Today is a day to celebrate! I have been “stuck” at a job that I liked at the beginning but have really not been enjoying. I gave proper notice and left with well wishes and an invitation back if I need it. In a couple days I’ll start my “new” job. I have worked for them before and it will be temporary. It’s been a long road and I’m only like a third of the way there, maybe halfway.

I tried to load 2 grams of soap and it just would not accept the soap. The lather turned out great. The shave was alright. I went for a full 3 pass shave. I normally just do 2 passes, XTG and ATG. I am going to try a 2 pass WTG and XTG. As always the HoM recovery supplies were able to calm down my skin after the bit uncomfortable shave.

Here is a special album from today. I could not be sure which picture I really wanted to use so here they are!
