As a VIP, I have little tweaks in the way in which I do things to enable me to feel like I am as ‘normal’ as everyone else. (Even though the strong independent part of me knows that I don’t need to be the same as or normal like everyone else!)
One of my tweaks, is to fill my bath to a successful level by using the timer on my iPhone. First the hot water, then the cold. Of course this isn’t fallible, sometimes the water is still too hot or often too cold.
Either way, I am not flooding the bathroom or even close to washing the floor!
As a busy mum, who has increased her classes and time spent at the gym, it has actually been several weeks since I last had a bath (having showered instead, so I am clean and not smelly)
So imagine my surprise yesterday evening, upon filling my bath as my usual tweak, checking the temperature and getting in that I discover that the water didn’t cover me as much as before.
I stood up and used my hands to measure the level of the water, it was the right amount of water, give or take…. So, there was only one answer for it.
There is less of me in the bath to displace the water !!!! YIPPEE
All that time at the gym and eating lovely seasonal fruit is paying off.
And now back to the drawing board on the timings for the water level?
Or, as I did last night, sit in the lower level bath and fill up when I am in it to get the desired depth and temperature.
Either way, I am a very happy bunny.
