I have to make a conscious effort to drink water, and my health requires that I do so. In order to not be dehydrated and sick, I carry a water bottle wherever I go.

I had a really cool NES water bottle that I loved because it had a push-button flip top. The less effort it takes for me to get to the water, the better! But eventually, the top broke and I begrudgingly had to get another water bottle.

Got one off Amazon (during lockdowns), and I just always had issues with it. Too big, flip top would come open in my bag sometimes, hard to clean, etc. I finally asked for a water bottle for Christmas as the one thing I wanted, and my SIL came through.

The flip top is SO easy to clean, the button is great, it has a handle that can flip up & down and doubles as a safety that covers up the button (so no more accidental openings!!), it has a pour spout AND a clever af straw-less sip option built into the top and it is just.... so good. She got me a bright orange one, because that was the only color they had in the store at the time, and she was worried I would have preferred a darker, more neutral color. Nope! Turns out, it's perfect for making sure I don't constantly lose my water bottle anymore!

As you can see, I will ramble to anyone who asks about it, because it's just so damn good.

I recently realized that it comes in different sizes, too!!

So anyone in the market for a damn good water bottle, check out the "owala"-brand. It's extremely inexpensive, great quality, lots of color & size choices, and it's just great. I swear I'm not a company shill– just a passionate hydro homie.

Here's a photo of mine. Yours will not come with stickers. Gotta supply your own. Sorry!

Loved reading that, ever thought about writing?

Thank you!

Think about writing a lot, but writing seems like a hard gig these days. Plus, most of my writing is rambling thoughts, so I'm not sure I could find the right audience for it.

Appreciate it, though. (:
