The Process-
And the crap-nami that was 2020 keeps the hits coming. Friday night, got a call that my wife's eldest son was on the way to the hospital. At age 41 he was having a massive heart attack. When my wife called her daughter to tell her, we were told that she received a call before ours and she tested positive for COVID. Good grief! As of yesterday, Deb's son was released from the hospital after treatment. (He survived and was able to be treated - thank you all for the prayers!) They are shoving people out the door at the hospitals because of the COVID cases. Today I got a text from my younger brother and he was on his way to the ER. He felt really bad last night and was having breathing issues today. 2021 is off to a rocky start.

Oh ... the shave. I haven't used the Three Ranners much, but it was my first SR purchase. A Swedish steel razor that was a sight unseen from WhippedDog. A nice hefty razor with hard steel. I kept my normal shave routine today and had an awesome shave. Oh ... almost forgot to mention that I used my new brush warming scuttle this morning and it works great. A nice toasty lather and everything was right with the world for a few brief moments. That’s all I got for you and yes ... Life is good!
