Balancing on the Razor's Edge of (In)Sanity

Mine does too, except for her allergies. She's done the front yard twice, and wheezed for hours. I thanked her for doing it, but won't let her do it again. She pays too steep of a price.
God bless her for trying 👍

my wife has allergies to her parents old farm house so I get that. Whenever we go I frequently remind her, “ come on Honey, let’s get going.... your allergies...”

“but we’ve only been here 15 min” 🤣
 
Mines a ’97 the first of the C5 body style. I should drive it more. Only put 1200 miles on it so far.
Sounds like a beaut! The Corvette has always been a favorite of mine. 👍

I don’t live far from the GM proving grounds. When they were testing the newest Vette, I would constantly see it with and without Camo... I was often on the same road with them in many of the shots that leaked onto the car websites and mags 😎

Very nice, smooth shave. The M1 is my most mild razor - but it is efficient and the audible feedback is awesome. The Classic 2 brush is too small, frankly, but the fact that it’s a fantastic lather is why it stays around. I know guys say the same about the Wee Scot ... the Classic 2 is basically a more usable Wee Scot and certainly is not a novelty. I prefer to use it with the little WSP tins.... no way the Chubby 3 would even think about fitting in there (yea, yea, that’s what she said🙄). Almost finished with both the soap and AS.... WSP is releasing black orchid next week and I plan to grab formula T for myself and the shaving cream for my wife.

New church service went well. Great message on humility, which I know WE all as people need to be reminded of, especially yours truly. I think this may be our new church home, we will continue to go and get involved and take it from there. Have a blessed Sunday Cadre 👍
 
Thanks. It’s been nice socializing a bit... this is basically my only social circle outside of work and home so nice to talk shaving and life with guys for a change... biggest challenge is keeping up with others, I don’t do that well at all 🤷‍♂️

WSP will always have a spot in my shave den 👍
You should join us on a zoom call!

Great shave after skipping a night. Shaved 2 out of 3 nights camping with travel setup which was surprisingly smooth and drama free. First time with this type of treet blade and was good.

I’ll post some gratuitous camping pics and finished siding / window project pics as well coming up after dinner....
 
Great job on the siding!

Looks like you folks had a lot of fun. That fire pit is epic. [emoji106]
 
Well.... thanks to @Dave in KY And a email convo with Henson.... ordered a Henson medium in military green (nope, never have been a service man BUT I appreciate their service...and I love Camo/military Green [nope, not a hunter either... 2 strikes against me 🤷‍♂️])


will review it when it arrives.


How many of you go in “waves?” Like, get some shaving stuff all at once, then tag out for a month or so, then back in? That’s me. This is what I’m thinking is the start of my next “I’m in”!

”kicks” is what I call it. I always go in on things in “kicks”. Have so all my life.... hardcore for a month or so Then onto the next thing. But I always return to a previous “kick” if it’s good.... shaving products, heavy metal, video games, etc. 🤦🏼‍♂️
