Crandall Combine PRSRT STD U.S. Postage PAID Seagoville, TX Permit No. 37 Warsaw The Communicator The Community Connection Volume 16, Number 12 Visit Our Web Site - CrandallCommunicator.com March 31, 2014 Highway cleanup conducted by John Bunker Sands Wetland Center staff and volunteers In the early morning sun of February 22, community residents, and the volunteers & staff of the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center cleaned a 2-mile section of FM 1389 South leading to the City of Combine. Our third annual highway cleanup had 21 participants making up four teams. Each team tackled a 1 mile section of the highway picking up bottles, cans, tires, toys, cookbooks, construction material, and many other unique finds. After the cleanup, the volunteers gathered back at the Wetland Center to enjoy a pizza lunch and vote on the most unique item found that day. This year, Katy Guerin, a student from Barbara Walker Elementary, made the best find with a complete set of Barbie toys, shoes included! Many thanks to Katy and all of our wonderful volunteers and community residents for lending a helping hand. We hope to keep FM 1389 clean and safe for our local community. It's hard to believe just how much trash and refuse is thrown out along our roadways. Even though there are ordinances which prohibit littering, it still continues to be a major problem along our roads leading in and out of our communities. Many of us are conscientitious about keeping our roadsides clear of debris, but unfortunately many are not. Chamber Awards Banquet will introduce local artist The Greater Crandall Chamber of Commerce is excited to be featuring two mosaic tile pieces for this year's auction created by local Seagoville mosaic artist, Glenda Dupuis. The Seagoville Chamber will also be featuring mosaic work done by Glenda in the near future. Glenda is a native Seagoville resident who has stayed close to her roots and actually lives right next door to the house she grew up in. She and her husband, Mike, have one daughter, Sara and one grandson, Andy Tarrant IV, age 3. Glenda keeps Andy full time during the week and often does her mosaic work with Andy close by. It actually appears he may have a talent for mosaic work himself! Glenda mentions she has the best son-in-law in the world, Andy III. Glenda started doing mosaic tile work in 1996 and says she hasn't stopped since. Her first pieces were stepping stones and she now creates commissioned designs for interested clients, as well as her own creations. She likes to do a short interview with her prospective customers, which often gives her insight when creating special designs for them. Facebook is a positive outlet for many of her designs and brings in a number of inquiries for custom (See Glenda Dupuis - Page 4) CISD hires new Athletic Director - Head Football Coach Coach Joe Dale Cary is beginning his 15th year of coaching and his 1st season as Athletic Director and Head Football Coach at Crandall.

The Dallas area earned the dubious honor of ranking number 18 on the 2013 Allergy Capitals ranking of U.S. cities by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA). Some of the worst spring allergy offenders in the north Texas area include mountain cedar, oak and pecan trees, along with several grass pollens. Mountain cedar starts in the winter and as it subsides, other tree pollens appear, followed by grass pollens which taper off in June when rising temperatures slow down blooming plants and pollen. Here are a few guidelines to assist you in getting through the spring allergy season: • If your symptoms are milder and isolated to the nose and eyes, antihistamines are the mainstay of treatment and control. • If oral antihistamines are not effective, try adding a prescription nasal steroid or antihistamine spray. In addition, using salt water flushes before nasal spray use can be helpful. • If antihistamines and a nasal steroid spray don’t do the trick, allergy shots can be very effective. • For people with asthma: make sure you are taking all of your controller medications, are on medication to treat your allergies and have an action plan to treat exacerbations. • Before you turn on your air conditioner for the first time, clean your vents and change the filter as clogged filters are less effective at keeping pollens and molds out of your home. • When pollen is at its peak, stay indoors as much as possible. March 31 2014 Page 5 Health Alert for Women Women. Are you feeling tired during the day? Are you having trouble concentrating? Are you moody and irritable? The symptoms may not simply be due to the constraints of a busy work and home schedule, according to sleep experts with Parkland Health & Hospital System. It may be a case of undiagnosed sleep disorder, such as sleep apnea. Although often associated with overweight middle-aged males, females, too may suffer from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) but the symptoms may be overlooked or simply ignored. Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition in which the flow of air pauses or decreases during breathing because the airway has become narrowed or floppy during sleep – thus, the condition is termed “obstructive.” A complete cessation of breathing is called an apnea while a significant decrease in airflow is termed a hypopnea. Heavy snoring may be a marker of obstructive sleep apnea, and it is created by the turbulence of the airflow through the floppy airway. “Society almost expects women, especially those with young children, to be tired,” said Ryan Hays, MD, Parkland’s Director of Sleep Medicine and Assistant Professor of Neurology & Neurotherapeutics at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. “But society may be too quick to attribute symptoms of sleepiness, irritability, and trouble concentrating to ‘baby brain’ or ‘working mom brain’.” Women tend to have different types of complaints than their male sleep apnea counterparts including more insomnia, chronic fatigue and depression. In addition, women may be less knowledgeable of their own snoring; often women may be more vigilant about their bed-partner’s sleep, whereas men may be sound sleepers and less likely to note abnormal breathing in their bed-partner. But Dr. Hays cautions that undiagnosed sleep apnea may contribute to