Shave #275 (350 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS, Feather Pro blade, Schick M Adjustable, Supply blade, Yaqi SF synth brush, CBL Blueberry Muffin soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, and Bootlegger’s Bay Rum AS to finish!

Up early to get the kids off to school. Then a nice morning coffee date with the missus.

Shave today was great! Just a couple follicle decapitations from a fresh injector blade. CBL Blueberry Muffin is like the old school synthetic Dimetap taste of soaps...love it!

Fairly easy work day. Just Wednesday night programs to tend to.

Have to finish up packing later. Decided I’m only taking the Trac II, so if things do get lost or left, it won’t be missing any of my favorite items. Probably just going to avoid all hassles and see if it can fit in my checked bag. So Trac II on Ichabod handle, Yaqi SF, small bottle of aloe/witch hazel blend (about 1 oz), my clown Puke Tub (probably less than 2 oz of hard soap in there), and some AS samplers. In combo with my normal toiletries, hopefully all will be good. If any of this raises a red flag, you think, do tell.

Have a great Wednesday all!

Good choice leaving the Veg at home.

It has a permanent place in the darkest recesses of my AS drawer for the time being. I take it out once in a while to sniff, but it seems that after 6+ months in glass, it’s as improved as it’s going to get...which isn’t saying much...
 
Getting caught up on your journal for the last week or so. Loving the new digs! See...getting all gussied up isn't all that bad!
 
Shave #276 (351 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS, Feather Pro blade, Schick M Adjustable, Supply blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, JOHS Turkish Bath soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, and Skin Bracer AS to finish!

Last shave in the home den for the weekend, went for a classic, simple scented setup. Stuck with the Feather and Schick since I’ll be subjecting myself to the Trac II for 4 days. I almost got rid of the Trac a while back because I thought I’d never use it. Thankful now that I kept it around, even if it is a darn cart.

Middle son stayed home from school today, rough night last night, but seems to be over it now. We’re mostly packed except for our regular use toiletries and whatnot. Have to pack the kids up for their own weekend trip to the grandparents’ and tidy up some things around the house for the dog sitter staying over.

Off to it!

Have a great Thursday all!
