Nice job Warp! That's why you might be cold these next few days, less insulation! :lol:

Right now I'm trying to figure out which of the 5 year old twins I'm scheduled to work on next will be the most cooperative

 

[Warp Daddy]

Mentally debating on whether or not my W-2 that arrived with the weekly office paychecks this AM will end up satisfying Uncle Sam or if he'll be looking for more Somehow I suspect as he usually does, he'll want more

I do feel your pain doc ! I went thru my pre tax work up just after the holidays -- altho our investment portfolio was up nicely this yr, its always a challenge to keep your hard earned cash from the tax beast

Making bread in the bread machine. New recipe I'm trying; hopefully, it's more flavorful than the ones I've made before.

Personally I find when I use my bread machine that no matter what the recipe calls for, I"ll always reduce the required liquid by between 1/4 to 1/3 cup and replace what it calls for with an equal amount of maple syrup. Then again I really like maple flavored things , but it does give the yeast a bit of extra sugars to ferment And "happy" yeast is a good thing with respect to bread making!

Right now I'm procrastinating going into a treatment room to see one of my chronic hypochondriac complainer patients

Just about to finish up working on multiple special needs patients. Very often fun to do, but also VERY mentally draining work managing them while I'm working on them.

12 pounds in 10 days..wow that's crazy...I've never lost 12 pounds before..I am down about 4 pounds so far this year because I've been drinking half as much beer..5 beers instead of 10 beers makes a big difference..lol

Baking Quick and Easy Cinnamon Bun Bread... and counting the minutes to bedtime.

Leaving the office! Time to clean the "massive" amount of snow off my car that piled up today :lol:

 

[drjeff]

Reading the paper, getting the morning caffiene fix going. Gotta a few extra minutes to do so, as my first patients of the day isn't coming in since the car won't start.

 

[Dr Skimeister]

Likewise sipping some Joe and reading the paper. Already admitted two patients for the day, done a suture removal, talked to my accountant. Front page news in local paper is about the trial of a local dentist accused of fondling young female patients as they recover from procedures.

My guess would the the standard defense of "I needed access to the plaintiffs chest/torso to check her vital signs" Gotta ALWAYS have atleast one assistant in the room, preferably of the opposite sex of the Doc in sedation cases, not just for safety reasons, but for liability reasons too! That's the first big concept they hammer into someone during sedation training courses!

Right now I just relagated to to roll of "official hygienist checker" for the office as I've now had my 1st 2 patients of the day unable to start their cars this AM

 

[Warp Daddy]

That's exactly what the defense is asserting. Even they are saying that he's a "dinosaur" that has stuck with techniques he learned in dental school in the '70's.

The whole thing has taken on the air of a small-town soap opera. Yesterday the jury had to be dismissed and the plaintiff's legal team moved for a mistrial when the defense introduced an annoymous email they had received that alleged that one of the five women plaintiffs had an affair with a married man recently.

My guess is that the Doc's attorney better be pitching settlement, settlement, settlement to this guy! One complaint, you *might* have a chance in court. 5 complaints, time to start writing some checks for what ever is left in your retirement account

For the first few runs at Blue last night, I didn't have balaclava on, but thankfully I had it in my pocket.

Congrats on breaking half a million in vert
