Earthquake, again​

Yet another quake and this one has been really strong, the strongest so far. Not much to say about today's shave because all of my thoughts are for those who are suffering from the tremendous quakes we are having since August. Houses, monuments, churches, mountains collapsing down, people walking hopeless in the middle of the remains just waiting for all this to come to an end. And who knows when it will end. I consider myself very lucky because, although Perugia - the city where I live - is just few tens of miles away from the main area of quakes, we just listen to the rattling of doors, windows and walls shaken by the quake, objects and furniture moving around and nothing else. Only a little of fear and you know there is nothing you can do but waiting for it to end while thinking there are people not so far from here who are not as lucky as I am. And I cannot even imagine how scared they are and the fear they feel day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute.​

Love the razors in the stands in the background. Did you make the stands yourself?

Thank you. No, I didn't make them. The injectors in the background are sitting on test tube racks from Amazon, and the lazy susan is a pipe rack I bought on E-Bay.

I would like to convey my thoughts of sadness to your fellow countrymen and thoughts of hope that these quakes will come to an end so everyone can start to rebuild not only the buildings but their lives also. We must consider ourselves so fortunate not to find ourselves in a similar situation.
