Breakfast at home: leftover veggie fritatta, hot water. Processed important mail. Retrieved a heater and the rug cleaner from the garage. Wiped some of the outer stairwell steps with a microfiber towel to clean some mud that appeared following recent rain. Physical therapy exercises to treat a minor back issue. Installed macOS 26.4.1 on our MacBook Pros. Repaired with the sewing machine loose thread at the bottom of one leg on the sweatpants I recently altered. Pre-lunch: leftover creamy potato, leek, and fennel soup; hot water. Lightly vacuumed with the handheld vacuum. Lunch: leftover spaghetti with spinach in Better Cheddar cheese sauce, hot water. Recently I set up a shared grocery list and taught Patrick how to add items to it using his voice with Siri. Before this he managed the list via SMS and TextEdit. I recently discovered that leaf vacuums exist, and I'm so glad I didn't buy a leaf blower before discovering this. Shopped for leaf vacuums. Patrick and I made aviation cocktails and played Deluxe Scrabble while eating from a can of Trader Joe's Step Up To The Snack Bar mix. I won. Too full from snacks. I ate french fries from frozen with ketchup. We watched the remainder of Sheng Wang: Purple on Netflix then YouTube. Patrick ate cereal with milk. We watched YouTube including the remainder of SNL s51:e16 on YouTube. Patrick went to bed. I cleaned in the kitchen and started the dishwasher then went to bed.
