Patricia Stewart 10/18/2016 6:40 AMI never thought I could do it but I did, I brushed my teeth without having the water running and most of all I did the 5-minute shower. The most impressive part was that I showered without having the water constantly running. I could do this every day. My water bill will be reduced drastically. Yippeee!!
