eating for heart health is actually easier — and more delicious — than you might think. When you have a good plan and plenty of mouthwatering

recipes, you’ll enjoy taking care of your heart.according to the FDa, diets rich in whole

grain foods and other plant foods, and low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may help reduce the risk of heart disease. Here are some tips to help you make these kinds of heart-smart choices:nChoose leaner cuts of meat. You can find

plenty of delicious options such as skin-less chicken, lean pork and beef. and you can make smart substitu tions, too — use ground turkey instead of ground beef to make meatloaf or burgers even leaner.

n add fruits and veggies to every meal. strawberries in yogurt, blueberries

on a salad, carrots and hummus as a snack, roasted sweet potatoes with dinner — it’s easier than you think to add nutrient-dense produce to your diet. eat plenty of different colored produce for variety and a wider range of health benefits.

n enjoy more whole grains. Whole grains add carbohydrates for energy, fiber to fill you up, and nutrients important for good health. and, according to a recent national survey, 4 out of 5 doctors recom mend shredded Wheat as part of a healthy, low-sodium diet, to maintain a healthy heart, reduce the risk of heart disease, and support healthy blood pressure levels. these recipes are a great start to adding more whole grains — and they’re so good, you might forget they are heart smart. recipes listed on page 5.

Rather than heading to the pharmacy for solutions to common ailments, a majority of people may be able to stop at the nearest pet store or animal shelter and find a finned or furry remedy instead.

Studies that link positive health benefits to pet ownership abound. According to WebMD, one study found that 48 stockbro-kers who adopted a pet experienced lower blood pressure readings in stressful situa-tions than did people who did not own pets. Another study found that individuals suf-

fering from serious diseases, such as cancer or AIDS, are far less likely to experience depression if they have a strong tie to a pet. Plus, pets have proven beneficial to seniors struggling with loneliness.

Any pet can try a person’s patience at times, expecially when a kitty has used a sofa as a scratching post or when a pooch needs to be let into the yard at 3 a.m. But for many pet owners, the benefits of having a pet far outweigh the negatives. Here are some of the many ways that pet ownership can be good for your health.

Lower blood pressure: Petting a dog or cat can lower blood pressure, as can watch-ing a fish swim around a tank. Those with hypertension may want to purchase or adopt a companion animal to help lower their blood pressure.

Reduce stress: Stress is something people face on a daily basis. According to a National Health Interview Survey, 75 per-cent of the general population experiences

Among the most popular treats to prepare and share are cookies, cakes and cupcakes.

Try these tips and get ready to bake to your heart’s content.■ let your love take shape with a Valentine Cookie Pan; heart shapes

and thoughtful sayings like “Be Mine” will surely make that special someone know how much you care.

“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.”

If you’re tired of flipping burgers,

put some sizzle on the grill with

your own spiced-up fajitas and soft

tacos.

These easy recipes start with

all-natural chicken marinated in

full-bodied Extra Virgin Olive Oil

and flavorful spices, then grilled to

perfection. Add your grilled chicken

to seasoned vegetables and easy,

homemade salsa, then wrap it all up in

corn tortillas that have been warmed

up on the grill for a fresh, homemade

taste. It’s so easy to spice up the grill that

you just might make every night a

grill night.

Fajitas Your Way

Put your own spin on Grilled Chicken

Fajitas with these tasty ideas:

Ranch style

bacon, diced, to 1/2 inch strips of

chicken.

After peppers are sautéed, add diced

tomatoes and mushrooms; heat

through.

Top with ranch dressing.

Jamaican jerk style

Marinade

Coat chicken with 2 teaspoons jerk

seasoning and marinate.

Vegetables

during sauté.

SalsaCombine 1/4 cup each diced papaya

and pineapple, 3 tablespoons red

Nearly 1.5 million families lose their homes to foreclosure each year because of unpaid medical bills, ac-cording to an article published in the Health Matrix: Journal of Law Medicine. Not surprising when you consider that the average cost of a single day's worth of inpatient hos-pital care is more than $1,600.

"Health insurance will not cover all of the related expenses in treat-ing certain diseases," explains Polly Galbraith, medical director for an insurance provider.

