Well.... I had to get out....

I had to leave our home today for someone coming to do some things in the home. I threw on a comfy dress (it is almost a moo moo) and headed to the library. I felt that would be a calm place to go and I could stroll easily and sit if needed. I could also hang out in my car as well. Our library is surrounded by beautiful trees, so it is a really calming place to park. I will be honest I am wiped out from it. I even had a random stranger ask me if I was okay and told me I looked pale and exhausted. LOL!! Well, it was true I suppose. 



I did check out a book and for the life of me I cannot remember the name of it. I know that is bad! Haha! I haven't really been able to read because I am so foggy brained but thought I would try to read it.  I have it in a book basket now so I will have to share the name of it later. 


I am also trying to wean myself off soda. I love a good coca cola. Sigh. Like daily! Sigh. It is more about the fizz than anything. I just feel like I need it. So, I tried this drink from Aldi called Waterloo. They have a lot of different flavors. I am usually not a fan of flavored sparkling water drinks, but I was so pleasantly surprised that this was so good. 




I think it is a nice healthier alternative to help myself wean off sodas. It is definitely not a coca cola, but it has a nice crisp fizz and a good flavor. It will have to do. 


I did some laundry, watered some plants, and rested today. I put some meatballs in the crockpot for Italian Meatball Subs for our supper. 


Do you like Sparkling Water? Curious if anyone does! If so, what are your favorite brands and flavors?


Until Next Time,

Yes, I like sparkling water. We have tried different ones, but we seem to always come back to Bubly. But I have to admit that the Waterloo that you have pictured does look appealing. Rest up, my sweet friend.

Dear Chrissy, I love libraries. I like sparkling water. I stopped drinking soft drinks about 4 years ago and you really get used to it and don't miss them.
I have been pre-diabetic for about 10 years now.
Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️

That sparkling water looks very refreshing, though I never drink sparkling water, always still, and plain, for me. I don't drink many fizzy drinks at all.

Thank you!!! Yes, I will try that one too soon.

That is what my mama said!! LOL! She said, if strangers are saying that you need to go home. LOL!

I love plain water but I sure do wish I didn't like that fizz. LOL!
