9 & 10 News December 31, 2020 The way my day goes largely depends on the first few beverages I have in the morning. If I don’t have coffee, I know I’ll be unfocused for the day. If I don’t have enough water first thing, I know I’ll probably get tired mid-afternoon. And if for any reason I’m starting the day with alcohol, well, the day probably had no chance of being decent, to begin with. Drinks fuel us. They dictate our day. Our bodies rely on the nutrition and hydration that we provide it. Every year, I make the same resolutions as everyone else. I decide to try and be healthier, in an effort to be happier, and I’m already off to a good start. Instead of being packed like sardines into a little dive with other bar patrons, I’ll be home. I have a rare opportunity to wake up on the first of 2021 not hungover, and I’m going to use that momentum to feel like a health goddess all year (until summer, at least).
