With the heat wave thats hittibg my country I was watering my back yard today, and began wondering if there Is such a thing as wasting water when doing so… I mean, it re-enters the water cycle, doesn’t It? Besides if its absorbed by the plants AND grass … Is It really wasted?

It depends. Are you somewhere that naturally gets more water than it needs? Then what you’re doing is totally fine. The only waste is whatever effort went in at the treatment plant. But the water itself will replenish.
Are you somewhere with an insufficient water supply like Los Angeles? Yeah, it’s very wasteful to water your lawn.
