Sorry for the absence gentlemen. Last week my wife told me she wants to leave me. After more than 20 years of marriage and raising three daughters together, that one kinda came in hard and I’ve been unfocused for a few days.
This is going to take some time no doubt.

So, here is Sunday’s shave.
The pic pretty much tells it I guess.
I think I used the sticky fingers EdP.

Hang in. It will be tough at times, but you will come out the other side. I've been there.

Thanks. I’ll take that to heart.

Ah, my friend, the eccentric French composer Eric Satie, talking about age, said, “People kept telling me to wait till I was fifty and I would see.” Satie said, “I am fifty and still haven’t seen anything.” This little gem can apply to anything. Life is strange, and it does not make any sense. We think we know something, but we really don’t. So keep up your spirit. My wife and I were married for 60 years until she passed away last year. I was lucky to have had her for all those years. Perhaps you will find someone else who will take joy in your life. Stay strong.i
