Quite good thanks, @Shaz51
Still feeling warm from the sun at the tennis court earlier today, played less than intended. I watched in the shade because I have to be careful of getting too hot, with medication I'm taking. My tan is even darker now!
I have been appreciating my parents' company more since I've been well, too. I'm happy I made the decision to move back in with them.
@tyme @Shaz51 how was your weekend?

Good morning 😊 @Shaz51 @Blackcloud @Bunniekins @Mustang67
No plans for me today. Waiting for dog walk to come in ~1 hour. Hopefully a restful day for me as i have been very tired last few days despite not doing much.

@AlwaysMyself tired can be so many things. Including heat fatigue and cognitive load.
If I have sweat dripping from my brow, it’s a 4 litre day. If I’m not sweating, I have to disguise fluids as smoothies or slushys.
If don’t consume enough fluids, my brain 🧠 will go into power saving mode.

Ooh thats interesting that you notice such a difference depending on how much water/fluid you drink @Glisten !
I am pretty hopeless with drinking water overall -- always have been. But i try to be more aware of it the past 6 months or so and finding ways to make it more palatable. I also find it hard to just drink things lol ! 😆 i sip things over many hours usually.
But i've been "pretty good" this past week with drinking a litre of water on average each day (this does not include iced coffees!).
Longstanding joke with friends that my "water intake" was pepsi/coke. But i also tried not to drink more than 600ml of it a day (always sugar-free)..the exception to this was if doing sports or physical activity - then i might get thirst.
I think my body just doesnt tell me i'm thirsty much? I try now to just "drink something if i can stomach it", and not rely on my body to tell me if it thirsty lol.
