The Deets-
So I rocked The Fat and Florida Water this past weekend. This week I’ll be using Stella Alpina. I am also on my short work week. I took off today to make it even shorter … not really. But today was not a fun day. Had some additional testing for my doc and after I left, they called back and wanted me to come back for some more images. That can’t be good. But I can tell you what was good … my shave. Had a great early morning shave and walked away BBS for the win! Very nice. Wrapped everything up with a healthy splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! There you have it. Life is good!

Hm … what deets can I give the hungry masses? Well TGITHMF! That’s right friends and neighbors, it’s my short work week and I’ll be winding it down today. Had a great late morning shave … one of the perks of working from home some days. Believe it or not, I was originally going to put this soap/AS set into my PST box. But I’m digging the muted scent now, so it stays on the shelf.

The shave was a very nice three pass shave. And I wrapped everything up with the splash of the matching aftershave and everything was right as rain. Now to knock this day out. Life is good!

Home front-
Don’t know if I mentioned it, but the wife and I looked at tiny houses last weekend. Some had nice build quality, but some were crappy mobile home quality. And the prices were insane. Wow … just wow.

The Deets-
Yesterday was The Fat and Florida Water. Today was Which One’s Pink. This was a very nice late morning shave. Went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. Wrapped everything up with a splash of the aftershave and everything was right as rain! You know it. A very nice start to the day. Life is good!

Home front-
So had a video call with my specialist yesterday and the images confirmed what was suspected. Thankfully no “C” to worry about and it can be managed with meds. So the meds started today. Yesterday we went and helped the youngest stepson and his wife move. It was a late night. The missus and I were sitting in a Waffle House shortly after midnight for dinner. With that, I had a late morning shave and chill day today.
