Mixed it up the last two days and this is where I landed today. It’s been awhile since I have used a Boker. The last one I had, I PIFed away and looking back I should have kept it. This one is fancier than my last and comes from the House of Somnos. The rest of the kit sounded good today also and it was. Went with my standard three passes and walked away DFS for the win! The razor needs a bit of work, but I will have it sorted out. Life is good!

Home Front-
Thank you all for the prayers for my mother. She is out of the hospital and in a rehab. She should be going home this coming week. In other news, Ellie and I have weathered the storm and the missus should be home tomorrow.

That's wonderful news Tim. Best of luck to mom.

Thank you Mike!

Exactly what Mike said! And glad you and Ellie are getting better weather. Just make sure all the incriminating junk food wrappers are disposed of properly!

Thanks! And great call on the wrappers. I have some cleaning up to do.

I still don’t have my wood bowl sanded and waterproofed yet. Hopefully I can work on that this week. So … instead of the Windsor soap, The Fat got the nod today. Great shave and I walked away BBS for the win! A healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain. Life is good!

Yesterday I did another sample shave with TDS Patchouli and Vetiver. Another great shave but no pic for you. Chris said the camera added 10 pounds to my scuttle, so there ya go.

Today seemed like a good day for Pineapple, so Ethos got the nod. Three smooth passes and I walked away BBS for the win! A healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! Great start to the day. Life is good!
