    Management & Staff want all us residents at Assisted Living to stay well Hydrated, particularly now with the Stay in Place going on with the Virus. Staff moves by our apartments and the hallways with a big cart loaded with non alcoholic beverages for our consumption. They do this several times a day.

    Hydrated, oh yeah. Two pots of coffee a day, and sometimes even water in between.

    I drink plain water daily..
    on average about 80 or more ounces daily..
    That is water,... coffee and juices don't count.. they are not water...
    I have been doing this for the past 20 years or more..

    I don't drink water purposely, just drink according to thirst.

    Yup. At least a gallon of my own recipe I call the witches brew. I’ve described it in at least 2 other threads but if ya’ll do not remember seeing it, I’ll let ya know when you want to know. It’s crazy good stuff!!
