Happy Hump Day Everyone. I must be coming to terms with this brush. The lather this morning was fantastic. By far my best effort with this beast of a brush. Otherwise the shave was rather uneventful which is really not a bad thing given how stressed I am with work. I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday.

Great gear, Clint. The more I use my Donkey soap, the more I appreciate it.

A very early morning shave with a mid afternoon post. Whew what a day. The final big tax deadline for the year is done for me. I have just e-filed my the last of my client's returns. This year taxes have just not seemed to end. Now I can relax a little bit before the end of the year crush. At least the shave this morning went well. I just stuck with products I know work well for me. As expected, I got a drama free near prefect shave. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

Happy Friday! Happy Friday! Can you tell I like Fridays? Up and moving very early. The new pup, Greyson and I did a mile walk this morning. At least he is a good walking partner. With a busy day ahead it was nice to get in a great shave before starting. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. I can't expect much more than that while I am half asleep. I hope everyone has a Fantastic Friday.

Up and moving entirely too early for a Saturday morning. I am going down to check on my mother and take her to lunch. I am trying to get back home in time to watch the Georgia Kentucky game this afternoon. The ABC hard soap is a new addition to the den so I decided to give it a try right away. The soap has a very light scent that last throughout the shave but will not clash with your choice of splash or cologne. I found the soap very easy to load and lather. I think I will enjoy it more after I get it fully dialed in. I hope everyone has a great day.

Lovely shave, Clint! Really like that brush!
