I'm here, mostly just lurking! I'll try to post an update soon...
 
No need to apologize Chad! Your feelings were warranted and now you know that they appreciate you! Still though...if you do not feel fulfilled in your job...a promotion and a pay raise only fixes things temporarily. Either way...congratulations!
 
CONGRATS!!!
Hello SNOW!

The snow hasn't left LOL. And seeing that the southern states are getting hit, like AZ, NM, So Cal, and Southern Utah. No place is safe! Winter is coming!

That is so AWESOME Chad. I could read between the lines and tell it was getting emotional. Means everything to at least be recognized.......pay raise is a nice recognition too

Thanks Dave. It came at a good time.

That is amazing news Chad. Sounds like a great company. Seems like you don't hear about things like that very often anymore.

Very true. Thank you.

OUTSTANDING stuff Chad on the promotion! Definitely deserved.

Thanks Josh.

Great googly moogly!!! That's awesome! You be havin' biscuits AND gravy tonight!

MMMM Biscuits and Gravy!

Chad can be bought!

I mean, excellent! All that diligence has paid off. Well done Chad!

For now LOL

Excellent news, Chad. Recognition for hard work feels good.

It sure does. Thank you.

Congrats Chad! All your hard work paid off! Really happy for you bud!

Thank you my 3 named friend.

Thats the first thing I thought too. Then I thought “hey, he can afford a few new items for the ol shave den”

Well if my favorite soap maker would release Stetson scent in his fancy new formula I might spend some more money ;-)

Thank you Don and I agree. All this does is doesn't make a move imminent. I feel like now I can be more picky and not rush to look for something.

Well woke up this morning, saw snow. Nothing new there. Had a nice shave with the CBL Harvest Oud I LOVE this scent, and the soap has firmed up a lot more, which is actually helping it lather better honestly. Felt good to have a nice shave with all these skin conditioning properties. The winds and the extreme cold has been making my skin dry so this was welcomed.

Like I mentioned snow LOL. BUT it looks like a warm up will be coming next week, fingers are crossed. With basketball season over this is my first friday in a LONG time where I will not be at a school. So I am going to head over to the church and call bingo tonight for a bit then head home and relax with the family. I have relaxed this week at home, and starting next week I will be hitting the gym at least 3 days a week for weight training. Hope you all have a great day!

Well today I wanted a Stetson shave and that is just what I did. Awesome shave was had. The blade did okay but you can read else where about that. Some morning you just need shave nirvana and this scent provides that for me.

Well earthquakes have been hitting around here lately, lots of them around 2.5 to 3.5 but they are close to the surface and easily detected. It has the whole state up in arms because we have been told that the big one will hit for 100 years now. Today we are going to our Diocese Marriage retreat so that should be a nice day hopefully. The kids are with my parents today. Heading out soon but wanted to get the shave in here. Have a good day cadre.
 
Yup...I think everywhere you go there is some 100 year, 500 year, 1000 year catastrophe that never hits...until it does that is. I hear they have been saying that California is supposed to break off and fall into the ocean...still waiting!

Hope the retreat goes well and that your # of soaps doesn’t come up!

Thanks Chris. It actually went real well.

This could really put a damper on things haha!

Hope you and the wife have a good time Chad!

Surprisingly it did not come up. We had a good time.

Super deal on the bump Chad!

Thanks Rich

Well let me put it this way. After the 3 that hit yesterday this fault line has had 102 measurable earthquakes in the last two weeks. So it has quite a few people on edge. Especially when you feel one. I have felt a few of them.
