The Deets-
I stayed with the Stirling today because it seemed like a good day for Florida Water. It was also an early afternoon shave, but more on that in a minute. I don’t know, there is something about this lightly scented soap that I really like. Performance aside, it’s something about the scent … nice. It is a sample and I need to use it more to fee up this mug. Not sure if I want to use it for future Stirling samples or throw a vintage Williams puck in there, we shall see.

Went with another three pass shave, with no drama to report and I am BBS for the win! Oh yeah! The edge is not where I want it yet, but it will deliver. A healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! Yes, yes it was. I really dig the Florida Water scent, I just wish it lasted a bit longer.

Home Front-
I mentioned a early afternoon shave and that was because of my work schedule yesterday. We had system upgrades to work on that took way too long. My day started at 5:30am yesterday and ended at 7:00am this morning. Grabbed a bit of sleep and then up for a shave. Today will be housework, just helping out the missus and tomorrow I will be mowing. Sprinkled across both days I have work work to prepare for another system upgrade that will start on Wednesday and may run into Friday. Sheesh. The missus is basically the same, but I see some slight improvements here and there. But with that said, the symptoms are the same. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Turbo hasn’t destroyed anything yet, but the day is not over. Actually, with the missus sick, all the dogs are in a funk and it’s noticeable. Anyway, I think that’s enough for today. Life is good!

O Lordy! When it rains it pours. Hang in there Tim. All the best to the missus too.

The Deets-
Nice early afternoon shave again. Mowed the yard and then it was shower and shave time. Again used the Stirling Unscented, to put a dent in it. Three pass BBS for the win! Oh yeah! Wrapped everything up with a healthy splash of aftershave and everything was right as rain! Good stuff. Life is good!

Home Front-
As I said, just doing things around the house today. Working on housework and will wrap that up after dinner. And for some great news! The missus is up moving around more and has lost most of her symptoms. She only has two symptoms left and they are not debilitating, so that is very good. Me and the dogs have not picked up any funk, so there is that good news as well. Snuck out for a few minutes yesterday and got Turbo a hard rubber bone, so hoping that will keep her occupied in the downtime. I think that’s all for today. Thank you everyone for the thoughts and prayers, it is greatly appreciated.

Fantastic news!

Glad to hear Tim! Been thinking of you guys
