I keep forgetting to post these darn things. Another professional level shave this morning. Sure do enjoy using these folding razors.

Back is miles better. I can even turn to my other side in bed without it being a 6 step slow process. And I got in the car this morning without wincing. Now it’s more soreness in the hip with walking and standing, but that’s manageable. Even contemplating spending the whole day at work tomorrow. Just get enough twinges with faster (old man fast) movements to remind me to take it easy still.

What do you think of the soap? I had that flavor in a splash, and while it was pleasant, it reminded me that I don't like sweet flavored shave soap or AS.

I think that’s right. It’s actually not bad as a soap. A bit artificial smelling, but a little warm from the amber.

Oh Sam, Sam, Sam. Have you not realized that past postings of shaves rarely included the deets?

I claimed victory over the back stuff a bit early. It seems to have moved from my back to my hip and gotten a little worse each day. Not sure how that happens. My plan is to contact the MD on Monday if this weekend resting doesn't turn things around. I was going to email this morning because it was pretty sore, but the pills or moving around has seemed to help. That's the toughest part is knowing when to call vs letting the process play out.

Homecomming weekend this weekend. That means going to at least part of the JV game to watch the youngest cheer. Then two of them going to the outside school dance. This year is Star Wars themed with games and a movie. I was surprised to hear kids of this generation picked that theme. Also apparently dances are now much more about just going with a friend group and not being as formal. I'm cool with that.

I know that you're generally "Deetless Dave" but you did include back info when required. I was happy to see a few days of *nada*. BTW Star Wars is kewl and has been since it came out. The Mandolinulagorianite series just reinforced it with the latest generation. Next generation, will see a different spinoff. As long as they stay away from a JarJar series, the $$$-franchise will continue.

Do you mean the short little furry brown guys might make a comeback?!