other health risks such as heart attacks and stroke, or even increase the probability of a serious car accident. Like their male counterparts, women who snore and are overweight or have hypertension are at a greater risk for obstructive sleep apnea. Women who are post-menopausal are also at a greater risk. The only true way to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea, Dr. Hays said, is through a careful history and, when indicated, a sleep study called a polysomnogram. During the study, pain-free sensors are placed on patients’ scalp, face, chest, limbs and finger. While the patient sleeps, the sensors record brain activity, eye movements, heart rate and rhythm, leg movements, air flow, and the concentration of oxygen in the blood. Elastic belts placed around the chest and stomach measure inhalation and exhalation. The recordings are analyzed by a qualified sleep specialist to determine whether a patient has sleep apnea or another sleep disorder. “People who have sleep apnea experience a disruption of sleep numerous times per hour,” he said, noting those with a severe case may be aroused every two minutes. “Since sleep serves as a restorative process for the body, it’s important that it not be disrupted. Otherwise, daytime symptoms may begin to develop.” For many women, a cure for sleep apnea may not be possible. But, there are several effective treatment options. Along with losing weight via exercising and developing a healthier lifestyle, the most common treatment is CPAP, or continuous positive airway pressure machine and mask. The mild pressure from the CPAP prevents the airway from collapsing during sleep. Other women may be candidates for an oral appliance specially fitted by a dentist, or even a surgical intervention. Women are encouraged to discuss sleep problems or excessive fatigue with their primary care provider who can help determine if a sleep study or other therapy is needed.

What’s up with the Easter Bunny? Does it bother anyone else that a bunny is hiding colored eggs? I looked on the Internet and found that the origin of the Easter Bunny began in Germany around the 1600’s and was brought to the United States by German settlers in the 1700’s. It is supposed to represent spring time and new beginnings. The colored eggs resemble the burst of spring flowers on the previously drab gray of winter. I think I have uncovered a conspiracy. We have long since realized that Santa Claus was intended to commercialize and disguise the Christmas Season and the day that Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus. Well, it is not a giant leap to see that Easter has been developed to do the same for the resurrection of Jesus. The Easter Bunny is a springtime Santa Claus. Both bring candy and presents to good little boys and girls. We have even begun leaving out snacks for them the night before. Santa gets cookies and milk and the Bunny gets carrots. It goes without saying too, that Santa leaves gifts in stockings and the Bunny leaves gifts in baskets. Question asked and answered. Now, let me be very clear, I have no problem with the concept of Santa or the Easter Bunny. We give Christmas gifts and always decorated eggs and hid them for our kids. What I do object to is the lack of recognition for what each of those holidays really represents. Our celebration of Christmas or Easter looses all of its significance without the mention of Jesus‘ birth and His resurrection. That being said, here is my dilemma, I get the theory of a fat jolly man that has a workshop where he makes toys to deliver to the children on Christmas morning. But why a bunny? Bunnies don’t lay eggs. Are we supposed to imagine that a great white bunny somewhere owns a hen house and collects eggs all year long to boil, color, and hide for children around the world on Easter morning? I think not. It is just not reasonable. If we are going to celebrate Easter with eggs, why don’t we have an Easter Chicken? That would make a lot more sense. There is something else that bothers me about this whole Easter egg thing. Why do we hide eggs in the first place. Were they just cheaper, or more abundant, or what? I don’t know about you but the only good thing about hard boiled eggs that have been hidden is that you can eventually find them all by the smell. We have enjoyed that scenario more than once. You come in the house on the first warm day after Easter and you realize somebody didn’t find all the hidden eggs. Ugh! I realize that traditions are hard to change. For over 400 years, people have celebrated Easter with a bunny and eggs. Some of that may never change, but here is my thought. Lets tweak the tradition just a tad. The Easter Bunny is cuter and cuddlier than an Easter Chicken would be, so let’s keep the Bunny. However, let’s have him give nothing but pure chocolate candy as treasures, rather than hard boiled eggs. Now that would be something really good to find. However, no chocolate bunnies could possibly compare to what the women found when they went to the tomb where the body of Jesus had been placed. Matthew 28:5-6 reminds us, “But the angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.’” That is one time where finding nothing was the biggest blessing of all. Have a Happy Easter! Achieving Happiness - An Individual Decision Happiness, in the opinion of many, is finding good things in your life - right here, right now, realizing you have wonderful things all around you. On the contrary, many people live their life stuck on the idea they will only be happy once they have achieved this, that and the other thing on their "must have" list, and when they do get that item, they re- alize they aren't happy after all. Because then they have new things to want. There's no way they can put on a happy face for real, still wanting more! They haven't learned to like the wanting part - the journey itself. They're set on the idea they cannot be happy unless they have achieved something (or everything.) They haven't learned to find happiness in their journey toward achieving the wanted thing or things. Some say happiness is elusive; not so! Happiness is an attitude and as such, you carry the keys to happiness with you wherever you go - it is all inside your own mind. You can learn that attitude of happiness or contentment if you so decide.
