Several years ago I had my physical and then left on a work trip. One day the Dr's office called me - "you MUST come in immediately!! It is urgent!!!"
I asked "what's the problem?"
"Your serum sodium is dangerously low, the Dr must see you NOW!!!".
"Well, I am out of state and can't come in. Let me speak to the Dr"
A few minutes later the Dr gets on the phone. I told him where I am and can't come in.
His response "You are dangerously close to passing out or going into a coma. (I felt fine and no symptoms) Serum sodium is 80, should be 135."
"So what do I do?"
"Just add a teaspoon of salt daily to your diet and you will be fine".
HUH? Must see me now? Add some salt and I will be fine? What's the emergency? Needless to say, I was drinking a lot of water so I added some salt to my diet. Now I just eat normally, don't add salt to my food, and never had the problem again.
Hubs and I just had our ex-smocker low-dose CT for lung cancer. According to our doctor it's a new screening test covered by most insurance companies. If you haven't had one, please talk to your primary.
CDC - Who Should Be Screened for Lung Cancer?

Is that the test that's being advertised quite a bit on TV lately, where they show a woman climbing a mountain of cigarettes?
Hanging out at the pool:
This has not been a good week for me. Some may remember I spilled water and lost the A and S keys on my laptop. Well, yesterday I had a spasm and dumped half a cup of coffee.on my laptop. The snap and crackle sounds along with a white screen of death leads me to suspect that there there is no CPR that can revive the laptop. My daughter said she is going to make my desk a no drinking zone!
Nah; you just need a sippy-cup for drinking. If you occasionally lose control of what you are drinking, that is no reason to quit drinking, any more than we would mistreat that larger portion of the population with the same problem: we just give them their drinks in unspillable containers. It's normal for the very young to occasionally drop their drinks; no shame that life has brought you to a similar situation.
You're not alone; try googling for [ adult sippy cup ]. You will be surprised by the number of choices.
EDIT: This one is not for you (unless I have seriously misread what kind of person you are), but when I saw it in the list on Amazon, I cracked up, and just had to share it:

Or for the whole East Coast. That track could swing north and stay strong, sucking energy from the warm waters of the Gulf Stream all the way.
My sil must must must drink his coffee from a sippy cup! His physical dexterity is way off! All of his power is in his brain. He is brilliant!
Others beat me to it, but I was going to suggest any number of travlers cups. Our son got us ones made by Hydro Flask that are amazing. They come in different colors and will keep your beverage cold or hot for a full day or more! They're pricey, but work great. We use the tumblers for ice water at dinner and then I keep mine by my seat in the evening because the tumbler doesn't sweat and with the lid on it you don't have to worry about spills.
