One bucket only

As part of cleaning the bathroom, I patched up a small area of grout with sealant just below the waterspout. On the following day after a run, I wanted to shower, but I didn’t want to disturb the sealant, as it hadn’t quite cured. So I proceeded to fill a two-gallon bucket with warm water, placed it in the bathtub and washed my body using an empty yogurt tub. It felt so primitive and basic to affuse two pintfuls of water to wet my body, lather my head and body and rinse off with the remaining water. I didn’t actually need the entire two-gallons and was surprised to see how little water I really needed. A bucket may become a permanent fixture in my bathroom.
