Goodness, I am sure getting lax in my posting. Anyway, I have used the Slim this week because I have needed quick shaves. Too much going on. I also decided to go with the Duc de Santal this week. The scent is a bit light, but it’s a great scent. Three passes left me BBS for the win! Great shaves so far this week. This is my work Friday, so we will wrap it up with the same shave tomorrow. Life is good!

That's how I feel about Duc de Santal too - the scent is light but great.

Have a good weekend Tim. I hope thing slow down some for you.

Thanks Mike, I hope you have a great weekend as well. I am looking to add another person to my team at work. That should help greatly reduce my workload.

TGITHMF! That’s right Chris, I am off work tomorrow and my weekend has officially started. The last two shaves were really good and I walked away BBS for the win! I did change a few bits up today. And tomorrow may be just a random shave. Life is good!

Home Front-
My mother is back in the hospital. Prayers, happy thoughts, positive vibes … whatever you have, please toss it her way. The missus has gone to babysit the grandkids, so Ellie and I are fending for ourselves until Sunday. Oh … and the lines are just for you Sam. I paid special attention to those today.
