Re: How often do you bathe - take a shower?
Wash hair two or three times a week. I put my hair up when I bathe. When I'm working I do it in the sink as part of the face cleaning and other hot water activities, but keep it quick.
Bathe every night BUT, we share the water. Sounds gross, but when we were first married there was never hot water in our apartment, and we couldn't afford it in CA. Korea, clean water was hard to find. Etc. Hubby can easily shower for 30-45 minutes, 3 times a day, without a thought.
So, our system...after gardening or workouts, we rinse/wipe off visible dirt and sweat in the mud room, then at night we run one tub of water, and we bathe in turns before the water gets cold.
Growing up, frugal mom had kids wash feet off every night, bathed on Saturday nights for Sunday church. Period. When I hit high school, I was allowed to shower twice a week, which was great.
