Met a friend for coffee Wednesday morning, so I shaved Tuesday evening. And again today. The blade is holding up well. Beautiful early fall weather here; the air smells so fresh. :)

A satisfying Monday shave, leaving me clean and refreshed, not to mention smooth skinned. I missed KJ's shave on the Zoom last night. Hopefully, it was recorded for posterity. Have a great Monday, Cadre. :)

New soap today. It lathers quickly and performs well. Didn't have the soap : water ratio quite where it needed to be, but I'll do better tomorrow. The Nivea passed another impromptu Sheri test.

Back to the DSC post shave cream. I'll likely use it till gone, then pick another AS to use up. Fresh blade today - Kai's seem to start to fade at about 9-10 shaves for me. Result today is exceptionally close and smooth. Have a great afternoon and evening, Cadre!

Smooth clean noontime shave today. Had to shave in time for the Steelers game, at the Bengals. If the Steelers play up to The Standard, we have a chance, otherwise the Bengals could dominate.

A cleanshaven day, unlike yesterday, when I was passable but not presentable. The Windows 10 laptop I've been using has gone nuts and now TSC opens at about 2-3 pt fonts - I kid you not. I've got to scroll the window open wide to read it. It's the laptop; it does so many screwy things that I consider this to be just one more. So I'm on a Mac desktop to post today. Hope we're all having a good day.
 
Perhaps the viewing setting were inadvertently changed? I know I accidentally do it sometimes on the iPhone, hitting something that reduces the font size until it fiddle with the setting and put it back at normal.
