Let hot, steamy water beat on your shoulders after a long day at work before having to do household work - at least 15 min's

Now if you want to throw in shaving legs, brushing teeth, blow drying hair - who knows how long??????
AMEN SISTER!!! long, hot, steamy showers ... who wants to come out?

Shower time?

In & out in 5 minutes or less. If I want to linger, then I would fill the whirlpool tub, get a glass of wine, turn on the music, lower the lights, and call my wife in.

Otherwise, I keep my time in the master bath to a minimum.

Shower time?

I had it drummed into my head when I was young that
*Only Military shower's are allowed*

That's meant *No More* than 4 minutes.

2 minutes would be most acceptable.

You wouldn't believe how long I take when I'm staying at a Hotel!

Shower time?

10 minutes in the shower
5 minutes drying.
5 minutes brushing teeth.
Using a rotary toothbrush. Best thing ever made. Highly recomend you try one.

Shower time?

Well teenagers tend to take long ones lol.

I usually spend a lot of time in there as it's one place other than my truck where everyone will usually leave me alone. I get tired of hearing people talk and asking me a million questions. (in a house with 9 people this is all the time)

That's also why I take a 'Sunday' drive just about everyday, sometimes up to two hours on the weekends. It gets expensive though lol. The cost of sanity........

Used to be able to do it in 15 minutes but as I get older I'm a little more careful with the razor while in the shower. I now also allow myself the luxury of hot water.
yahoo!
umm...nevermind ha.

Shower time?

Showers? I dont know how you people can take MORE then 5 mins. Showers are so tiring having to stand their LOL. I wash up and get the heck out.

Brushing teeth and shaving is done out of shower therefore, I don't consider that.

If you consider bathroom time, I have my bath at night so as to not need one in morning (I live in an igloo therefore its to cold to sweat at night)

And shshshave? I prefer stuble ;-0 Well not really ... I just prefer to not shave and when I do its while I'm on here typing with one hand and using my electric razor with the other

Shower time?

I forgot about that Million:
My dad was a D.I. and that was his thing 4 minutes in time and you were wasting water.
I left home at 16 the day after I graduated never went back.
except once to spend 20 minutes in his shower shaving my legs.
just to tick him off.

First of the three s's thanks won't happen again.
