You know what I do not want to do again? Hire during a public health crisis. I've been wearing my mask way too much today as we do orientation. I don't have any new hires budgeted, but we are talking about one for our next fiscal year. However, that means April at the earliest so maybe a vaccine will be out by then (that would be optimistic, though).

Aw, poor pup. Is that a year? They're recommending a longer wait now, right?

Poor baby. Hope he recovers quickly and painlessly.

The post-surgery instructions say to restrict exercise for 7 days. He is a springer. He is used to speeding around our property, leaping over bushes. I think the worst part will be day 7 of him being restricted to being on a rope outside.

LOL. And it's not like it's abdominal surgery, so he'll be "raring to go" by about day 4, I'll bet.
When I had to keep Lucy strictly restricted for 6 weeks due to that awful crush fracture in her tibia, I confess to making judicious use of doggy sedatives, at the encouragement of the vet.

Good morning! While we think of dogs that seem to have been shipped from Ikea without the pictographic instruction sheet, let us give thanks for coffeemakers and teapots that come fully assembled. The coffee cart is up and running. Enjoy.

This reminds me that what remained unfound yesterday, after rakes and brooms were exchanged for snow scoops and shovels, and recycling garbage units were appropriately distributed, was a snow brush with a scraper. I made do yesterday with an old house broom, but no scraper. I had two of them after returning from out West, may have given one to my sister, but cannot locate the other.
And I have got to find somewhere to get plain ethyl alcohol (pref the 95%). It's hard to reliably find these days. I use it as a lock and windscreen de-icer a lot during the winter.

Where did you used to get it? Most of the time when buying it, it's not plain, it's 'denatured'. With stuff we used in the lab, we had to keep records due to the tax status.

Crap. Thanks for the reminder. I discovered leaving work last night that we hadn't put a brush in the CR-V yet and then I didn't think to get one when I got home. I think we have three in the house even after giving one to Little M for the car he took.

I'm sure I just used "plain" incorrectly, Chemgal. Just bottles of Isopropyl Alcohol 99%. I used to get it in the grocery store. I have seen the 70% elsewhere I think, and a quick search on-line indicates that 95% is another norm. I'm not sure what all of these terms mean.
