Ran in place to an A Way With Words podcast then to various YouTube videos. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk and sliced banana, water. Deep-cleaned portions of the bathroom. Continued work on the reference for W and T to adopt a child. Recently Patrick began a new canvas sketch for painting a reproduction of Hokusai's The Wave. Used the sewing machine to successfully repair linen pants that I bought in Thailand in 2012; the crotch had split. Lunch: I ate Patrick's leftovers from dinner. Patrick ate a lavash sandwich similar to what I had been having the past few days. Reconfigured dinner chair feet, replacing plastic, nail-ons with heavy-duty felt pads. Spot-cleaned the living room rug. Completed work on the reference for W and T to adopt a child and sent it. Recently realized that I permanently lost some data folders of music due to the Toshiba Canvio external hard disk drive problems I have been encountering and not having a good way to know when all data are restored after a full restore. Repaired the toilet seat lid which had developed a crack at the hinge. Continued playing Frogger in Toy Town on Apple Arcade on Apple TV. Dinner at home with Patrick: veggie burgers and skinny fries with dipping sauce, water. Watched Skyfall on Hulu Basic Plan with Patrick and dark chocolate with cherries. Partway through we paused to make and eat Martha Stewart’s Movie-Theater-Style Popcorn while we rewatched 1:42:33 of Skyfall on Hulu Basic Plan. Paused because of Patrick's bedtime. Patrick went to bed.
