Purist Water Bottles

I learned recently that we should be drinking 3.7 liters of water a day (2.7 liters for women). It was tough for me to reach that quota because my bottle was so small, and I had to twist the cap every time to take a sip (lol, it’s a lot of effort okay?). On a different note, I’ve been trying to ditch Hydroflasks and Swells because they leave the smell of drinks that aren’t water and their straws are really hard to clean (again, first world problems). So Alex told me about Purist. The inside of Purist bottles are constructed with a thin wall of glass, so no smell, and easier to clean, yay! I got the Founder 32oz with a Union top, so it’s easy to take a sip and no straws to clean. It’s been about two weeks, and ya boy is a hydrated happy camper.

Hydrapeak roadster 40oz tumblr w handle and 2-in-1 straw lid

Yes it is a stanley dupe. But it is SO MUCH BETTER. the straw mouthpiece can be folded down so that it’s not open to the air all the time and it’s actually leakproof. The sheer size of this vessel doubles as a weapon when fully filled w water. The insulation works so well for hot&cold drinks. Mine keeps ice cubes unmelted for almost 24 hrs. The wide lid opening makes it easy to clean the inside. The handle is so solid and perfect. I have dropped her many times and she is sturdy. You will never have to suffer the fate of running out of water too early… and the size of this thing + the straw makes you drink so much more water. If you dont want to use a straw, there’s a sip mouthhole for hot drinks. Basically everything a Stanley bottle is, but addresses all it’s short comings. I bought mine for less than $30CAD after tax at winners but you can buy it online on their website for like $25USD. ALSO LIFETIME WARRANTY which I have already claimed once bc my lid was getting gross (one caveat but oh well) Everywhere I go people always ask me about my giant water bottle. I love her.

Drinking tap water

My faucet is moldy. My pipes are rusted. My cups are dirty. But you bet your fucking ASS I’m not buying bottled water. No siree not for me. A brita? Oh sorry I don’t remember becoming a millionaire.

Starting over

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.” — Anaïs Nin This is uncharacteristically raw and personal, even for me, and pretty heavy! I know many of you have seen me posting through it and I feel safe to talk about it openly now that I’ve safely landed at the start of my new life. It’s honestly even a little bit embarrassing but I think it’s important to share. I’ve never publicly mentioned it on here, but I have a husband; as of Friday, we’d have been together for 11 years, and we’ve been married for 3 years as of 2/22. I realize now that I wanted to explore what I looked like outside of my relationship with him because I had lost that. This is why PI.FYI has been so meaningful to me as a space to express myself and connect with people—to rediscover my voice. I had been living a lie this entire time, to others but worst of all to myself. He’s been verbally and emotionally abusive, physically but without touching me, to the point that every day I spent with him I was in danger. I’ve been shrinking myself and walking on eggshells to avoid making him insecure and provoking his casual put-downs and fits of rage, while hanging on for dear life to the threads of good I could see. I’ve wanted so badly to leave, more than anything, but I felt like there was no way out and that this was just something I would need to endure indefinitely—but someone who is so very dear to me helped me see that I have wings to fly, not by acting as my savior but by reminding me of my own power. The emotional safety they built and the gentle care they showed me made me feel like I could open up to them. With their encouragement I was brave enough to tell the truth to my friends, my family, my boss, and they have received me with warm, loving and open arms and rallied to support and protect me. The financial and  logistical aspects were the most intimidating to me and it’s going to be tough for a while but I’m going to be better than okay! Now I’m opening up to you. This isn’t the only abuse I’ve suffered in my life, and my old therapist told me she believed it was my mission to share my strength and light with others to inspire them and show them that change is possible. I hope that by sharing this, I can reach even just one person who is going through something similar and show that they are not alone, and they are not weak. People with certain backgrounds may be more vulnerable to abuse, but it can happen to anyone. It thrives in darkness, shame, and isolation—and breaking that silence is the first step toward freedom. Leaving is the scariest thing I have ever done but I have so many angels around me, and I am endlessly grateful. Thank you for being here with me 💌

Never changing

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
