Nice couple of shaves, Don! That wound should heal up in a few days so you can shave over it again without worrying.
BAZINGA!
BAZINGA!
Sure, this guy gives me a good common sense solution that totally makes me sound like I have just been lazy and not fixed my door.
I don't know if I can go a few days, but I can skip one.
They're just being polite....
Taborite, communist, LOL
Catching up Don, great reads and HUZZAH Sir Knight on your use of the veg!
LOL! I am sure your wife is though.
No shave today, I just used some of the salve after the shower to moisturize my face today. But, I did finally use some of the Penhaligon's Endymion Concentre today as a fragrance. It is marvelous. I heard Chad say that 2 sprays was enough for 3 days, so I only did one and it is still plenty strong enough for me to smell. I did not want to use too much because Tammy is very sensitive to fragrance.
A la Mancha, back to back ball games tonight after work. I have to take Arabella to her game before Elijah's ends. Should make for a fun night. I am also going to try to start working out at work on my lunch breaks again. I have been getting out of shape and I don't like how that feels. I brought my work out clothes today and going to start off easy. My problem most of the time is that my pride gets the better of me and I try to push myself too hard too fast.

Nice quick entry today. My office has an onsite gym too. Mine offers classes. Not sure if yours does, but that has been the easiest way for me to get workouts in. I actually really enjoy cycling class twice a week for cadio, and I attend a ten minute ab class every day. Granted I still have a beer belly, but I can definitely tell my core is getting stronger. The one that kicks my butt the most though is weight training every wednesday.
So what you're saying is it's quiet now so they can sneak up on you?

Straight Shave # 63
Keen Kutter K11
Graydog 2 band
DG Colonia Balsalmica
LT VC / CL Colonia Balsalmica
With 2 days growth, I needed something that would just work. This was it. The Graydog did try to grab too much DG, but I stopped myself before I overloaded. It was only about a 15 second load time on this one. The resulting lather was what one has come to expect from this producer. There is a reason why their soaps are my favorite. There was a time during the first pass that I questioned if the K11 would make it through the growth, but a slight angle adjustment and after 2 passes and I was DFS. I considered a water only clean up, but it has been so long since I have done a third pass with a straight, that I sat there questioning myself. I need to get this additional pass down pat. I will have to work on that soon. The Colonia Balsamica is a great scent, I just wish it was stronger.
A la Mancha, I have to get the car ready tonight for a 2 hour trip on Friday to go to Arabella's appointment. She has to go see a Pediatric Opthamologist because of a genetic condition that they believe she has even though they didn't find the marker while testing her genes. Her geneticist still believes that she has it. They just have to get a clinical diagnosis now. I do hope that it never comes to fruition though.
Have a great day everyone!

Nice read Don. The third pass with the Straight is always daunting for me. I still usually use my injector for the third pass.
Prayers for your family this Friday.
