Nebia Review, A Shower Worth the Wait
![](https://goodmorningseattle.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Nebia-Review.png)
Waiting for Nebia On August 14th, 2015, this happened: Roughly one year and eight months (…or 87 weeks…or 609 days…or 14,616 hours) later, it finally arrived!

Today is the first day of my next three-month challenge: Shopping Abstinence! From November 1st through January 31st I will not buy STUFF for myself. Okay, so what does that actually mean?
