It’s still a long road to recovery for her, but we’re both happy she is able to have a little more freedom now.
 
Glad to hear the missus is improving Chris!

I ocassionally have the same mishap with the sideburns, and without the help of a slant ???. Keeping them a little linger does help when you have to fix them!
 
Shave #37 (Open Blade Shave #245) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS, Feather Pro blade (6), RR German 37 Slant, Astra SP blade (6), RR Big Bruce synth, Cella soap, generic witch hazel, and Bootlegger’s Bay Rum AS to finish!

Saw Mike’s post today in which he used his Bay Rum accoutrements, thought “mmm that sounds good”, and followed suit!

Another solid shave with the Feather/G37 razor combo today. I felt the blade heavily a couple times, but no blood. The G37 has a scalloped closed bar (think along the lines of the Muhle R41), so once in a while the blade makes itself known if you aren’t watching your angle, or if something happens to get into one of the scallops, like the edge of a lip.

No sleeping in today. Wednesdays are my normal days to get the kids to school, so I did that, then came back for my morning clean up. About to head out now to a date morning before the missus heads to work.

Have a great Wednesday all!
 
Shave #38 (Open Blade Shave #246) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS, Feather Pro blade (7), RR German 37 Slant, Astra SP blade (7), RR Big Bruce synth, Cella soap, generic witch hazel, Man Dom AS, and Pinaud Citrus Musk splash on to finish!

Not much to see here really. Blades are still going stronk and still getting excellent shaves from the slant. The slant was just an easy dial-in. I think it’s greatest weakness though is it’s slant and the fact that I’m still having a hard time squaring up things (no mistakes today, I just got close on the sideburns though instead of a full cleanup).

Watched everyone’s Opposite Challenge videos so far, awkwardness seems to be the key word, but easily doable otherwise. I won’t get to mine until Monday most likely.

Middle son has a Cultural Heritage project going on in class. Today it includes foods, so I made the easy and correct choice to fry up some Meat of the Gods...spam of course. Off soon to deliver that!

Have a great Thursday all!
 
I wasn’t sure what or if I was going to eat for dinner till you said that. I immediately ran to the cupboard and sliced some up. Yum!

Fry them suckers up with some rice n eggs, turn up the thermostat, it’ll be like you never left Hawaii!

No rice. But I do love it fried with eggs. Half can for dinner and the other half for breakfast..... How did you know what I was going to eat?
