The Deets-
Late morning shave today and it was very nice! I am using a new sample sent by Paul @mrdoug, called Future Fiction from PAA. To my nose, it was lightly scented off the puck, so I was curious how it would open up once lathered. It opens up nicely and is still lightly scented. It has a familiar scent, but I can’t place it. Three easy passes and I am BBS for the win! No AS today, just a splash of Witch Hazel. Life is good!

Home Front-
So the shots that Turbo got seem to be helping. There haven’t been any accidents today. We have pills to give her for 14 days and she takes them well, hidden in hot dog bites. I think that’s it for today.

Ugh, dog pill feeding is ridiculous with our dogs! They’re pill finding champions!

Glad she’s doing better👍
 
Just read about the puppy. A puppies stomachs are a lot more sensitive than a lot of people realize. So glad it wasn't Parvo! Whatever the problem...glad it seems to be getting better. We love our puppies!

Pre Shave-
Strop: Tony Miller Plain Vanilla
Scuttle: PAA Brush Warmer
Splash and go

Shave-
Razor: Gold Dollar
Blade: none
Brush: knothead Boar
Soap: Mystery soap (sample)

Post Shave-
Post shave lather
AS: Pinaud Lime Sec

The Deets-
Went back to the mystery soap sample, just because. This time I loaded heavy with a 60 second load time. Had a nice shave and scored a BBS for the win! Hit the Pinaud Lime Sec and it looks like it’s not a keeper. I found the scent was maybe is alright and the missus didn’t like it at all. There are still a ton of soaps/AS that are awesome, so it won’t be missed. Life is good!

Home Front-
Turbo is doing much better, so we’ll keep giving her the meds until they run out. Yesterday I had a cyst cut out of my back, that took 10 stitches. And if that wasn’t fun enough, we then went and got the Maderna booster. I was feeling pretty beat up this morning with full body aches. Feeling better this evening, but my arm is still hurting from that shot. That’s all I have today.
 
Did you have a tea candle holder in your back to match the other one you had?
Sheesh, you think you would learn not to grow these things. :cautious:


But you are well enough to post, so..... Life is Good!
