I don’t like being 4 entries behind so I’m writing another one now to lessen the gap.

I’ve been trying to drink more water recently. It’s hard to get into the habit, but once you’re there it’s natural. Zero calories, keeps you hydrated, and in this weather, in my house, it’s always cold XD (I hate drinking lukewarm water unless I’m really thirsty and that’s all there is…)

I don’t drink tap water. This the the result of a lifelong conditioning of tap water at my house not being safe to drink. Even though the water here is supposedly okay, it’s still well water, so I buy gallons at the grocery store. This results in a lot of plastic bottles lying around… we do recycle them, though.

I’m currently using a pink Kleen Kanteen bottle after the Nalgene plastics scare, even though my bottle wasn’t a Nalgene at the time I figured, this is probably more sanitary anyway. I do miss having a straw though…

I had to get the sports pop sippy top for it, though. The open mouth was just begging for a disaster every time I tried to drink out of it…
all down the front of my shirt ( ｉдｉ )

Neosporin is my new favorite medical thing. I had a blister on my right hand from chopping ice, and I can’t play handbells with something like that, so I decided to drain it (using a sterilized needle, obv) and smother it with neosporin afterwards. Like a day later, completely healed. AMAZING. I have to remember to put it on my kitty scratches more often…
