I changed my mind about bottled water again

I've changed my mind about bottled water again. We're going to buy it and keep it on hand. I thought it was too expensive; however, both Mom and I need to drink more water. Apparently, we won't drink water if we have to get it out of the faucet and then put ice in to cool it down. In addition, the bottled water is more convenient. The bottled water also seems to taste better at room temperature then the water out of the faucet.

This morning I took Mom in for a CAT scan of her abdomen and on the way home stopped at Food 4 Less and bought a 35 count case of 16.9 FL. OZ. of bottled water. I'll see how long this last us, then decided if I want to get two cases each time I buy it.

When I loaded the water into my car, I noticed it was heavy. It's the first time I've noticed the weight of the water, so I'm not sure if I have a problem or what. I didn't feel well today, which may be why I noticed the weight of the case of water. In addition, I usually buy a 24 count case of water instead of a 35 count case. When I arrived home, I did manage to get the water into the house, but it was a struggle.

I’ve decided to stop buying bottle water

I've decided to stop buying bottled water. It cost too much and I can't reuse the bottles. Therefore, I'm going to buy a couple of containers at one of the grocery or drug stores to put water in when we leave the house.

I use the water out of the facet to make ice so going from bottled water to tap water isn't going to be a big change. It will help us live within our budget. I put the plastic bottles in the recyclable bins. When I took the bins out a week or so ago, I noticed that there were a lot of plastic bottles in the bin. There were more plastic bottles then cans. Of course, I won't refuse a bottle of water is someone offers it to me; I'm just not going to buy it any more.
