For those that don’t know even outside of truck driving I like to talk some skip. This ol girl is gonna need some work done to it . It’s an old realistic Navaho cb base station. I also have like 6 or 7 cb radios Ive had in rigs and pickups over the years.

Morning walk. Although it’s in the 50’s and windy, the view is hard to beat.

Gents, before we move too far into 2026, I want you to pause and look back intentionally. 1️⃣ Last Year Wins What’s 1–3 wins from last year you’re proud of? Doesn’t have to be massive. Progress counts — consistency, discipline, better decisions. Style upgrade you stuck with? A fragrance you finally made your signature? A watch milestone, collection refinement, or learning moment? A habit you strengthened, a distraction you cut, or a standard you raised 2️⃣ This Year’s Focus What’s 1–2 goals you’re deliberately committing to this year - not wishing for, but committing to? Could be... Sharpening your personal style as a form of self-respect Building a tighter, more intentional fragrance rotation Becoming more educated, patient, and disciplined with watches Showing up with more consistency - physically, mentally, and professionally Raising your standards in how you present yourself to the world Drop your wins and your focus below. Let’s build on what worked. And cut what didn’t!

You might recall my post from a couple of weeks ago when I lamented about a sweet pair of Allen Edmond Oxfords that I had found at a thrift store.They were too small for me, sadly, so even with the unbelievably low price, I left them and walked away. Well, a couple of days ago, I was in the same store and surprisingly, they were still there. They were still loudly calling my name, but I knew they didn’t fit, so it made absolutely no sense for me to spend the roughly $10 to buy them. But, they finally broke through my sartorial defenses, and with another 20% off, they came home with me! Add to them some reconditioning cream, some Safir polish, a topcoat of clear wax and some new strings, and I am now the proud owner of some gorgeous shoes that I still cannot wear! But they’re sure pretty! Can anyone here wear size 8D?
