On November 19th, explore the variety of carbonated beverages with caffeine and celebrate National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day.
Some people cannot have caffeine due to medical reasons, and others choose to avoid caffeine as a personal choice. Then there are the millions of people who reach for the caffeine every morning (I am raising my hand) and sometimes all day long (I put my hand down). The same applies to carbonated beverages. Today’s celebration combines the two of them.
Caffeine acts as a central nervous system stimulant, temporarily warding off drowsiness and restoring alertness. Ninety percent of adults in North America consume caffeine daily. Some people notice sleep disruption after drinking beverages containing caffeine. Though, others see no disturbance at all.
I drink coffee in the morning because the bible says so - (the Book of Andy) - but I really do not drink sodas. Growing up, mom never bought any so we did not keep them in the house (for this, I am grateful). But we drank the hell out of some iced tea- still do.
However, these days - once in a while, I just want a Dr, Pepper or a Coke - not often, but sometimes it’s just a must-have.
Happy National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day. I shall have a Dr. Pepper later today to celebrate.
I start my first day of vacation, part 1, today. I will not login and check my email - I will not login and check my email!!!!! Actually, I probably will not. I am heading to the UT Southwestern Spa and Resort (hospital) for plasma exchange and to get the dressing changed on my port in a few hours. The plasma exchange usually wipes me out for the rest of the day so I anticipate a good nap this afternoon.
What is on your schedule today? Are you ready for Thanksgiving?
Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day and whatever you do today and every day, do it with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one! And as always:
...wear a mask
...be kind and compassionate to one another
...dance/sing/laugh it out. It might not help but it sure as hell couldn't hurt.
Peace, Love and Blessings to you all.
-AJ
