Did you know?

We often forget that water is such an important part of your day. Most people start off drinking a cup of coffee and forget to rehydrate with water first before consuming any other liquids.

As we sleep our bodies do a lot of work recovering from the day before. Our organs slow down and everything goes into a slight hibernation to rest and repair.

Once you wake up your bodies start to reactivate all these organs which now need hydration to get them operating optimally again. So first thing in the morning it is highly recommended to start off with at least 12-20 oz of water first before drinking anything other liquids. Especially coffee!

Coffee is a natural dehydrate. So if that is your first liquid for the day, you are now placing your body in a deficit for hydration and you will need more water later on to adjust for the lack of water in the morning. This leaves you more thirsty through out the day plus you may find yourself more tired and dragging to get through the remainder of the day. Needing more coffee to keep going.

Tomorrow try adjusting your routine and drinking some water first. I bet you feel better. Your skin wont feel as dry, and you will be less thirsty throughout your day. #water #hydrate #info #healthy #liquid

Help! My toddlers like to HIDE my Stuff!

If you have a toddler you'll totally relate to this pic/story! Especially if your toddler ❤'s to get into your things and hide them . Yesterday we decided to go downtown  to pick up some essentials for the family. When I went to pay I found that my bank card  was missing ! I searched and searched and couldn't find it ! We were super far from home, so I called my hubs  who saved the day by transferring funds  over to my business card. That way we could at least get some grocery's  for the family without having to return home. To add an extra twist to the day, my bank decided to flag ⚠ my purchases for fraud !!
