#93. Shave every day for a Year

Completed July 1, 2001 @ Edmonton, Alberta

There are enough pictures of me shaving on this website so I don't feel obliged to show you another one (see the pictures page if you are eager to see me shaving).  I started and ended on Canada using my Gillette Mach 3.  I think that I only used 3 or 4 blades during the entire year.  I shaved my head right around the same time too.  

I must say that growing a beard for a year was much easier.  Sometimes I would just be settling in bed and then I remembered that I had not shaved that day, so I would get out and do a quickie.  This goal coincided with my first 11 months of marriage too, so it was good of me to get into the habit of shaving I think, just so that I would be cleaner looking for her.  I had to time it just right too so that I would not have to shave while on my canoe trip - goal #33. 

Well, it was also a lesson in discipline as are many of my goals. I am glad I can take Sunday's off now though.
