Breakfast: spinach and mushroom quesadillas with grated mixed cheeses, half banana, hot water. Physical therapy exercises to treat a minor back issue. Lunch: Patrick ate soft scrambled eggs with spinach in a tortilla. I skipped lunch. Continued the undercabinet light replacement project—the next one to install is above the dishwasher. Before starting, I realized that the mounting screws included with the fixtures was indeed long enough. I had thought it wasn't long enough and substituted longer screws, but today I realized that the original screws were the correct size. So I had to correct the mounting screws for the previous two fixtures we had installed. That took some time. Then, for today's new fixture install, I successfully removed the desired knockout, but then we ran into a hurdle: the wires weren't long enough to pass through and connect to the fixture. We took a break. Patrick napped. I continued troubleshooting solutions, which included setting up the ironing board on top of the counter to support the new fixture while I could see if there were a different way to resolve the problem. Later Patrick woke, and I cleared the kitchen of work tools so that he could prepare dinner. Dinner at home with Patrick: broccoli and cheese quesadillas with avocado, hot water. Afterwards I had a half glass of red wine. We watched Pluribus s1:e8 on Apple TV. More updates and backups for home devices. Encountered some issues for website updates and could not figure it out.
