheddar or asiago or fontina!


There is no firm evidence of how humans discovered cheese making. But legend tells us it was likely that someone created the first cheese by chance. Thousands of years ago, people transported milk and stored it in sheep's stomachs. Left to sit a few days, the proteins would separate into curds and whey. From there, preserving the solids with salt may have seemed a logical next step. Salt was a highly valued preservative in ancient times. The earliest record of cheese making dates back to 5,500 BCE in what is now Poland. Today there are over 1,400 varieties of cheese.

📖 📚NATIONAL THESAURUS DAY 📖 📚
National Thesaurus Day, on January 18th, honors Peter Mark Roget, the author of Roget’s Thesaurus, who was born on this day in 1779.

In 1840, Roget retired from a successful career in medicine and spent the rest of his life working on Roget’s Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases. The work was the result of decades of collecting lists of words and categorizing them, much like a scientist would collect specimens. In Roget's case, he collected words. He first published his thesaurus in 1852. And it was more than a book of synonyms - it was a complete categorization and organization of each word by meaning.

Since then, poets and writers have used the thesaurus to help make their writing come to life. However, the thesaurus also has its detractors. Some say the thesaurus weakens language and destroys it.

Whether you are looking for a more accurate word or trying to improve your writing, the thesaurus can be your best friend. Expanding your vocabulary increases both written and spoken communication skills, creative writing abilities, and can be helpful in advancing your career.
