Yes, I have completely given up my deep baths, and have been doing the short
showers. Also saving the water for potted plants, using small containers for
washing dishes, instead of dishwasher, and cutting down with the washing
machine, lawn going fairly brown, etc. One of the hardest things for me, is
the mellow yellow with the toilet water. I don't like that at all.
