Did you guys know the Carpathia was a ship that recused survivors from the Titanic. I assume this soap wasn’t named after that, as it’s supposed to be a tribute to Dracula. I like the way SW does their scents. I could pull out the wood note, but everything else blended together very well. Not really much planned this weekend. May tackle fixing the shower door. And the usual manly stuff on the deck.

I think this is my first go with Mammoth Soaps. It stood out to me for being creamy and slick. I can see why people will pay a premium for it.

Samhain is a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter or "darker-half" of the year. In the northern hemisphere, it is held on 1 November, but with celebrations beginning on the evening of 31 October, as the Celtic day began and ended at sunset. And now you know. The scent of the soap is in the same area as Roasted Oatmeal Stout. Gourmand, but not too sweet. Good stuff!
In the bad stuff news, my personal COVID update. The state is using the CDC transmission level for the county to determine things like if hospitals can have visitors and how many. Last week we were in the orange category which meant we were going to have to throttle back to 1 visitor per patient. Today I look and we're in red, the highest teir. That means we'll be working towards shutting down to no visitors again. I have one kid mad at me because I've said no more sleep overs for now. Kills me when people say "back during COVID". COVID is still here and with a vengeance!!

I was going to do an open blade shave today but woke up almost 45min later than planned so just grabbed the best razor in the world. What the @#(*)@()$ is up with RazoRock soap? Performance-wise this stuff sucks. My level setting is Stirling. Be as good as Stirling or better to get used. This is not at that level. I have to keep it because of the name and logo though. This lather started to disappear as soon as I applied it and wasn't slick at all.
Been enjoying less stress recently. Getting school done early was big. Even when I wasn't doing work, knowing it was sitting out there waiting was always a thing. No major issues at home recently. Though my daughter was talking about hoping she doesn't have a seizure at school. So for someone that doesn't talk about anything and acts like there isn't anything to be done about anything in the world, that's pretty big. School starts for the kids on Thursday.
