BBS to a new level.

After a nice dinner this evening (including most of a bottle of Pepperwood Grove Viognier) I headed in for a shower and shave. I normally shave in the morning but I got busy and missed this AM. Now I should mention that I have crippling arthritis, and after dancing a bunch on New Years eve I have been in pain all day. The hot shower with lots of Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap followed by a good lathering of C&E Nomad set the stage. I seldom use my str8, but decided to tonight . I stropped my favorite Double Duck and went to town. Shaving is an easy job now that I am growing a mustache and goatee (negating my pointy chin which is always difficult to shave with a str8) Look Ma; No Cuts I followed that by three passes on my cheeks with a 38 C loaded with a feather blade. I followed the shave with an application of Nomad cologne and ASB. This may be the smoothest my face has been since birth
Too bad it won't be so smooth when I wake up in the morning
Oh Well, that's life.
Take Care All, Ken.

Ken, I'm sorry to hear about your arthritis, but I'm very happy to hear that you got such a great shave! Best wishes for your new year.

Not to go off topic, but do you have RA? My mother and grandmother suffer from it.

I had juvenile RA as a child. It just sort of went away. No doubt that is part of the equation, but I worked as a seaman for 37 years. Always damp, and steel bulkheads and decks, vibrating kinda shooks things loose. I didn't help myself by snow skiing, racing dirt bikes (motorized) and generally having fun.
