Ugh, yes. Thank god I don't live somewhere with water restrictions. We don't take water from the grid; water tanks and pumps are enough to cover the whole house. We had solar panels installed before the Summer, too; so far, they've made our house completely free to operate for most of Summer.
Got one of those plastic pools, 3 meters in diameter on the back patio. It is absolutely beautiful to just lay in it. Only spent half an hour in it yesterday, though, and the skin on my shoulders started peeling. :<
