    Well friends, I just took my last right-handed shave for the next few months. I’m heading out the door for a hotel, and check into a hospital at at 5:30am for a shoulder surgery...........mine is nice and messed up.

    Ramblin Man got the honors as I won’t trust myself to whip up a lather one-handed next week and risk dropping my antique mug. I’m taking Brandy Spice to splash on before leaving the hotel. I don’t want the surgeon too distracted by anything fancier.:D

    Anyway, I’ll check in after a few days and let you know how wet shaving one-handed goes for someone with below average coordination on his wrong side!

    Since acquiring a bottle of Acqua di Parma Colonia EdC and only having a small amount of the the AdP soap, I added this to my den yesterday.

    Best of luck with your surgery. My guess and hope is that you will do just fine left handed. I am right handed as well but have tremors in my right hand so I've been shaving left handed (no tremors in my left hand) for years with no problems. If I can do it anyone can. Good luck.

    Hey, good luck with the NB! Y'know, I'm just planning on two more purchases this year(after the Stoylin bath soaps come). I"m thinking about a NB2020, thus just in case, I'll put in the Stoylin 2020 Tony winner order between Christmas and New Year's(that is, immediately after I announce the champion and runner-up), and one order from another company, which I'll make around late August or September(it's for the fall&winter season). Actually, also "just in case" I feel confident about a NB2020, I'll put in for some Clubmen, too,so let's make that 3 orders before 2020 arrives.

    I had a most enjoyable face freezing shave from the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap yesterday. The Glacial Unscented balm felt plenty frigid also and so soothing!

    Thanks for the "preface" shave(I call it that since I'm getting set to get going on it(probably next week sometime).
