This weekend has included... 

attempting to feed erp but getting more on her face than in her mouth.  

10 more thank you cards written (with the goal of 10 more to write today)

curbing a menstrual migraine with all the drugs and water

5x5@50 squats and 5x5@50 ohp

keto pizza casserole

5 mile walk in the early morning heat listening to more of the new Hunger Games book

Which is narrated by Santino Fontana so every time I hear him I can’t help but picture Greg from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

the love of my new mini “happy” mug (pictured with older mug for scale)

Happy weekend to you and you and you you and you.

Hydration nudge that should have posted hours ago. My two new water bottles are amazing. The purple one holds 60 fluid ounces and the Yeti is 32 ounce capacity. As of 5:30 I've downed 70 fluid ounces and the Yeti is still fully stocked with ice. It's now 8:45 and I've downed the complete 92 fluid ounces and still have ice in the Yeti. Definitely hydrating like a boss today.

Hydration nation

One thing I noticed right away in South America was that when you go out to eat, there’s rarely water on the table. If you want water you have to ask for it, and often pay for it (and they’ll bring you a bottle). This is in very sharp contrast to most American restaurants where you get water as soon as you sit down.

My take on this is that people there are used to not drinking water as frequently as we (Americans) think we should, not that they are just dehydrated all the time. I also don’t think it was a water safety issue; we drank tap water at other times and had no issues. (Maybe I’m too cavalier? But we were in big cities, and I was thinking more about Zika.)

Yet I found this very hard to get used to, particularly in Santiago where it was very hot. And I stress that as a visitor to these countries that it was totally my issue, but we would roll into lunch, be seated and then have to order and wait for water. We weren’t prepared. Sometimes they would give us a 16-ounce bottle to split between myself and my husband, which would have saved us money if we weren’t so thirsty. I’m sure our habit of carrying water around was one of many ways people picked us out as Americans.

Hydration nudge! Got this sucker for FREE with my reward points today. And it’s pretty. Also purchased a desktop fan, this will help a lot with broken AC issues and inconsistent temperatures. Bonus it’s purple.

I’m only gonna post intermittently about my spinning because I’m participating in Tour de Fleece (coincides with the Tour de France, yes). I’ve started back up my crafty blog – @navascraftycorner (navascraftycorner.tumblr.com) I haven’t done much but I’ll be posting updates on that.

We walked a LOT today. My feet hurt.

My co-worker asked if everything was okay because I've been in and out of the bathroom all morning Yes, just my body enjoying 70 fluid ounces of water.
