B is for Bosco. Hey, I've kept with the theme for 2 days! So far so good. I had to do a couple clean up swipes with the 6S on the neck, but boy howdy are my cheeks smooth!
The number of COVID patients we have is slowly growing. Our organization is predicting our surge to hit in about 3 weeks so it's sort of like watching the hurricane building and heading to your beach but not sure how big it will be or if it might change speed. If you follow some of the other threads you see I finally decided on a new work bag. Went a little over my set budget, but it'll get used daily and should make a difference having something that will be functionally better. It got shipped by slow boat from the right coast, so might have an unboxing next week.

Quickly! Grab the hot ash and mush it in an unscented soap! Free smoky scent!

Video heavy morning. Got to watch half of @Dave in KY's video. Then shot my own. Then @Spider went live while I was gathering my breakfast at work, so watched him and thought about throwing it up on the command center big screen since I'm the only one in here. But I'd have to log into Facebook on a computer that's not mine, so thought better of that plan.

Very similar shave as yesterday. Cheeks were super close BBS and I needed to use a DE to chase BSS on the neck. No alum sting at all today though. So I still wouldn't totally rule out a DE shavette, but I need to find one that gives me a reason to have it over the Feather SS. I might have to say the 2nd anniversary brush looks better than it performs. I'll have to see after a couple more uses, but it was a little stiff and didn't want to splay. I'm not used to synthetics needing to be broken in, but it almost feels that way.
In a stretch of 5 days as Incident Commander. Yesterday was pretty smooth with only one minor issue to deal with and expect similar today. It's odd how even during an emergency, things can mellow out on the weekend.
