Preventing Lyme Disease
Tick season is here in Manitoba. There are several kinds of ticks crawling around, including the Deer Tick which is responsible for transmitting Lyme Disease. Avoiding tick bites is the best way to prevent this. Here’s how you can keep yourself bite-free when spending time outdoors: 1) Wear closed-toe shoes, long sleeves, and pants. 2) Walk on pathways, staying clear of heavily wooded areas. 3) Use bug spray with DEET or picaridin. 4) After being outside, check yourself, children, gear, and pets for ticks, bathe, and put all clothes worn outdoors into a dryer for 10-20 minutes. If you find an embedded tick, gently remove it using tweezers by pulling close to the skin, avoiding squeezing the tick.

Tick and Heartworm Season is Here
There are several kinds of ticks crawling around Manitoba, including the Deer Tick which is responsible for transmitting Lyme Disease. Symptoms of Lyme Disease include fever, sore joints, lethargy, and a loss of appetite. Ticks tend to latch on in areas with less fur such as ears, eyes, groin, underbelly and paw pads. Make sure you are performing thorough full body checks for ticks on a regular basis. Heartworm is transmitted by infected mosquitos. Symptoms may include mild persistent cough, reluctance to exercise, fatigue, and weight loss. Consult your veterinarian for the best preventative measures and medications for your pets.
Show Your Love & Appreciation
Flowers are a timeless way to show love and appreciation on Mother’s Day. Their vibrant colors and sweet scents beautifully express the gratitude we feel but sometimes struggle to say. From classic roses to cheerful daisies or elegant lilies, each bloom carries a message of care, admiration, and warmth. Gifting flowers is more than a tradition—it’s a heartfelt gesture that brightens a mother’s day and reminds her how deeply she’s cherished. Whether given in a bouquet or planted in a garden, flowers say “thank you” in nature’s most graceful language, making Mother’s Day a little more special and full of love.

A Fresh Start This Spring
This spring feels like the right time to quit smoking. As the air turns warmer and everything begins to grow again, it’s a reminder that change is possible. Quitting isn’t easy, but each day without a cigarette is a small victory worth celebrating. Fresh mornings replace stale habits, and simple things like breathing deeply or walking outside feel new again. There may be cravings and setbacks, but they don’t define the journey. Choosing to quit is choosing health, freedom, and a future with more energy and clarity. Like spring itself, it’s a season of renewal, growth, and becoming stronger than before.
