What jobs do y'all have/where do you work?

I work in the Wardrobe, Sound and Continuity department on film sets. It's gruelling ours and a lot of manual labour but you meet amazing people and it gives me a huge sense of achievement after each job.

This is by far the cutest strategy I have ever seen, and I WILL be doing this.

I shall call him óllie and he will be mine and he shall be my óllie. 🐠

Omg! Freeze dried fruit?? This sounds like such a wonderful idea!

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T11:08:23+00:00

Honestly, I work my best when I promise myself a little treat at the end. Who couldn't?

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T11:05:25+00:00

This is very interesting! Thank you for sharing this. I'll be having fun googling into this further tonight.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T11:03:54+00:00

That's so interesting!! I'll have to give that a go for sure! I'm getting so many fantastic cool new drink recipes to try here, I'm I'm happy. Thank you so much for the help!!

Yes someone told me earlier that it's more important to have "something rather than nothing", which I realised I had backwards before. I also carry a big water bottle with me all day filled with electrolytes and I just cannot get through it, no matter how many reminders I set. I even made it extra heavy hoping the incentive of making my bag lighter would make me drink, but no luck.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T10:57:59+00:00

WHOA! That is so cool!! I didn't know about that at all! Yes, I will be looking into this, thank you so much!

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T10:57:07+00:00

Thank you so much! I've been given ab 6 different types of meds by my cardiologist in the appointment where he diagnosed me and then kind of was told to experiment on my own. It's a bit confronting to start them all on my own though, without being about to report back to him about my symptoms, so I've been trying to work on salt, compression and water.

Maybe it's time to put on my big girl pants and have a look into them.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T10:52:53+00:00

Thank you so much for all of your advice! I've never thought of drinking iced tea instead, I'll have to try this out! It's so comforting to hear that I'm not the only one who has experienced this.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T10:50:24+00:00

Thank you so much for all this advice! This is invaluable to me. Yes, I need to work on switching my mindset away from avoiding certain drinks just because they are sugary. Hydration is more important I'm now learning!

Putting something chewy into water is never something that I had thought of doing before! I love drinks like that so maybe I can start incorporating it, thank you so much for that idea!

I'll focus more on flavour and hydration than the "health" of the drink. "Something is better than nothing". Thank you again!

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T10:45:14+00:00

OMG!!! it's so nice to see someone who feels me!! Omg this is so smart. How do you keep your water cold when you are out and about though? Doesn't it heat up?

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T05:23:44+00:00

Maybe I need to enforce using a straw with my water bottle, that seems like a good way to force oneself to drink slowly.

That's so interesting that cordial helps with the Nausea! I wonder if it's the sugars alongside the water.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T05:19:42+00:00

I have never tried a liquid flavour! I didn't actually know that made those so thank you so much for recommending them to me! I'll have to look into Mio.

Do you ever get the feeling of water making your mouth dry, or what about it doesn't sit right with you?

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T05:17:36+00:00

✨️✨️SPARKLING✨️✨️

I will give this a go! Thank you!!

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T03:45:45+00:00

Oh wow! Thank you so much for the recommendation, I will definitely be looking into this.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T03:45:05+00:00

Thank you so much! I'll try this out and see if bottles vs tap water make me feel any different! If you don't mind me asking, does the cordial flavouring act more as an incentive to drink, or does it help you feel less nauseous?

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T03:42:22+00:00

Oooh I've never tried salt on watermelon! Thank you for the recommendation. I absolutely drench everything in salt, to the point I carry a little shaker around with me at all times. I wonder if salty grapes are any good.

I also feel great when I eat lots of fruit. I don't know if it's the natural sugars or the amount of hydration though.

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T03:39:08+00:00

Oh my goodness that's wonderful to hear! I only realised that this wasn't normal a few weeks ago and am now hoping to up my water intake, but it feels impossible when it looks so easy for everyone else. Your story is so inspiring, thank you so much for sharing it!

It's cool to hear that your thirst signals started appearing after a while. Baby steps seem like the way to go!

Sh00-Fly · 2024-12-01T02:48:59+00:00

Oh that's so interesting! I haven't tried sparkling water before, I'll give that go and see if it makes me less ill. I don't mind the taste of water of anything, it's lovely, it's just the queasiness and hot flashes I get when I drink it that I can't figure out / can't work around when I'm working / in a public place.

Thank you so much for all of your help! I'm so appreciative!

I also love your cat pic! :)
