If you have to do something...

Nice read Chris and I am sorry that this next phase is starting to affect your social circles. Praying that it gets better soon!
Thanks Pat! I’m sure it’ll get a little worse before it gets better, particularly where our senior and young child policies are concerned, but the sooner the talks happened, the sooner the healing can begin.
I hope everything gets sorted out reasonably well, Chris. You can't make everybody happy.
Thanks Ben! Yep...darn independent individuals with their darn rainbow spectrum of ideals. :ROFLMAO:
 
Shave #150 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Blackland Vector, Feather Pro blade, Sorrentino TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, Stirling Hipster soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Stirling Hipster AS, and Elysium Pour Homme Roja Dove to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 75:

Up a bit early to get the kids kicked off on class work.

Shave went really well and the Roja Dove paired better with Hipster than I thought. It kind of added a musky rose to Hipster’s cologne/citrus. Still working on the new “bottomless” witch hazel/aloe mix; today I’m going to add some more aloe and scenting.

A couple Zoom meetings today, but not much else otherwise. Just enjoying my morning cup of coffee.

MUCH cooler day forecasted today...mere 80s. 70s predicted tomorrow, which is great because I need to at least mow the lawn.

Have a great Friday all, ya made it!
 
Shave #151 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Blackland Vector, Feather Pro blade, Sorrentino TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, Clown Puke soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Myrsol K AS, and Paul Sebastian to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 76:

Up a bit early this morning. Had an iced coffee and almond paste croissant then it was out the door to knock out a couple hours of yard work.

Very nice shave after freshening up a bit. 3 effortless passes with the Vector on a nice, thick, slip n slide lather whipped up from the clown puke tub. The 1st Anniversary badger has been performing pretty darn good the last couple shaves, with no shedding and very decent lathers (provided I’ve loaded well enough).

Now it’s just lawn watering left and some laundry.

The weather is near perfect, with the temps in the 70s and cool, overcast skies.

Two pick me ups for the week happened this morning with the SpaceX launch and another thing that will be headed my way next week. Great start to the weekend!

Happy Saturday all!
 
Shave #152 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Schick M Adjustable, Schick Twin blade, Sorrentino TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, LNHC Barber Shoppe soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, LNHC Barber Shoppe post shave elixir, and Penhaligon’s Sartorial clone oil to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 77:

We’ve arrived at another Sunday under SIP all too swiftly.

Nice shower n shave this morning in what is quickly becoming one of my favorite software combos. Everything was optimal and the shave effortless.

Last of the graduate gift baskets are wrapped up and on their way to be distributed. Sitting now with a cup o joe to participate in the morning’s online service.

A little more laundry and yard watering to finish, but that’s about it!

Have a blessed Sunday all!