To avoid paying more for less coverage, it's essential to compare insurance options. There are, how-ever, some other ways to maximize your insurance spend.

y Understand the benefits and tools available at work. Take stock of all the benefits your employer offers. Even if you pay some or all of the premium, you may have access to valuable plans that can fill gaps in existing coverages. Many carriers provide tools that can help deter-mine what plans benefit you the most, and what level of coverage is appropriate.

y Protect your income. Most people fail to contemplate what they would do if unable to earn a paycheck. Se-rious illness or accidents may not oc-cur often, but the ramifications can be significant with impacts beyond

NEWS USA

your health, like your livelihood.

y Consider supplemental insur-ance. Many daily expenses are not covered by health insurance. Childcare, transportation and lost work time catch people off guard when income is disrupted. Medi-cal insurance covers doctor visits and medicine, but not day-to-day things. Supplemental coverages pay a fixed sum upon the event, which you can use for whatever you want.

y Purchase through work for sav-ings and convenience. When you purchase coverage at work, you benefit from group insurance rates which are more affordable. These benefits can come with some level of guaranteed coverage, meaning you do not have to submit medi-cal evidence. Many employers will also collect and remit premiums to the carrier for you, through payroll deduction. Check with other groups you belong to, like labor unions, business organizations, student as-sociations and other special-interest groups, that may also offer cover-age at discounted rates.

y Take it with you. Don't forget to look at options that include porta-bility, the ability to take the cov-erage with you should you leave your job.

at least “some stress” every two weeks, and many times that stress is moderate to severe. Research has indicated that when people spend time with a pet their levels of cortisol, a hormone associated with stress, is lowered while their level of serotonin, a hormone as-sociated with improved mood and well-being, is increased.

Lower cholesterol: Lifestyle factors associated with pet own-ership, particularly a focus on increased physical health and ac-tivity, can help lower cholesterol levels. Also, having a pet works to reduce stress, which may keep individuals from looking to fatty foods as sources of alleviating anxiety.

Fight depression: Many thera-pists have prescribed pet therapy as a method to alleviating and recovering from depression. A pet is an unconditional friend and can provide that listening ear a person needs to talk through problems. Also, walking and tak-ing care of a pet devotes attention away from problems and inward thinking.

Improve physical activity levels: Heading to the gym is one way to get a workout, but spending an hour walking the dog or tossing around a ball for a game of chase and fetch is anoth-er way to get the heart pumping. Many dog owners benefit from the “forced” exercise that goes with daily walks. Some people choose to exercise with their pets, enjoying the companionship and the physical activity.

Reduce stroke incidences: There has been evidence that cat owners are less likely to suf-fer strokes than people who do not have cats. Researchers are not sure of the connection, but surmise that cats have a more calming nature than other types of pets.

Greater opportunities for socialization: Humans are so-cial animals and need to interact with others. Pet owners have a tendency to want to share time and experiences with other pet owners. Pets can provide oppor-

tunities for people to get together.

ADHD therapy: Children and adults with attention deficit hy-peractivity disorder often benefit from working with a pet or hav-ing a pet as a family companion. Playing with a pet is a great way to release excess energy and fo-cus on tasks. Also, a pet with his or her unconditional love can help someone with ADHD overcome self-esteem issues. Similar results are possible when pets are used as therapy animals for children with autism and other behavioral disabilities.

Reduce propensity for allergies: Children who grow up in homes with cats and dogs are less likely to develop common allergies and even asthma, research suggests. In fact, children who live around two or more dogs or cats before their first birthday are less likely to have allergies of any sort, according to a study published in The Journal of the American Medical Association.

Research presented at the 10th International Conference on Hu-man Animal Interaction found pet owners were the least likely to have to visit the doctor. The survey of more than 11,000 re-spondents from Australia, China and Germany found that over a five-year period pet owners made 15 to 20 percent fewer annual visits to the doctor than non-pet owners.

The companionship and love pets provide could be a key ben-efit in promoting good personal health.

Tax Connection

FAMILY FEATURES

No tax benefit offers a greater lifeline to working families than EITC. Yet, one out of every five eligible taxpayers fails to claim it, according to the IRS. Because of the economy, even more people may be eligible if they have had changes in their earned income. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

n The maximum credit for 2012 tax returns is $5,891 for work-ers with three or more qualify-ing children.

n Eligibility for the EITC is determined based on a number of factors including earnings, filing status and eligible chil-dren. Workers without qualify-ing children may be eligible for a smaller credit amount.

Learn more at www.irs.gov/eitc and use the EITC Assistant, or ask your tax professional.

