I live in California, and we are facing some new, tighter water restrictions. I live in an HOA where I don't pay for water (or rather I pay too much for water rolled into flat rate). I don't see the troughs and peaks of my monthly water usage because I do not get a bill. But I have tried to follow the new restrictions all the same. I have also tried to analyze how I use (abuse?) water at home.
Does your state or locale have water-use regulations?
What kind of water-saving habits have you adopted (successfully or unsuccessfully) or would like to adopt?
It has been ages since I let the water run when brushing my teeth. I think that was beaten out of me early as a kid. I have tried to be more cautious of it during hand-washing. I've also gotten into the habit of turning the water off while I am in the shower. I also don't wash my car that often, but that is just laziness.
I have not gone so far as to let urine build up in the toilet, but I know that is not uncommon.
