Got a call from my daughter and a text from my son (so typical) before the shave so the day was a good one no matter what...had a great lather with MWF (lukewarm water...soaked the brush and soap together...it worked great) and had two good passes with the C&S...a decent shave, but not as good as yesterday's, but that's OK...it's a good day already.
