Im still very energetic, ive been getting up at 5.30 each morning, having 2 large mugs of tea then down to beach for a long walk, then home and on the go all day, espeically in all this heat im very surprised at myself........Anyone else on sea kelp who thinks they also feel better ?????..........Sheila

Posters on sea kelp please keep us updated of how things are with you........Im doing great , the energy surge is amazing , god I was a dead slug before sea kelp.....:eek:.....Hope you all have a peaceful healthy week end........Sheila

I have been on these for just over a week after seeing your post about them. I felt so tired listless and aches and pains all over, couldnt do anything for more than 20 mins without having to sit down.

I am now totally amazed as of yesterday I have loads of energy, dont have to keep sitting down and have not needed an afternoon nap.

Today I have steam cleaned my kitchen and bathroom and walked into town and back.

It has to be the tablets as nothing else has changed.

So many many thanks for the post, I had not heard of them before so wouldnt have thought of trying them.

cheapskate - rather than suggest autism, I would suggest looking at getting someone to look at all the options, maybe when she next tells you of issues she is having.
Or if she discusses the issues the kids are facing you could say ooh a friend on MSE has mentioned similar issues with her child who is autistic - I can ask for some suggestions if you like? And then see if she pick up on it.

WOW , im so pleased for you,:T......Brilliant that it also works for you too.........Im the same too, got so much more energy than ive had for 12 years , even this hot weather doesnt bother me , and it use to be terrible when hot , absolutely drains me , now im ok with the hot weather..........

I only tried them cos Mar was feeling fit and very well on them , and I remember how drained she was without them..............

I wonder how many lurkers on here are also on them and they also have good results.....

Weather lovely again here today ,had a bit of sea mist to start with , we were forcasted a bit of rain but as usual that didnt materialize , and its a lovely sunny evening..........................

Been to fun dog show this arvo, and my little rosie won 2 rosettes and one cup:D...got one for best golden oldie ,second best dog in show, I was really pleased , we think she was judged mainly on her age of 16 years and how well she looks on it, she just follows me everywhere and dont wear a lead , she lost without her mum.....:). Little sweetie.........Sheila........

Shegar imagine winning second place in a dog show at 16! How cool

We did a visit to the zoo today, DS15 moaned and complained all day and generally ruined the whole day because he wanted to stay in and sit in his room all day

Hello all
we have thunder and lightning but it doesn't feel any fresher at all...

I am desperate to harvest the first planting of spuds (and my first ever spuds) but have been advised to wait..they have flowered (and I have had 'tomatoes' on some, which I have removed).

I also have the last of the blackcurrants to pick - will be my third lot of jamming - this is uunheard of. And I have decided I need to 'catch' 40 runners to make new plants. So more then 40 in reality in case some don't thrive.

Oh - I'm in charge of the Flylady thread for next week - so I have been [STRIKE]plotting[/STRIKE] thinking of things to include. I've thought of 1 :rotfl:

Cheapskate

Evening peeps, humid here and getting worse, despite some rain.

kidcat, thanks very much for the tips, will use them as one avenue. It's obvious to quite a few people outside the family that there's something amiss, I hate to say "not normal", nasty phrase, but you get what I mean - so many little things that are adding up (for each of the 3 family members). Would it be ok to PM you if I have more questions, so I don't take the thread off topic?

I discovered 2 new chazzas today when I went to work, real little gems! Got 2 shirts for DS, 2 tops for DD, all NExt for £2.70, then in CS round the corner, 2 pairs knitting needles (perfect, no nicks, bends, etc) and a DG Hessayon veg planner for £2.40, not bad considering the branded CS in town would have priced them all at double. I will be returning, esp when they get out their winter stuff! :rotfl:

From our 3 baby blackcurrants there are about 12 ripe berries, so a VERY small crop, but they look healthy, so am hopeful for next year. Spuds looking good, but I will be checking for mollusc lifeforms first thing in the morning - I share GQ's hatred of the blighters! Strawbs - had about 6 decent berries before the birds got in on the action, but there are loads of runners, so tomorrow's jobs include sticking 'em in small pots ready to separate them from mum - aah!

A xo

cheapskate - of course am happy to help
