Breakfast: one-egg and cheddar on toasted english muffin, hot water. Repaired hairline cracks along the left vertical edge of the sliding glass doors in the living room with Dap Wood Putty. Began removing old caulk and grout where the kitchen countertops meet the wall. Physical therapy exercises to treat a minor back issue. Lunch at home with Patrick: deli chipotle chicken breast and cheddar sandwich, hot water. Continued kitchen countertops old grout and caulk removal. Did some deep-cleaning of the tile backsplash behind the range. Helped Patrick add cork pads to the backs of art on our walls. Midafternoon snack: one sumo orange, water. Cleaned the half bath sink. Swapped two SnapPower MotionLights because one has a sensor that doesn't turn the light on until you're walking right next to it; it had always been like this since I installed it, but dealing with the company to return two GFCI MotionLights was so much trouble I decided to not try my luck. Swapping positions provided a better result in our case because one location doesn't have that much space in front of it anyway. Foot care. Printed the controller actions map for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Dinner at home with Patrick: TJ's pesto pizza with salad, hot water. I cleaned the kitchen. Afterwards we watched YouTube. Patrick went to bed. Plant maintenance. I started the dishwasher. Tested swapped MotionLights, and it's better now. I wouldn't buy SnapPower MotionLights again. When they work, they're nice, but they don't sense movement at a reasonable distance reliably every single time.
