Reduce This!
Step 3:

Water use reduction. So, the no toilet paper thing is going pretty well except that sometime I forget and accidentally grab toilet paper just out of habit...doh!! But slowly I am retraining my brain.

So now it is water reduction. This step will not include laundry (I am saving that for another week). Next week I don't know if there will be a new step since we will be on vacation and I will be busy visiting with family and frolicking around the Midwest, but I will try. So here's what this part of our water use reduction will entail: Short cool showers (5 min or less). Washing dishes in a tub (ie. not letting the water run while washing) and using water that is warm, but not hot. I have to buy a little tub for this and I am not sure where I am going to get one....hmmmm...I will figure it out.
At some future time we will deal with the laundry and the collecting of bath water for other things.
