Aquatober

You don’t have a soul.

You are a soul.

You have a body.

This post is a day late, but it is definitely not a dollar short. In fact, if you join in you will be saving in the long run. What I am talking about here people is Aquatober. A whole month of drinking nothing but water…well and milk or soy milk. A monthly cleanse of eliminating all the sugar-laden beverages from your diet.

Now I do have an unfair advantage over most, since I have already eliminated alcohol and most caffeinated drinks from my system, but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t having a sugary soda here and there. I am still giving up fruit juices, Starbucks delights, and all the delicious cherry limeades I have been drinking. This is all in hopes of a more hydrated, healthy place for my baby to grow and for me to function as well.

Where did I get this ingenious idea? The blog that I look forward to reading the most everyday, Young House Love, is where I found my inspiration. If you like witty writing, mixed with home design, it is the perfect blog for you. So whether you join in on my Aquatober mission or just in reading some good old fashion DIY, you should check out their blog.
