"I NEED NurseDave's Energy"
That's too bad that you got a cold. Also, if I would've seen a snail or critter using my straights I would have gone to war with every single one within a mile radius.
Keep up the good work and get better, Fluffy.
It's usually the last meal that gives it that special taste
Today was a better day.
Will add more to this in a bit getting ready to get her upstairs to bed.
Posted a vid for those with the inclination to hear my musings.

Update.
Tonights shave was almost great. Unfortunately I failed to respect my impossibly sharp Shogun edge. Blood was drawn. Fortunately no permanent disfigurement resulted.
@Dave in KY 's razor did a fabulous job of removing my whiskers. It and the other three he sent up with some samples. Will be made ready to ship back home.
I very much enjoyed the opportunity to hone em up for him. And hope he finds them acceptable.
On the home healthcare nurse front. My wife is on the mend. But it is going to be another 9 days until we go to her follow up. Get her soft cast off. And hopefully she will be able to put weight on it. Her morale was better tonight.
She is sleeping now. And my cold is on the wane.
One day at a time. One foot in front of the other. Fail to plan. Plan to fail. Complete the mission, soldier.
Didn't take a pic. Did a vid.
Gear.

Great approach. Slow and steady wins the race. Glad your wife is feeling better.

Nice stuff Ken
Razor is drawing blood. Oh ya, I’d say it’s ready for Dave to shave with it!

Don't threaten me with a good time
Hello Cadre.
Monday’s shave, I get back to basics.
Back to my first favorite soap Tabac.
Boar brush and a Made in USA razor.
Red Imp by Case.
With all the testing of Dave’s razors. Mine got a little jealous. The Red Imp got the nod.
Got this on the bay. Because it had broken scales. Guess people were scared.
Not me brother. These are every bit as good as any other extra hollow 5/8 blade out there.
American razors go get you some people.
Geneva/Genco, Burrel, Case, Robeson, Allegheny Instrument, Shumate.
Are the brands that have been against my face. None have failed to deliver.
Sales pitch over.
Hope you all have a good Tuesday.
Fluffy.

The way your post with all the returns is showing on my phone looks like it’s supposed to be a poem or something. I feel like you’re trying to convey a victory over the common, yet wanting to feel a sense of connection through common passions. Now if it only rhymed...
You are giving me way too much credit. A poet I am not (yoda voice) Maybe i'll limit my future post to Haiku format.
Short and sweet. Then that would only follow that from then on I use only my Japanese razors. There was a victory tonight. Over my whiskers
Whiskers grown today
Steel forged hardened long ago
Today put to use

Excellent, Mr Fluffy!
Revisiting the haiku.
I would replace the second today with "smartly".
Same word twice is poor form. We are all our own worst critics.

Ok Cadre. Good day today. Got some things done. The wife's spirits are brighter than any of the previous days.
At long last boxed up @Dave in KY 's razors and got them headed back his way. Down south.
Any of you that have checked in on this thread. Will know that I try to make things fun and interactive. In that vein. I want you all to help Dave track his package.

In a bit I am going to head up and do my unboxing and shave video for tonight. Rather proud that I didn't peek at what Dave sent up. Exciting.
And remember Dave there are a few things headed your way. That are unknown to you. Hope you like surprises.
