What is the amount of water you should drink each day? I was told I should drink half my body weight, or I should drink eight cups of water every day. Is that 8 oz, 12 oz, or a 20 oz cup you should drink? I have never liked drinking water 1 cup maybe, but more –
I now weigh 270 lbs. Yes, it’s a lot, but I am down 29 lbs in 6 months. Oops I got off of the subject. How much water would I need to drink if the water was in a 12 oz cup? Let me ask google another question.
Google did say you can drink 10 to 12 cups of water, but that is without food. There is water in food, so with that in mind. Here is a better answer to my question from google:
Practical breakdown
Water from drinks : ~8ā9 cups/day (2ā3 liters)
Water from foodĀ Ā : ~2ā3 cups/day (0.5ā0.75 liters)
Total fluidsĀ Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā : ~10ā12 cups/day
I couldnāt bring myself to drink another cup of water, so I bought a watermelon, and ate until I was full. Water is in the name watermelon, so technically I had at least three cups of water today. A little water is better than no water at all.

ps. Please forgive my mistakes. Tired eyes are ready to close…
I cannot believe I was looking at an old picture and I was about to cry. I donāt remember taking it, but the sight of me holding a tiny baby made me smile. I remember holding that baby, walking with him, rocking him softly to calm him down as he cried. I remember those dark eyes looking at me as he ate, lips curling into that happy baby smile everyone said was gas.
I turned my phone off, closed my eyes for a second, and then smiled knowing my little one isnāt so little anymore. He may not live in the same house as I do or even close by. I can call him, hear his voice or even look at him on the screen.
I am laughing, because if I ever had a need to see him as he is today in 2026 all I have to do is ask him to come over, and then I can hold my little one once again. I am now an empty nester. When I first heard that fraze I thought I canāt wait, because then I can live my life (still praying for my childās good health, a calm mind, dreams coming true, a safe place to live, and someone who will Love and Fight for him) as I did before? I was wrong.
**side note – I came across my favorite movie. I saw this movie so many times, I can almost tell you word for word, and mute the parts I donāt like. This movie also makes me want to cry. Actually a few tears have already fallen and Sleepless in Seattle has only been on for 23 minutes.

I am now laughing, because my son can always make me smile. This movie makes me want to dream and set them free. On that thought let me get back to working on my book. I am aiming for August first.

A thought came to me yesterday as I walked to the closest chair on my fifteen minute break, so I could take my shoes off, and stop thinking about work. This was that thought, āIt is time I stop surviving and start Livingā. I have known working paycheck to paycheck, with no savings, and more bills to even try to start saving. There was no time for a second thought, because fifteen minutes was over.
I had every attention to workout a plan to start rebuilding who I want to be, but once again life got in the way. Pain coming from every part of your body just wants to shut down and relax. Tummy yelling, āfeed me,ā and your nephew repeatedly asking, ādo you want to play?ā He sounds really sad when you tell him to give you a moment and not think about how you just played with him for thirty minutes before getting something to eat.
I lost track of what I was to do yesterday, but this morning two videos on youtube almost said word for word what I was thinking. The title had me clicking before I had my coffee or a second thought.

Ā I had planned to wake my nephew up earlier, but I have been waiting to start a tai chi workout, so I am going to keep my word, and do just that. I will also take out an hour to work on my book and go through some crochet blankets. IĀ am a little afraid to sell them on Facebook Marketplace, but I know who I am and who stands with me.

There are way too many words and thoughts going through my head. I started working on my book, but then I started thinking about the game I need to play in order to get points to get an amazon gift card.
I did my math and without a coffee pot I have to have at least one 16 oz cup of ice coffee and I am only able to get maybe four cups out of one bottle. I need a coffee pot. I am just hoping it will be extra hot.
I am still looking for another job, but I am really wanting a homebase job. I need to try and get some kind of computer training.
I am NOT going to give up, because I am so over working where I am at with no chance for a better future and I am not going to get any younger. I NEED to start aiming for a better tomorrow while I can.
They say itās never too late to start something new. I say, āIf you donāt start, then you will never set your dream free, and I want to know I at least tried. I am not just writing down what I want, but how I am going to do it.
I want to encourage as many people as I can to write down their dreams and then write how to set those dreams free. āDreams do come true, if you put in the work, ā that sounds like it came from a movie?
Someone once told me my idea was just a vision board, but in a book form. Another person said thatās just writing in a dairy. I donāt care what you call your special book, I say if you can write down your dream and figure out how they become more than dreams. You can name your book anything you like, just donāt keep your dreams on paper, and be ready to set them free,
In this composition notebook there are pages where you can write a quick note, a poem or two. There are also some blank lines where you can fill in with a short story or a special thought. Ever read a book and wish you could go back to it, because you remember the story, but not the author. Here is your chance to have a list of the books you liked, the movies you enjoyed watching, and the list goes on. Enjoy creating..
A notebook is more than pages stacked together in a pretty shell for taking notes, jotting down a quick thought, an idea for a story, or even a poem or two. āA Time to Write is a composition notebook where words may have a way to make you feel calm, create something new, or encourage you to set all your dreams free. Writing them down can be fun in this book, which has lines like any other book and a cute page to take notes.
āA Time to Write,ā is a composition notebook where words have a way to make you feel calm, create something new or encourage you to set all your dreams free. The lines of this composition notebook may not have any words now, but I am sure someone can change that. There are also a few pages that have a – to do list, and a debt tracker for bills or savings. Have fun with your wordsā¦.

P.S – Sorry, words are off I am a little too tired to fix, and I still don’t like computers…
I found myself falling back into my slow steps, steps that will not help me keep my word, and that isnāt good. I came home with the thought I would work on my book after my coffee, but my favorite online game (Township) was opened before I remembered I was supposed to start working on a post.
I am trying to recall the anime or cartoon show I saw on HBO where the daughter asked her father what the word, āprocrastineā meant, and he was trying to explain what her mother had said about him. Then the little girl said she thought it meant being lazy.
Procrastinate : to keep delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring:
In my case I enjoy creating new stories from something I saw or finding an answer to a question or two. I am not going to lose who I am and the person I want to be. Whatās the point of dreaming if it stays a dream?
I am watching one of my favorite anime, My Neighbor Totoro and I am smiling. I am also thinking about my next trip to Charlotte Yarn. https://charlotteyarn.com/ where you can not only buy yarn, but they have classes, and where we come together to crochet or knit. I have an hour left, and I need to work on my book, and eat an early dinner.