EITC: Are you eligible?n You must have earned income.n Your adjusted gross income

cannot be more than the limit.n Your filing status cannot be

“Married filing separately.”n You must have a valid Social

Security number.n You must be a U.S. citizen or

resident alien all year.n You cannot file Form 2555 or

Form 2555-EZ.n Your investment income must

be $3,200 or less.

BRANDPOINT

You probably know tax deductions are an important part of your income tax return and that you

want as many as possible. But do you understand how deductions actually save you money or how to determine which ones you can claim on your tax return?

“Simply put, deductions lower the amount of your taxable income,” ex-plains Jessi Dolmage, spokesperson for makers of popular tax-preparation soft-ware. “The more deductions you have, the less tax you pay.”

Knowing which deductions you qualify for and whether you should itemize is easy. You have the choice of claiming the standard deduction or item-izing deductions on your tax return, but you should choose whichever amount is

higher.Nearly two out of three taxpayers

claim the standard deduction. Amounts are adjusted for inflation each year, vary by filing status and are higher for those 65 and older or who are legally blind. For 2012 federal tax returns due April 15, 2013, standard deduction amounts are:

■ $5,950 for single-or married filing separately

■ $11,900 for married filing jointly-and qualifying widows(ers)

■ $8,700 for head of household

If you itemize, your deductions are listed separately on your tax return. Itemized deductions are reported on Schedule A and can only be filed with long Form 1040. On the other hand, tax-

payers claiming the standard deduction can file Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ.

Itemized deductions may include mortgage interest, state and local taxes, charitable gifts, unreimbursed employee expenses, uninsured casualty or theft losses, and miscellaneous deductions. However, your expenses must meet certain requirements to qualify as item-ized deductions. For instance, certain miscellaneous deductions must exceed 2 percent of your adjusted gross income, and unreimbursed medical and dental costs must exceed 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income.

If your tax return filing status is mar-ried filing separately, both spouses must claim the same deduction type. If one spouse itemizes deductions, the other must also itemize, and vice versa.

All taxpayers are eligible for certain deductions, regardless of whether they itemize. Examples include traditional IRA contributions, student loan interest, alimony payments, moving expenses and a portion of your self-employment tax (if applicable). Deductions like these

are often described as “above-the-line” because they are deducted from gross income. Itemized and standard deduc-tions are subtracted from adjusted gross income.

Learn more about deductions in IRS Publication 501 at www.irs.gov.

Keep this list as a checklist of the items you will need to do your taxes. The IRS recommends keeping all tax-related documents for three years, in case of an audit. Tracking income-related documents can help you take full advantage of deductions available to you.

Photo by John A. WintersFire investigators survey the damage from an early Wednesday fire that gutted the Trey Rhodes State Farm building complex off Millard Farmer Industrial Boulevard.

An early Wednesday f ire destroyed the Trey Rhodes of f ice bu i ld i ng complex located off Millard Farmer Industrial Boulevard.

No injuries were reported, and canine units with the state Fire Marshal’s off ice were out investigating the cause of the blaze Wednesday afternoon.

“It’s still under investiga-tion, and right now we just don’t know,” said Newnan Fire Marshal Ricky Ayers.

“We brought in a K-9 unit to see if he hits on anything. It’s just part of the puzzle ...

The f ire started on the south side of the complex short ly before 3 : 30 a .m . , according to Newnan Fire Depa r tment Chief David Whitley.

“The fire was fully involved upon our arrival,” the chief sa id , adding 21 f i ref ight-ers , four engines and an aerial truck were involved. Firef ighters had the blaze under control in under 30 minutes.

“It started on the far end . . . but the f ire wall at his (Rhodes’) offices held it in check,” Whitley said.

A p u b l i c h e a r i n g o n Coweta County’s fiscal year 2013 budget is on the agen-da for tonight’s meeting of the Coweta County Board of Commissioners.

The meeting begins at 6 p.m. in the county commission chambers on Perry Street. The meeting, which is normally held on the first Tuesday of the month, was moved to today because of Labor Day.

Coweta County is on an October to September fiscal year. The commissioners are set to approve the budget at

the Sept. 18 meeting. Other items on the agenda

include: ■ A request by Stalwart

Films to close a portion of Coweta-Heard Road for film-ing of AMC hit cable TV show “The Walking Dead.” ■ A decision on the request

of The Heritage School for a variance of the planting requirements around a newly-constructed detention pond. The detention pond was built as part of an expansion of the school. The pond is com-pletely surrounded by for-est, according to the planning department.

