My water saving adventure continues


So, in my new found idealism for water conservation I have done a few things:

1-I have an appointment next week to get the grass replaced with synthetic turf.

2-I place a 3 gallon bucket in the shower to catch the water that would run down the drain while I am waiting for the shower to get warm. This water is then used to water the plants, garden or whatever I have outside that needs watering. I am capturing and using water that would otherwise run down the drain.

3-I have reduced the water level in the 3 toilets in my house so that they use half a gallon less per flush than they previously did.

4-I no longer shave in the shower.

These items should easily reduce my water usage by 50%. And I am totally happy about it!
