I saw the letter where everyone should cut back on water. When the time comes I will call the water company and tell them what we did to save water. We will have a hard time to use less water...shorter showers?....we already buy bottle water....wash larger loads of clothes?.... run the dishwasher every other day?.....

My husband said he will just pay that extra cost; because he is not changing more of his life and home. He said we did our share already.

I will still make that call to the city water and try to get them to see my point of saving water already.

It won't matter. People tried that last time there was a drought and they were already conserving.

Of course, there will be a family minimum allowance, based on the number of people in the home.

When the water company in another town got out of hand with the major high cost of water. We took things in our own hands and drilled for water on our land. That water waters the land, and we buy water for inside the home.