There are 163 foreclosure-related advertisements list-ed in today’s legal advertis-ing section of The Newnan Times-Herald.

That’s up slightly from last month, when there were 160 — the lowest of the year. July’s 224 notices were the highest of the year.

This month’s foreclosures are almost exclusively single-family residential properties.

However, one that isn’t resi-dential is a 43.25-acre tract along Hwy. 16 East owned by PTV LLC. The property was formerly the Autumn’s Gate mobile home park.

According to the lega l advertisement, the sale under power is to secure debt under a promissory note that was originally executed on June 27, 2006, for $3.5 million. The promissory note was modified several times, with the most recent modification on March 24, 2010. The last principal amount listed was $2,115,536, listed from a modification on Aug. 5, 2009.

PTV originally bought the property in June 2005.

Georgia’s foreclosure rates remain among the highest in the country. According to Realty Trac, Georgia is one

The board of the Coweta County Water and Sewerage Authority gave ten-tative approval Wednesday to a mem-orandum of understanding with the Coweta County Board of Education for the construction of a sewer line to serve a proposed middle school on Corinth Road.

The water and sewerage authority will be responsible for design and installa-tion of the sewer line and lift stations,

and the school system will reimburse the authority for the cost.

“We have given them a preliminary number of just over a million dollars,” said Jay Boren, authority interim general manager.

The project will consist of six to eight miles of “force main” and two lift sta-tions, according to the preliminary engi-neering study, Boren said. The route hasn’t been determined. “We’re looking at coming up Corinth Road currently,” Boren said, but “it is not set in stone.”

The cost isn’t, either. There will be

a clause in the memorandum of under-standing about possible unforeseen extra costs.

“As long as it is justifiable… we won’t be liable for that,” Boren said.

“Of course we’re going to monitor this project like every one of them, and hold costs as low as we can,” he said.

The sewer line will connect to the under-construction extension along Highway 16, which will send waste-water to the authority’s Shenandoah

BOUCKAERT FARM AT CHATTAHOOCHEE HILLS

Photo courtesy Hoofclix.comThe Olympic sport of eventing is an equestrian triathlon that is a test of skill, strength, partnership, and just plain guts — definitely not your average horse show. Here, a competitor takes a jump during one phase of the contest.

Some of the finest riders and horses in the world will be in South Fulton County this weekend for the American Eventing Championships.

This is the third and final year that the AEC will be held at Bouckaert Farm at Chattahoochee Hills, which is locat-ed on the banks of the Chattahoochee

River. Admission is free, and Cowetans are

invited to attend the competition. Competition begins today with dres-

sage. Dressage and cross-country com-petition will be held Friday. Cross coun-try and show jumping will take place on Saturday, and show jumping will con-clude on Sunday.

“Make no mistake. This will be a true festival of eventing and fun for the whole

family,” said farm owner Carl Bouckaert, himself a world-class rider who recently competed in the London Olympics for his native Belgium.

What makes the AEC unique is that the national championship isn’t just for world-class horses and riders. There will be competitions in categories from beginner/novice all the way to advanced.

Behind only Mother's Day, Valentine's Day is the sec-ond most popular day to

give flowers to a loved one. Thou-sands upon thousands of roses are imported from areas of South America in time for Valentine's Day, and the rose has become the unofficial flower of this day.

Red roses may signify love, but just about any other crimson-hued flower can also represent the strong emotions felt for a sweet-heart. When visiting the florist to have a bouquet or arrangement of flowers assembled for Valen-tine's Day, consider mixing and matching some other flowers for an arrangement with flair and originality.

Dahlias: Named after Anders Dahl, a Swedish botanist, these

flowers are native to Mexico but actually prefer cooler growing conditions. Dahlias come in all sizes, from small blooms of a few inches to much larger blossoms that may be a foot in width. They are related to the sunflower, daisy and chrysanthemum. The Dahlia usually is not a scented flower, which may work for people who are especially sensitive to scented blooms.

Chrysanthemums: Also known as mums, chrysanthe-

mums are versatile flowers that symbolize optimism, joy, fidelity and love. Although mums are tra-ditionally yellow, they can also be white, red and other hybrid hues.

Peonies: Peonies are herba-ceous perennial plants that pro-duce large, often fragrant flowers ranging in color from red to white. Peonies are highly prized by Eastern cultures, and in China they are known as the "flower of riches and honor."

