Today I tried something new. I shaved while in bed. (Electric razor / dry shave obviously.)
Is that weird? Or have you all done it numerous times?

Morning All!
It's Monday - 2023 Week 32
Yesterday: Good morning at church, though flagged badly during Sermon. Fab chat with friend over Zoom. Nice trip out in chair.
Awake a couple of times in night with tummy pains, digestion problems from dinner :-(
Today: Leading 8am and 10am. Not sure what else.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT, tummy and Head cope OK. Pray I sleep well tonight, getting off to sleep promptly. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

That's... mad. Bristles in the bed? That would send me over the edge. Get thee to a sink!

Have none of you ever used an electric razor before?
The bristles all go inside the razor until you empty it into the sink.
I’ve been standing pointlessly shaving over a sink for decades without a single bristle in the sink until I empty it. I could just as well have been anywhere in the house.

I now fear Martin will shave everywhere. Behind him in the queue for a cinema screen? Shaving. In the library checking out a book at the counter? Shaving.

Martin *eyes blink uncertainly from the dark looking at Martin using new-fangled technology* Do they really all go in the razor? ALL of them? do none escape? Have you checked? I used an electric when I first started shaving as my parents decided it would be easier - and when I was a kid, I sliced my face open when 'experimenting' with Dad's razor. However, the electric one irritated my face no end so I've wet shaved since my teens. |

Maybe this explains the "mysterious fires". They're all locations he's been caught shaving and he's had to take care of the witnesses..... |

Martin I've tried using an electric razor exactly twice. On both occasions the foil guard has shattered. This has convinced me that I am much better off using a manual safety razor. Which also, conveniently means I am not reliant on having electricity or batteries in order to shave... Karl |

I use a beard trimmer because I prefer to live in a permanent state of disarray, and there is nowhere for the hair bits to go but down. Shall not be doing that in bed, cheers!

Electric here as wet shaves more often than not irritate my skin.
I agree with Martin that the bristles stay contained and often shave around the house...
BUT NEVER IN MY BED!!
Martin, sort yourself out!

Electric shavers don't work on me. Nothing happens. No hair is removed. They just glide over my chin, achieving nothing. Doing nothing.

(That's rotate the blades in their plane, not your entire self around your vertical axis.) |

Morning All!
It's Tuesday
Yesterday: After a broken night last, yesterday was a bit of a struggle with digestion & muscle pain plus feeling very very tired. I may have a touch of whatever J has brought back with him from his week away. :-( DWP letter arrived with a form that completely fails to capture my circumstances. Books dispatched.
Better night's sleep. Moving very badly this morning
Today: Probably very little. Food order due. Mattel creations drop today at 5pm if I've done my PT -> BST conversion right.... and then something Pulse an hour later.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT, tummy and Head cope OK. Pray I sleep well tonight, getting off to sleep promptly. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

With perfect comedy timing, my fatigue of recent days revealed the cause as ear pain increased during the night. Off for a multi-hour wait in the walk-in centre after work late. I am prone to ear infections and a magic spray always works, but I am not allowed to just get it by phoning GP.
Sigh.
If I can get the magic spray tonight, it should be effective in time for TFN.
