Shave Time!

Soap: WSP Blackbeard

Quick shave before I head over to the In-laws for Easter dinner. Had a few weepers today but they closed up easily on their own before the shave was over. Walked away....BBS! No complaints here!

Monster Jam last night turned out to be a lot of fun! I’ve never been to anything like it before, and I’m glad I went. I’ll get some pics up in a little bit.

Willie World:
Willie’s been feeling good but he still has to stay home today by himself. We used to take him anytime we went to my parents’ or my in-laws’, but now that we really have to watch him with jumping on and off furniture he has to stay h
ome. He’ll get some special treats when we get home though.
 
That's a nice looking Brush! And I am sure Willie will understand...well...when he gets his treats that is! 🤪

AS: AA Bay Rum

Today was a good day to be a pirate! Pulled out the AA Bay Rum soap and splash, which I haven't used in a while, and got to work. Quick 2 pass shave today and after being BBS yesterday I walked away DFS+. Can't complain. I believe this is Bay Rum Week in the April soap themes so I'll probably continue with another Bay Rum tomorrow.

Not much going on today. Waiting on documents to come through to add to the file for my current sale. Playing the waiting game for now.

Willie World:
Willie is loving this weather! High 60's and low 70's make him a happy boy!

Soap: Stirling Bay Rum
AS: Stirling Bay Rum

Keeping with the Bay Rum soap of the week theme, I pulled out my Stirling Soap Bay Rum samples and had a quick 2 pass shave this morning. I'll have to have another shave with this before I make my final call, but I think I prefer this Bay Rum over the AA. I do like the AA, but it's a noticeably different kind of Bay Rum. I'm not sure what scent notes are standing out to me though lol. Either way it's nice to have 2 types to choose from right now. I'll likely add a full tub and splash of this one at some point. The Stirling samples are huge though, so I probably won't need to re up for quite a few shaves.

We have a home inspection scheduled for Friday for the current deal, so nothing really to do with that until after the inspection. I also have a few other pokers in the fire, but nothing's quite lit yet. Hopefully I'll have a few more deals going here soon.

Willie World:
Willie apparently has allergies and they're making his armpits itch....I know, it sounds weird lol. He's on allergy meds to calm it down but he was all red yesterday from licking and scratching. Poor guy can't catch a break! The pollen levels have been really bad around here though. Hopefully they'll subside soon and he'll get some real relief.
 
Our pollen is also out of control. Started on the flonase mighty early this year.
