February 2021 30 Day Rule/30 Day Focus Pic and Discussion Thread- All are Welcome

Yeah…

Did the doc say what size the cup should be?!? US? Bubba sized? Eastern?

But, in all seriousness, even a cup of good coffee will have enough caffeine to help take the edge off. Make it a good one. Nice strong Sumatra Pour Over or French Press.

 

Prayers @clint64 for a speedy resolution. Hopefully, you'll have relief soon. I'm thankful you have access to world class medical care in ATL.

I had to do the cup a day thing a few years ago. Kathy is doing it now. It's not too bad after you get going. Maybe you can find another hot drink to enjoy in the meantime.

I always heard you shouldn't have a cup of coffee after dinner, so I use a soup bowl. I took possession of a favorite transplant house soup bowl in Rochester this summer after I told this same joke 253 times. I live for eye rolls. They were glad to be done with me up there, but I haven't told 'em yet we're returning in July.

Take care, my friend, and please keep us posted.

 

My man! I love loopholes almost as much as partial credit and having an alibi.

 

@clint64 Just had a thought. I'm no doctor. Didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night either.

Don't know what medications you have prescribed. No need to share. Short story, I had an asthma drug interaction that put me in ICU in my high school years (mid 70s). Back when they didn't know all the interactions. Was in an ICU oxygen tent for 3 days, nearly iron lung...yes, that bad. Still to this day take asthma meds.

Anyone looked into drug interactions in your situation? Sometimes docs don't know all the prescriptions, vitamins, etc. one has on their daily regimen. Like in my father's case now who has a Primary Care Provider, a podiatrist, a cardiologist, ophthalmologist and a separate retina specialist, even a dermatologist, all prescribing meds. Every visit, at every doc, I get a questionnaire on any of his med changes/additions, what they are, and who prescribed them. Might be worth a question with your docs and/or pharmacist if it hasn't been vetted out.

 

Thanks Joe.

 

Thanks Gentlemen for the kind words!

 

Yes!

 

The post difference is probably deliberate and just enough to keep the attorneys at bay….

Blackland’s razors do get pricey. My examples from Shane have always used sale pricing, or early purchase pricing. Otherwise they get really close to my self imposed imaginary limit of $ to spend on a razor. The fit n finish, polishing is exceptional though.

 

That is very ingenious!

Yes, indeed.
Thanks.
You too.

Nice.

 

Thanks, Blair. This Oud makes an excellent first layer for a number of different scents.

 

Thanks, Joe. It's quite simple actually. You have to like Oud for this to be appreciated. Oftentimes, products with "Oud", are laced with many other scents to alleviate the "barnyard" scent. For some reason, my nose is quite attracted to the scent and I find it more than intoxicating.

 

Good post, Barry.

 

Primo.

 

Thanks Joe

 

Yeah, I waited for his BF Sales to get the ones I have at significant reduction. I've got mixed feeling on these ones that always sit back and steal others designs instead of having an original thought or imagination of their own. It's easy to keep costs down when you just reverse engineer others designs and research with zamak and pop things out. Not condemning it or people buying them, just saying I have mixed feelings about it. Looking forward to Danny's @Hembree thoughts on it.

Great shave Barry and always loved the Art Deco look to the 1912

 

Thank you Blair. I am planning on a nice strong large cup this morning. Luckily I have been cutting back a lot over the last couple of months.

Good idea on the meds. However I’ve been on the same meds for a very long time. All the doctors know about all the meds and any supplements. The Neurologist even commented that many of them actually would provide relief from headaches.
