July 2018 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thank you, Clint! We are getting by pretty well, but it is definitely nice my parents are here. Everyone misses mom, though.

 

Great picture, Joseph. I hope SWMBO surprised with the reaction to the scent.

 

Excellent picture, Jason!

 

I hope I don't disappoint!

 

Thank you, Andrew!

 

I completely understand.

I have Dickens (cherry, black pepper, nutmeg, cardamom, and lemon), and 42 (petunias, ambergris, tea, and Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster), which I use every towel day (May 25) and a few times through the year. The performance is top notch, and I enjoy the scents of these two, but I fully agree that all of their fragrances are very polarizing.

 

Me neither!

 

I owned a Lavanille. Loved it. Traded it because I cannot abide with brown soap.

 

Thanks Clint. I am not giving up on it yet.

 

Thanks for the info Andrew.

 

That remains to be seen Jim.

 

It comes as no surprise to many of you, but I have too much soap. I’m at a point where I don’t want any more. Really, I don’t. However, when a vendor like Jeeves makes a 30DC soap just for our group, I have to support him. Blood on steel set is ordered. Now I gotta figure out what to toss. I see a soap clearance sale in my future.

 

I feel the same way about razors. I'm at the point where they are just sitting there, and not being used. I may have to have a clearance sale soon myself.

 

I'm in.

Yet another great shave from the Rex! Two pass with touch up left me near BBS.

Schick E2 / Personna ( 3 )
JR #276 white ash and boar brush
Fendrihan Lavender Sandalwood soap sample
Alum and Lucky Tiger

Two quick passes wiped out about three days of stubble. Good shave.

In other news, while I am still on crutches, I am half walking on them now, gradually increasing the amount of weight my injured leg bears. And today I drove for the first time in over two months, without any problems at all. I am mobile again! Yay!
