I think you’re the first Single Edge Sunday this week. Hoping healing’s going well for Mrs. @never-stop-learning

Thank you, Thom.

The process of healing continues. Biggest issue is to convince my Bride to take it easy and concentrate on getting better.

Story of my Wife, erm, my life (same thing, really). Best of luck with getting that to happen without ducking projectiles.

Between the current project replacing a bunch of the plumbing at my home (which means the water has been turned off), driving my Bride to her appointments and then my calls and meetings, I had no time to shave on Thursday.

Hopefully today will be different - I am looking pretty scruffy.

Nothing a Ti Vector can’t handle David. Take care.

Amen to that, my friend.

Hoping your plumbing is now in tip-top form

Thank you, Gentlemen. I will do my level best to do so.

It's amazing how much my face feels like a copper grill scouring brush when I don't shave every day.

A little Barkeeper’s Friend and nuzzling dirty saucepans like a lonely barn cat will soften ‘em up for your shave
