Vacation day 2 of 16 during COVID-19 shelter in place. Ran in place to Glee s3:e1 on Amazon Prime Video on Apple TV. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, cinnamon, raspberries, dried tart cherries; one blueberry-ginger muffin, water. Groceryshopped online with Patrick. Continued troubleshooting iDrive backup error: "A file name with the same directory name already exists". Here is the solution: compare local to cloud for each folder in the path looking a *file* in the cloud vs. a *folder* on local (or vice versa) and then when the conflict is found remove what’s in the cloud. Attempted to resolve some scratches on our dining table. Gave up after paste wax and furniture crayon failed. Paste wax had no effect perhaps because the scratch is too deep for it to hide it. The crayon failed I think because the scratch is too shallow for the crayon wax to remain embedded. Patrick might try staining with coffee grounds, but I'm too afraid of trying anything else which might make things worse due to our inexperience in repairs like these. Lunch: leftover beef noodle soup, water. Patrick made cornbread from The Good Book of Southern Cooking. Played Dream Detective on iOS with Patrick. We did not realize for a while that after finding the objects shown at the bottom of the screen you can scroll to the right to reveal more objects to be found and that there is a countdown timer which seems to indicate that there's a limited time to each level. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, pumpkin pie spice, raspberries; water. Nap. Fletch stopped by briefly to drop off some cookies, and we gave him some cornbread in return. Dinner at home with Patrick: delivery from Mozzarella di Bufala via Uber Eats: cuore special with chicken, feijoada completa, brazilian flan. Afterwards we watched about half of Home Alone (1990) on Disney+. Patrick washed dishes and went to bed. Created some new color palettes in Adobe Color. Late small meal: half of mini ravioli from a can. Washed dishes.