Carnations: Carnations have the scientific name of Dianthus, which means "flowers of God." Carnations are particularly coveted because they can last long after being cut, which makes them popular in floral arrange-ments. Dark red carnations are said to convey affection and deep love. Because of their popular-

ity, carnations are often easily affordable.

Columbine: Columbine is na-tive to North America, Asia and Europe. It has lacy-looking leaves and bell-shaped flowers. While columbines are traditionally used

as garden plants to attract hum-mingbirds, a few blooms added to a floral arrangement can brighten up the design.

Poppies: Low-maintenance and usually easy to grow, poppies' vivid red color and large blooms

add to their aesthetic appeal.

Cardinals: Cardinals are long, tubular flowers that grow wild throughout North America. Tall and dramatic, these red flowers can add drama to any floral arrangement.

The rose may be traditional for Valentine’s Day, but gifting with a variety of red-hued flowers may add visual appeal and affordability to arrangements.

On the heels of the holiday giving season, most gift-givers realize how difficult it can be finding the "perfect" gift for a recipient. That gift may be even more difficult to find when the intention is to convey love and affection. But Valentine's Day givers can look to a number of gifts that are very thoughtful but needn't take more than a little forethought.

Gift card: You may be thinking a gift card doesn't sound that thoughtful. However, when paired with a listing of gift items, it's easy to illustrate the thought that went into the gift. It may make sense to simply purchase one of those interesting items, but this way you're giving the recipi-ent the choice of what he or she really wants to select.

Something engraved or monogrammed: A simple

scarf turns into something more special when it includes mono-grammed initials or a special saying. The same can be said for anything from a picture frame to candle holders. Taking the time to have something monogrammed or engraved imparts thoughtful-ness into the gift.

Pet accessories: People view their pets as members of the fam-ily and often as small children (when small children are not yet present). Especially during the dating stage, providing an ador-able gift for his or her pet may be seen as a heartfelt gesture. Be sure to pick up a little something for the pet parent as well, though.

Hobby gifts: Recognizing the interests of a loved one is a clear sign that you're in tune with what he or she enjoys to do. If you have an avid reader on your hands, a new e-reader or some e-books may be ideal. Sports fans could

appreciate tickets to the next home game of their favorite team. Someone who dabbles in culinary creations may delight over a gift basket full of top-of-the-line cooking utensils.

A spending spree: Take your Valentine to his or her favorite

store and encourage him or her to pick out a few favorite items. Set a price limit or let them choose regardless of price. This way you can spend time together and see the joy on your Valentine's face when he or she is choosing treasured items.

5 Thoughtful Gifts That Don’t Require Much Thought

Gift suggestions for your Valentine’s pet include pinkand red dog toys, dog beds, cat toys and cat beds.

Take your Valentine on a shopping spree at his or her favorite store.

Shopping locally is a great way to benefit your community and, in many instances, your bottom line. When consumers shop locally, they help stimulate their local economies, creating jobs for their neighbors by helping local busi-nesses grow and thrive. Shopping locally also saves shoppers long trips to the mall that can waste expensive fuel, especially if consumers don't find what they're looking for.

Shopping locally is especially important when the economy is struggling, as smaller businesses are not always as capable of bear-ing the brunt of a recession as larger ones. The following are a handful of unique ways men and women can shop locally.

Forgo a traditional vacation. If you're used to taking an an-nual trip to a Caribbean island or another faraway locale, forgo that trip this year and take a more local vacation instead. A local vacation can be similar to a staycation, when you simply stay home, but spend some nights out on the town in your local community. Go out to eat, go to the movies, take in a concert or

theater performance at a nearby theater.

Hit the links. A round of golf is another great way to stimulate your local economy. Municipally owned golf courses are owned by the municipality, which means each dollar you spend is money that's going back into your com-munity. And much like other lo-cal businesses, the golf course is no doubt employing your friends and neighbors, giving even more money back to your community.

Buy a new or preowned vehicle. Buying from a local dealership can stimulate your lo-cal economy as your community will benefit from the taxes on the vehicle and that dealership will continue to provide jobs for fel-low members of your community.

Treat yourself to a spa treatment. Another unique and indulgent way to support your local economy is to treat yourself to a spa treatment. The cost of a spa trip depends on what you prefer, but even a relatively inexpensive trip to the spa will support a local business. Plus, you'll reap the rewards of that support immediately.

