Breakfast at home: I prepared for myself two eggs scrambled with salt and pepper, one hash brown with ketchup, one small pork sausage link, hot water. Cleaned the kitchen. Deep-cleaned the kitchen faucet aerator. Deep-cleaned the kitchen counter under the cutting board. Money management activities. Swept the patio and in front of the home. Lunch: one sumo orange, two slices of avocado spread on sourdough toast, water. Physical therapy exercises to treat a minor back issue. Finished editing two stories (Fridays… and SFTH) in Patrick's forthcoming short story collection. Dinner at home with Patrick: creamy potato, leek, and fennel soup, red beet and orange salad, and toasted French bread; water; white wine. I processed dirty dishes and cleaned the kitchen. Manually sewed a catch stitch on the sweatpants I recently altered so that the new seam I had created would lie flat. Patrick and I watched part of K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix. Patrick went to bed. Later I started the dishwasher. Late snack: two small egg rolls from frozen with dipping sauce.
