Raindrops Keep Falling

In fall of 2017, I moved into a new house and it had a rainfall shower head in the master bathroom. I'd never had one of these before, but they're supposed to be great, so I was like, cool, I'll try it.

And in the beginning, I loved it. It was so relaxing!

But then it started to get annoying. It took forever to get the shampoo out of my hair, and while the rainfall was relaxing when I had plenty of time, it was stress inducing when I was trying to get somewhere on time. Like to my day job.

It reached a point where there was one day a week that I enjoyed the shower head and six days where I was irritated by how much time it was taking.

Finally, I decided that I needed a shower head that had more oomph to it. I found one with six different settings and had the handyman install it. OMG! I love it! It's still a water-conserving item, but the shampoo is gone like lightning and I get out of the house faster.

It makes me wonder if most people move faster in the morning than I do. I am a dawdler. When I don't have to work, it can take me hours to drink a couple of cups of coffee. In fact, I have to restart my coffee maker so the timer doesn't shut it off before I'm done with my java. It's two hours before the auto shutoff kicks in--does this show how much time I can waste?

Anyway, it's amazing how awesome it is to be able to shower fast again and take my time when I want to, not because the shower head is dictating my speed.
