Winter Ready

We are in the midst of winter here and due for a rather coolish and wet weekend, with snow forecast in the parts that get a lot of snow, and cold in the other parts (that's us).  We are ready to go, our heaters are warmed up and due to budgetising reasons, mum will be keeping close to home.  She has one reason to venture out, and that is to join her besties for a cheap dinner and movie.  Other than that, it will be comfy clothes, couch and home.

Mum had been feeling a bit blah lately, and so she listened to her doctor (that would be Dr OZ), and bought some vitamins.  She got some Odorless fish oil + vitamin D that she swallows down at dinner.  Even though she is usually sceptical about vitamins, she does actually feel a bit better, and as a result her hair is now getting silky and feels much softer.  Her skin is also not as winter dry as it normally is.  She gets lots of vitamin C and other vitamins through the fresh fruits and veg she eats.  Does your person do any vitamins?

Hope you are all getting ready for your weekends and enjoying the sunshine if you have it.

  1. My human takes LOTS of vitamins - C and iron, the latter because she loses energy without it. And lots of calcium with its supporting minerals and D, for her bones. She does not eat properly a lot of the time and has to supplement for what her diet lacks.

  4. Poppy, we sure hope the vitamins help your mum. Our human takes a multi-vitamin, vitamin D, vitamin C, evening primrose oil capsules, omega-3 capsules and glucosamine. We might have forgotten something. LOL. She IS a believer in them, and feels the omega-3 and vitamin-D help with her mood. (That and we live in a northern climate, so don't get enough vitamin D anyway.)

  5. I take a pre- and probiotic for regular tummy ;-) and Mega Red Krill oil which I tell everyone is a miracle pill. I can definitely tell a difference in my mood and the anti inflammatory properties of omega-3s in the krill oil really really help with my lower back arthritis!

    I'm a cool weather lover, Poppy and can't wait until autumn and winter arrive here. I'm jealous of you getting all cozy this weekend! Have fun!!

  9. Yep, mum has her swarm of bottles. Fishy oil, calcium, vitamin D, glucosamin, plus a multi vitamin. All of which her doc says are good for her. Nothing too weird. Plus her two prescribed pills. Some in the AM, others in the PM.
