Hey gents. I've been scarce the last couple of days. I love all the SOTD photos with the beautiful watches included. I'm definitely not the only watch nut 'round these parts.
As expected, stellar shaves with the Weber continue. A couple of days ago,
@Edison Carter and others discussed how some gents shave by going over the same area multiple times without re-lathering. I'm guilty. Yesterday, I made a concerted effort NOT to do this. I went for three easy passes with gradual reduction on each pass instead of trying to remove 80% on the first pass and finishing up on the second. One of the YouTube shavers calls the second the
money pass. (I still find myself taking small repeat strokes under my nose and around my mouth...need to work on this.) The end result was fantastic - more relaxing, super close, long-lasting and nary a smidgen of irritation. This was a nice change-up from my normal two-pass shave.
I have one more Lord Stainless blade to use, and then I'll go back to the SRX with a Feather blade or three. Feathers were my one and only brand of blade for several years until
@NCoxSTL introduced me to wonderfully smooth Russian steel awhile back. Now I keep a wider mix of DE blades in deep storage.
Great news to report...we accepted a verbal offer on our home. If everything goes as planned, we'll have a signed contract sometime this week and a mid-May closing. The buyers approached us, and we've been talking with them off and on for awhile. We never even put a sign in the front yard or an ad in the paper. We've been really blessed by how this all came about, and we definitely give God all the credit. The timing is perfect.
