Bath or Shower?

Feet in a Bathtub - There are few sensations quite as wonderous as a relaxing bath at day's end.

I quite love a relaxing bath, with or without bubbles, at day's end. In fact, I'm starting to prefer bathing to showering, though I do turn the shower on to rinse off when I've finished. So, are there any fellow bathers out there, or am I all alone in the my bathtub?

I'm the same way, loving to just soak . . . I wish I was careful enough to bring a book with me, but I always end up getting the pages wet, and I can't have that!

I have a huge garden tub; which I love to sit and soak in, with bubbles and sea scented bath salts.....the perfect ending to a day!!! Combine that with a few candles...and the kids asleep....what more could a person want????? If I need to get somewhere, I do take a shower...or when I come in the house after working my horses..then I also rinse off in the shower before my bath....get so dirty... And finally, with you, my dear friend.....I would never presume to answer whether or not you are all alone in your bathtub...LMAO....ROFL...*grin*

Ah, candles! I almost forgot those . . . they are the perfect compliment to a nice, hot bath. If I bathe during the day, I sometimes hang a dark towel over the window and put the candles on, but nighttime baths are so much more fun!

I nearly always shower simply because it's so much quicker. I like to have a nice long bath as a treat sometimes if I'm stressed or have aches and pains. No need to be in your bath alone - it's always more fun to share ;-) (that goes for showers too)

You are not alone, I LOVE a good bath at the end of the day. But I admit, I have become a bit of a "bath snob" because now I can't take a bath without something added to it!LOL! I have become addicted to bath bombs, oils, melts, and bubble bars! I take my shower in the morning, even though it's not as luxurious as a bath it's the only way I feel good and clean starting my day. Then I take my decadent bath at night;)

I prefer showers. I love bubble baths too, but only in certain cases. For example, I usually only like to take baths when I've either been having a horrid day and just need some relaxing, to sit in there and read my book, or, it's really cold wintery weather and I've been outside for a long time, and I need some comfort warming up in the tub! I haven't gotten a bath in months. I don't have time for them, even if I do like them. And now that the weather is warm, I don't want baths anymore. A warm bath during burning up weather would be too much to bear and more of torture than comfort. I like baths, but I'm forced to take showers more often.
