February 26, 2024 High Proof Razor Gillette 7 O’clock Black Mr EE #4 LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave Happy Monday. I feel like I have returned the land of the living after having Covid most of last week and the weekend. Since I don't want to get anyone at the office sick, I will be working from home for the next several days. A wonderful drama free shave to start the day. I really can't ask for more. I will say that I am ready for this 3017 to be over. Take care and have a great day.
Monday, February 26 AoS Sandalwood~~Semogue 2012 Mistura~~Feather AS-D2/Astra SP~~Dehn El Oodh Malaki/Aramis Tobacco Reserve Chuggin' along with the AoS cream. I'll miss these products when they're gone. I have two more to 3017, but they're warm-weather scents. The Feather/Astra combo did a great job. Saw an SOTD with a Grooming Department (I think) Tobacco/Oud shave soap. I was intrigued, so I layered my own. Very, very nice stank.

February 28, 2024 Feather AS D2 Feather PAA ShaveRite 210 LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave Happy Wednesday. Another great shave to start the day. The soap is disappearing quickly. I expect it to be gone within 3-4 shaves at the most. Have a great day and take care.
Wednesday, February 28 AoS Sandalwood~~Simpson Tulip 3~~Gem Clog-Pruf/Gem~~St. Johns Bay Rum The T3 knows how to load some soap. Beefiest knot/handle in my den. Fresh Gem blade cleaned up the 48hour stubble with aplomb. Finished with a classic Bay Rum.

Thursday, February 29 AoS Sandalwood~~Simpson Persian Jar 2~~Kampfe Bros. Star Razor/Gem~~C.O. Bigelow Bay Rum The PJ2 has one of the softest knots I own. Luckily, the AoS Cream (not really cream, anymore, rather a softish croap) is easy to load. Crazy what kind of shaving contraptions were made back in the day. The engraving work is astounding. C.O. Bigelow makes a fine Bay Rum. Sadly, the balm has been discontinued.
This week I had a double focus, boar brushes and western grind kamisori. I happy to report the donut hole is growing. For the stank curious the lablel you can't see is Jicky. I also used my Cobra Classic one day. All in all excellent shaves and think this 3017 will go quickly as I need to use a lot of soap per shave. This week I had a 'fatty mass' removed from my back. It was not big and not a risk but I wanted it gone. Korea is currently undergoing a strike by junior doctors so I was worried that my surgery would be canceled. Fortunately my surgeon is a professor, so she was not on strike. It was nice in that the hospital was not very busy due to the strike and the nurse patient ratio was outstanding. I checked in at 8:00 and out in under four hours.
March 1, 2024 High Proof Razor Gillette 7 O’clock Black Mr EE LE #004 LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave Happy Friday Everyone. It is a rainy messy day here in the ATL. I am glad I am working remotely and avoiding all the crazy traffic. Another excellent shave to start the day. I am down to around 4 grams of soap left. This one will be "done and dusted" this weekend. Take care and have a great day.
