I live in NC. We are in the middle of a terrible drought. Something like 15 inches below average. The lakes are very low…one is even almost dry.
We aren’t the family with a beautiful, well maintained lawn. Or the people that wash and detail their cars. So, the restrictions haven’t really affected us too much. But, I’ve still been trying to conserve as much water as possible.
Like, teaching the boys to shut the water off while they brush their teethe. And practicing the old mantra, “If it’s yellow let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down.” But, man, my bathrooms are starting to stink. And they need to be cleaned more often too. So, if I am cleaning the bathrooms more often (which uses water) am I saving water?
