Buccaneer Bay Newsletter September 2018

1 Buccaneer Bay Newsletter September 2018 Note from the Editor It is hard to believe that we are already into the 9 th month of the year. We will soon be getting ready for Halloween, then Thanksgiving and finally Christmas. My favorite three months of the year. October can be depressing as each year I get one more year older and this time I am moving into the big numbers. One of the boards that I set on provided each family with tickets to Vala s Pumpkin Patch. I had not been there since my granddaughters were little. So this this time I took my daughterin-law, adult grand-daughter and three great grandkids. It was a little chilly but we had a good time. I wore out before they did so I left a little before closing time. It is fun to see them get excited about the rides and the funny looking ghosts and play areas. This year will be the Presbyterian Church s 109 th year for the Chicken Pie Supper. I stepped down for a couple of years due to my work schedule, so I was able to help more last year and I am working on getting everything organized this year. We made a huge change about 10 years ago and separated everything out into committees. I just keep track of each committee and everyone gets their job done and ready for the final day. The recipe, to my knowledge, has been a big secret for years. Thank goodness we don t have to kill the chickens ourselves like the ladies had to do 100 years ago. My only concern is how long I will be able to stand on my feet that evening. I am having knee replacement surgery next Monday. But if I recover as quickly as I did when I had my other knee fixed 8 years ago, I should be able to do just fine. Be sure to check out Page 3 for the upcoming Fall Clean-Up day. This is a great plan that the Block Captains have put together. The goal is to clean up the roads of litter. They will have a table setup on Davy Jones Circle for everyone to pick up their supplies. We are having Block Captains meetings every 4-months to help keep us all informed. One of the deputies from the Sheriff s office comes down to talk to us about things that have happened in the neighborhood. This time there seemed to be several incidents, many because cars are left un-locked sitting on the street or in driveways. It is highly recommended to lock up vehicles that are setting outside. If you see something strange going on be sure to notify the Sheriff s office. Hope everyone has a great fall. It will soon be Halloween. We do get a lot of Trick-or-Treaters, many come out from town. But it is fun to see that this is still an exciting holiday for the kids. I remember the many years my three sisters and I got to go out. Back then we didn t have to worry about strangers, and every family seemed to have fun handing out the treats.

The first novel ever written on a typewriter, Tom Sawyer. 11. The San Francisco Cable cars are the only mobile National Monuments. This-N-That Page 2 of 26 IF YOU ARE ALONE AND HAVING A HEART ATTACK 1. Let s say it s 7.25pm and you re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job. 2. You re really tired, upset and frustrated. 3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home. 4. Unfortunately you don t know if you ll be able to make it that far. 5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself. 6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. 7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. 8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. 9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!! 10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we ll save at least one life. 11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person s life. 12. If this message comes around you... more than once please don t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.
