Tom's Journal about Shaving and other good stuff

Well I hope you find them soon. In the meantime you need to buy all new shaving gear!

I find it extremely gratifying to see an estrogen free medicine cabinet! Nicely done Tom!
 
Nice Stuff Tom, and good reads, as I catch up. glad you were able to unpack your travel kit..... The rest will show up, LOL
 
Getting caught up Tom. Glad you are getting settled in and I hope the missing gear turns up.
 
All caught up, Tom! Glad the move went smoothly, and looking forward to seeing what you do with the bathroom.
 
Alright - haven't updated in awhile. A few key notes:

1) The missing items still have not come up yet. *UGH* We'll see how long this one Kai blade in my General lasts before I give in to getting a new pack.
2) Haven't shaved for a few days so had some growth over the weekend. I looked at my chin and I am officially getting old. One single white facial hair. Note - I have been slowly getting salt and pepper on top and that is gonna be inevitable due to my dad's genes.
3) Fine Soap is divine and always delivers. Today was a BBS-. Why the minus? Didn't get as close on the upper lip as I know I could.
4) Kissed the wife good bye today and she says "I don't like that smell." I believe she is referring to the Clubman AS. HAHAHA Another scent bites the dust.
5) I owe a few of you some packages so I will try to get them out later this week. Apologies for the delays. ?
6) My new brush is gonna be awesome. 'Nuff said.
 
Nice to see you posting To, the stuff will indeed turn up when you least expect it
 
Nice recap Tom!

The missing shave stuff will be in the last place you look.

Does this mean you're going to start evaluating hair tinting products?
 
Sorry for the missing items in the move Tom. I know when you are packing an entire apartment/house, it is easy to fill a box with all of your stuff only to find that it would not all fit in the box as you had hoped and marked with "Shaving Stuff." Shaving items are small, and you probably just put them in another box or boxes where they would fit marked "Odds and Ends" or marked "Not Important", or marked "SWMBO's Salvation Army." Hope they turn up soon!
 
Funny you mention that Walt! I had a box full of just soaps, AS, shaving related items. Unfortunately, I had a Dopp bag that had the blades and razors and it hasn't shown up yet. Its hiding.

No shave updates though....

Personal Note:
I have been actively looking to make a move in my career and I have been long over due for a change in scenario. Unfortunately, I hit a snag with a start up where they went with another candidate which really bums me out. So now I have a bunch of other applications in and it is a wait and see game.
 
Dang the other guy!

I bet he uses an electric...

Good luck with the next batch of applications. I hope something turns up quickly!
 
Tom will be praying for you and with your acumen you will be at a top notch company in no time, or as I preach start your own biz in something you love and you only answer to yourself and your customers. Can you say something in Haberdashery maybe?.......
 
Good luck on the discernment process Tom. I know it is a bummer to see an opportunity that you were excited about slip away. But sometimes when I look back at my career, those missed opportunities turned out to be blessings with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight. Good luck, and I'm thinking about you.
