Shaving adventures of a Milkcrate

Thanks Eric.

But of course, pups have a whole new world in front of them. They don’t know the do’s and don’ts yet. But we will get there. I think the next rescue dog we get may not be a puppy.

same with cats. I've not been around a kitten in decades. Our guys have all be 2-4 years old when we adopted/rescued them. Sylvester is 10 mos. Man, fun but tiring! and into everything, it's all new and all his, ha ha!

Very nice shower and shave this afternoon, after mowing the yard. And today I have Stirling on deck and as you know, I am a Stirling fan. Three easy passes and I am BBS for the win! Oh yeah. Wrapped everything up with the matching aftershave and everything was right as rain!

Home Front-
Well another day in the life of a puppy parent. The missus is back home and all is right with the world. I did have to give a damage report to the missus and she was not surprised. Hard to believe but the damage today was not scattered nearly as far and wide. So … I had taken a break from mowing and was trying to cool off and hydrate in the garage. I heard a loud thump from inside the house. Checked it out and one of the grandkids stuffed animals was on the dog pillow, the water bowl was in the middle of the room. But the real attention getter was a rolled up carpet we had leaning against the wall. Somehow this pup had brought the carpet roll down. At least it didn’t crush the dog. Life is good!

The Deets-
So today’s shave was Victory Shaving and this was one of the last production batches. I have not used a soap with this type of formula before but it lathers and shaves well. I dig the bomber themes too. A nice three pass shave was had and I am BBS for the win! Love it when a plan comes together.

Home Front-
So I had some samples come in today. There are three or four soap samples and about as many aftershaves. I can’t wait to start trying them, but that will be next week. I also received a Clauss straight that I scored. I was told that it has never been honed and I believe it. It looks like NOS and is dull. But I can fix that. I’m also excited to try this one since it’s a 6/8.

So I was mistaken yesterday when I thought all was well with the world. So I am working from home and the Bully is laying at my feet. Then it hit me .. I accused her of ripping some SBD’s down there. I stepped away from the stench to grab another cup of coffee and the stench was worse in the kitchen. I circled through to the room where the little dogs and there it was … CODE BROWN … CODE BROWN. Not sure what set her stomach off, but man did it ever. She has been doing good on the potty training up until THAT. Thankfully having hardwood floors really helped with the cleanup. I will be glad when the puppy phase is over. Life is good!
