No shave today.
Haven't felt much like shaving or posting much as I've been dealing this week with the aftermath of my father having a stroke on Monday evening. Since then, they have put in a pacemaker and are doing abdominal ultrasounds today because they are now seeing blood in his urine. It's been a pretty stressful week, but I'll have to force myself to shave tomorrow...He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.

Oh my!!! So very sorry to hear about your father Bill.
Praying that the docs will be able to determine where that bleeding is coming from and that he will make a speedy and full recovery.

The day? clearing after the first real rain in a month! The Shave? A nice shave to be sure! All the players followed direction as usual and Won. A buddy decided to make me a 7 day rotation holder. He succeeded!
The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!
