A couple of thoughts:
Sense of thirst declines with age.
Drinking too much water in a short time can throw off your body's electrolyte balance and cause a dangerous condition.
My urologist told me same thing. Too much water unnecessarily stresses the bladder.
I still need more 💧however.
He was happy with 60 oz trying to get down by midday. Lest I pee all night.
My DIL buys Fiji by the case via Amazon.
Love the water.
Hate the plastic bottles.
Been thinking about my own case. Shame on me.
@CinnamonGirlE @LnzyHou @CJLavoie It is. I've been focusing on reducing it down to as little as possible but its still everywhere.
I bought laundry powder instead of detergent to avoid the plastic bottle. Got the heavy cardboard box it came in, felt proud of myself, opened it to find the powder contained in a plastic bag.
It is in these moments that I am reminded that I cannot let perfect become the enemy of the good. Every mindful action matters.

Good for you. You still used less plastic. Many of us are on that same journey of trying to be less of the problem.
I find myself making or doing more things myself from scratch. And funny thing, it is usually cheaper, and not actually noticeably less convenient :)

I make my own scouring powder for the tub and sink with Baking Soda, Washing soda, and Kosher salt (Its got the grit)
1/2 cup each in a jar and shake it up. Works like a charm

Washing soda?
