We recently took Maisie to the groomers. When we collected her, she looked absolutely beautiful. However, I was in for a nasty surprise. During the groom, her groomer had spotted some small fleas around her tail area. I hadn’t noticed any signs from her behaviour and fortunately, things were early on. This would hopefully allow us to nip things in the bud quickly. Several years ago when Cassie had fleas, we used flea bombs and sprays from pet shops which worked well. Yet, with a crawling baby in the house I was not keen on taking this approach again. I remember how the sprays and bombs got into my chest and made me cough. I definitely wouldn’t like my young children to breathe it in. So, how could I effectively get rid of the fleas?

3 Ways Students Can Spread Kindness
Guest Post¦ Kindness. It’s everywhere. You can take your pick from the ‘Be Kind’ movement, random acts of kindness, or even ‘World Kindness Day’, which takes place each year on 13 November.
You probably aren’t surprised there’s an actual day for being kind, what with there being a ‘day’ for everything. For example, there’s an International Carrot Day (4 April), ‘Wear a Hat Day’ (the date for this changes, but this year (2022) it’s on 25 March) and a ‘National Black Cat Day’ (which is on 27 October for those of you owned by mini panthers).
We can all do our bit to be kind – whether it’s simply letting someone go in front of us in the supermarket queue (unless they have a huge trolley full of groceries, obvs. We all have our limits!) or sending a message of support to someone you know who’s feeling a bit down.
What else we can do to spread kindness depends on our situations to a certain extent. A stay at home mum could be kind by extending the hand of friendship to another local mum (maybe by inviting her to a baby show) and someone who works near their neighbour could offer them a lift to work instead of leaving them shivering at the bus stop.
As for the younger generation, here are three ways students can spread kindness.
We rescued a stray cat!
Since I went back to work in December, my life have just been ridiculously crazy. Just as I think there’s a bit of a reprieve coming up, something else happens. As such, I feel like I haven’t written many life updates recently. One of the recent ‘something else’s that’s happened was taking in a stray cat. Yep, my crazy cat lady credentials have just taken a massive boost!

Today, the commercial sector gradually realizes the importance of a conducive work environment. Tenants in most areas consider a facility with an air conditioner as a plus, increasing the property value. This means there is a need to reach a wider audience about the crucial factors to note before buying an air conditioner.
