    Timed myself today--4-min shower, water turned off for part of it.

    Another short shower--helped along by my desire to maximize my available time for a quick get-together I carved out with my friend. :-) I have also been taking what I think is called a navy shower--turning off the water while I'm soaping up.

    I've been taking shorter showers--but I have to confess: I have to very consciously work at it. It's so easy for me to zone out once the water hits me. But I'm hoping that over time, as I get used to doing it faster, the habit will take hold.

      I feel your pain.  Especially this time of year when a hot shower is manna from heaven.