New Piedmont Newnan opens TuesdayPiedmont Newnan Hospital

officially opens Tuesday at its new campus at 745 Poplar Road.

But before that can happen the aging facility on Hospital Road must be officially closed.

It’s not a process that hap-pens with the flip of a switch or wave of a magic wand. Moving from the old facility to the new is actually a balanc-ing act that requires keeping both facilities open for more than a week as people, equip-ment and procedures under-go a transition that allows no room for error.

It’s not a process anyone takes lightly. But, so far, the procedure is going smoothly

and remarks from hospital officials make it clear they are ready to officially celebrate the opening of Georgia’s new-est hospital on Tuesday at 745 Poplar Road beside Interstate 85.

“We’ve waited a long time to be able to welcome patients to their new community hos-pital,” said Tim Stack, presi-dent and CEO of Piedmont

Healthcare. “We’re proud of the new facility and the expanded services we offer residents of Coweta County a n d t h e surround-ing areas. The open-i n g o f t h e n e w Piedmont Newnan Hospital is para-mount to our vision of provid-ing comprehensive, quality health care services across the Piedmont Healthcare system.”

The final days of joint oper-ation between the two facili-ties are scheduled down to the minute to make sure that essential services offered at Hospital Road remain in place until those services are

FaMily Features

When it comes to getting the house clean and tidy, closets often get left off the to-do list. From hall closets and linen closets to bed-room closets, “out of sight, out of mind” thinking quickly leads to clutter - and then frustration when you can’t find what you need when you need it.

But a little planning and a few simple tips can help you get your closets in user-friendly shape in no time.

Put your closets on your calendar. take stock of your schedule and commit some time to tackle your closets. set realistic expecta-tions — you don’t have to conquer all your closets at once. it may make sense for your family to forego tV one evening a week and focus on one closet at a time, for example.

Start by sorting.if you haven’t worn a piece of clothing in the past year — or you can’t remember the last time you wore something — then you don’t need it. Other items to purge from your closet: children’s clothes and shoes that are either too small or too worn out to pass down to a sibling or a friend.

■ sort your remaining clothes by season and then into piles to keep or pass down. if you have limited closet space, keep only the current season’s wardrobe in your closet. Carefully pack and store the rest for later.

■ linen closets stay more organized when you stack similar sized items together. sort sheets by size, and group washcloths, hand towels and bath towels together.

■ For closets that hold everything from the vacuum cleaner to art supplies and anything in between, work one shelf at a time. sort items by categories and dedicate one shelf or area of the closet to each group.

Eliminate excess. But don’t throw it away. as the saying goes, one man’s trash is another’s treasure. there are easy ways to donate your unwanted items to benefit those in need. One example is Donatestuff.com, where you can request pre-paid uPs shipping bags that make it simple and free to send in unwanted clothes, shoes, accessories and household linens. your dona-tion benefits one of three national nonprofits of your choosing: aMVets, easter seals, or the Purple Heart. it’s tax deductible, and

it reduces waste. americans throw away an average of 68 pounds of clothing each year — Donatestuff.com helps keep over 470,000 pounds of clothing out of landfills every week. you can learn more at www.donate-stuff.com.

Green up your storage. When it’s time to put things back into place, instead of buying new containers to hold things, look around the house for boxes and containers you already heave. Baskets, crates and even empty shoeboxes can be reused to keep your closets more organized.

Repeat often. you don’t have to wait until the next neigh-borhood yard sale before you sift through your closets again. as with most household chores, a little maintaince goes a long way to keep your closets looking neat and clean. you could even keep a bag in each of your kids’ closets and encourage them to set aside gently used and outgrown items on a regular basis.

you’ll be amazed at how much happier clean closets can make the whole house feel — especially when you turn the stuff you don’t need into a good deed.

✓ Create a control center for your family. Purchase a chalkboard or erasable whiteboard and use color-coded chalk or markers to record who needs to be where, and at what time.

✓Control heating and cooling remotely. Because fall temperatures can fluctuate suddenly, make sure your home is comfortable when children arrive back home, even if you’re not there, by installing a thermostat that can be controlled remotely.

✓ Get enough sleep. the National sleep Foundation says children ages 5 to 12 need 10 to 11 hours of sleep per night. Make sure your children have a set bedtime, and keep tVs and computers out of the bedroom.

✓ schedule family time. agree upon a time each week to spend time together and share a favorite meal or activity, such as a movie or game night.
