    Usually water or flavored herb teas. Sometimes coffee and occasionally a soda. Never diet anything. Believe it is hazardous to your health, habit forming, and can't stand the taste.

    My containers alway's have a lid on them. So far no spills.

    Life is cruel that way, isn't it? I am battling the same discussion with myself because the vino isn't exactly my friend anymore but some friends are just hard to let go. ho-hum!

    I keep a water bottle on the floor.

    My friend just took up quilting. She pieced 3 quilts in 2 days (while working FT, being a student, and planning her wedding). I asked how she did that. She says she just sits with a beer next to her machine and sews. Lol!
