August 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks Clint!

 

Thanks Joe. Your words are always encouraging and uplifting. God bless you, my brother.

 

Thanks Terry. My beard's not heavy, and I nearly always swap my blades after 3 shaves. I could get 5 or 6 shaves out of a Feather, but I have so many blades that I could be a crazy Uber driver.

Pulled out the Maximo Gomez for Tobacco Tuesday, and am still going with the SA-109 and Wizamet. Still love the scent of this soap! Kept the BB wide open and was rewarded with another good shave with completely smooth results. A little neck redness, though.
There was some talk on here yesterday about never finishing off full tubs of soap. Well, this one has potential:
Still a number of days left, obviously, but the end is in sight. My Sudsy Soapery Jack Frost is in the same boat. I think I'll use the Jack Frost for Menthol Mondays, and this soap for Tobacco Tuesdays until they are gone. Won't result in a den reduction, unfortunately, as I bought a back up tub of this soap when the original owners sold the company a few years back.
This will be my last shave in the den for some time, as I'm flying out of town for meetings for a few days.
Have a great day, all!

 

Thank you, Luke Skywalker!

 

For practice they certainly wear shorts and t-shirts. Our first game is August 23 and we'll be in full uniform. I often let them take the uniform jackets off once we're in the stands, but they wear the full uniform while on the field.

 

Nice shave and safe travels, Jason!

 

Great shave, Jason!

 

I call this my summer retirement outfit, with the season being April 1st through December 1st. My HS band days are over, but who says old dudes can't be fashionistas too?

 

Sounds like you will be very busy at work for a bit, Jim. I hope it goes well. A nice looking shave to start the day for sure, at least!

 

Thank you, Clint!

 

One more day! You've shown great determination beating that soap into submission, Perry. Any day with the Jeeves Tobacco/Bay is a good day, for sure.

 

Take care, Danny! The L'Orange Noir is a great way to start the day.

 

Thanks Terry! That's one product I'll purchase again. It does last both on the skin & in the bottle. Not sure my heirs will appreciate it but I'll keep some on my shelf.

Merci beaucoup Joe!

Thanks Clint! I had to go deep in my PMs - It was Doug @Douglas Carey that was scouting and gathering logistics intel for Charlie @wristwatchb. Makes sense to put a Marine on point! Kathleen @Salty Belle stalked my posts to compile a file and select the scent for Charlie. It was a well planned multi-prong operation!

 

Wonderful shave and photo, Jason. This soap is definitely on the ropes...soap on a rope?...uhmmm...you know what I mean. Have fun on the business trip. Going anywhere interesting?

 

Lovely combo! Sorry to hear about the A/C, Clint. Well, if you come visit in January, I guarantee you won't need it here...

 

Great shave and picture, Jason!
I don't have a soap even close to the elusive donut hole.
Safe travels!

Thanks, Jason! I agree on the Jeeves statement. What a great aftershave.

When we moved temporarily to the cabin for two months, and then into our new house, it was apparent that I had too much shave gear, mainly soap. My razor stash is manageable, but honestly I have too many of those. Just too much stuff! So I'm hoping to finish some soaps off and that'll mean very repetitive posts at times over long periods of time! I'm proud to finish this one off and am considering my next target. September will be Stirling SEptember where I'll rotate through all my Stirling products. October might be Oleo October where I'll focus in on my Oleo New City soap. We'll see, but I'm of the mindset to actually pare down my den. I did buy Stirling Blood on Steel soap and splash but I haven't made any other purchases in a while.

 

Very nice Charlie and enjoy your day!
