Winter Means Longer Showers

If there’s anything worse in the world then having to wake up early in the morning, it’s having to wake up early on a cold morning. That’s what I’ve been doing lately as I’ve taken over responsibility for getting my daughter (and her little brother) to school on time each day. We can’t afford to keep our house heated overnight and the timer on our thermostat refuses to work, so this all ads up to one simple conclusion: longer, hotter showers in the morning. I’ve always been a shower junkie and have been extremely unsatisfied with the mediocre shower heads in my low cost apartment. Enter Faucet.com and their great deal on the Hansgrohe Stratos Shower Tower Custom Shower System. Not only does it come with your choice of chrome or brushed nickel finish (I’m going with the chrome), but it also includes a 3 jet handshower, 5 bodyjets, a frosted accessory shelf and an adjustable wallbar (which means I can easily slide my six-foot self directly under the spray!)
