10:17 –<\/span> Along with doing laundry, it’s another lab day for me today, while Barbara labels and fills containers and makes up subassemblies for the biology kits. She’s working upstairs today, filling containers with non-hazardous materials. Tomorrow, we’ll work downstairs, filling containers with hazardous materials. Well, actually, they’re not hazardous, except to our work surfaces and floors. I’m making up several stains today, most of which would indelibly stain counters, tables, and hardwood floors. We’ll fill those containers in the basement.

All working chemists get used to having stains on their hands.
