Well well day two in a row! I am on a roll! Another great shave. Also started my research today on the bad blade series! It is coming back, for you know the 3 people that where interested in that. LOL!

Well life is busy at work but that's the norm. Really enjoying my book as well St. Francis De Sales' Philothea. It's a wonderful philosophy book and would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys reading philosophy. I have a basketball tonight and just got the email from the school that both teams had their rapid tests and all where negative. So we are go time! Should be a decent competitive game.

Have a good day cadre.

Today is the Epiphany a very important day in our faith. So headed to church to pray for a bit, talked to the priest, and then went over to the school that is in the same building to deliver the Knights of Columbus Keep Christ in Christmas poster winners. Was pretty neat to award my son the award for his age group. He is turning into quite the artist! I'll get some pictures later as the principal was in charge of that.

Have a good day Cadre

Well if you follow along you will see that I did go ahead and use a different brush today. The rest the same. Just a good shave. The way I like it.

Well nothing crazy. Hoping for tomorrows basketball game to come to fruition. Should know by tomorrow around Noon if both teams get the all clear from the health department.

Good Day Cadre
 
Dude, you have to change more than the brush. I used a nice AutoStrop razor today, loaded a new feather blade (the kind that fit the autostrops) and SHREDDED MY RIGHT CHEEK! If you don't set that blade in the right place the Auto STROP becomes and Auto CHOP. I look Like I went 3 rounds with a bobcat and came back for more. The bathroom looks like a crime scene. You want to try an Auto Strop!
 
Good to hear that you got to the Church for some you and the Big G time! I am so lacking that right now...and honestly...not that I have been super active in the church or what not...but I am hankering to maybe get involved with some classes or some service. Right now just isn't the right time for obvious reasons. The church here isn't doing a whole lot anyway. Ready for for things to get better.

And seriously Chad? No Auto-Strop?

Well the weekend came and went and well I missed a few things unfortunately. I totally forgot about the bad blade review video, just woke up Friday and went about my shave as normal. So sorry for that. We shall see what happens this week. I did change up a few things grabbed a different brush and started using a different razor. I am re-visiting the Merkur Slant and I must say I am very happy with the results the last few days using that razor. I am getting BBS shaves and loving every minute of it.

Well had the games friday I worked a double header. Then when driving home which was 40 miles I had the text from my wife. Call me! Apparently my daughter asked her brother to cut her hair. Yup CUT HER HAIR! And then my son cut his own too in a spot. Well after I took that all in, my phone rang from @BarberDave to talk Cadre. Pics below of the hair. I am still upset but it'll grow back.

Also over the weekend attended the Knights of Columbus mid year meeting virtually. That was a lot of fun and looking forward to ways to continue adapting in the crazy world of ours.

Yesterday we had game night which the kids where really looking forward to. We played Mouse Trap, Chutes and Ladders, Candy Land, and Uno Attack. A great evening indeed.

Have a great day cadre.
