Quick curing caulk I take it? I remember when I caulked our window frames/flashing that the cure time was a solid 24 hours. Didn’t need painting though since the caulk was the same color as the wood.
Morning everyone…
/walks into the lounge to see nothing was set up, so sets up fresh coffee, tea, juice, soft drinks and water, as well as bacon, eggs, donuts, toast and cereal.

Question - I just realized I was capped on Valorstones (2000/2000). What happens to Valorstones earned while you’re capped? I think I know the answer.
They go into the black hole of nether-ness.

Yep, that’s what I thought. 
You go! I was planning to do stuff today but I’ve been so lazy. I sorted through one tiny basket. Then I got two desk drawers jammed together and need to find a ruler or something to release whatever is stuck and clean out these drawers. If I can get out of bed. I think I still haven’t recovered 100% from COVID last September.
Paintable in 2-4 hours. Very low humidity and 70F so pretty much perfect drying conditions for it.
I just got the white primer on it so that is fantastic. If that is all that I do this year on that porch wall I can still be happy with myself. FULL cure is longer so you don’t want to get it all wet for a day or two. We should be fine. No rain in the forecast.
Any decluttering is good! Tiny steps. Your body can only do just so much so take those breaks too. Planning and making lists counts as progress you know!

Sweet. Hope it goes according to plan. 
I accomplished none of the things I said I was going to do during maintenance. Instead, I filed my taxes. I owed the IRS $39, but Minnesota owes me $45, for a net refund of $6. I remember fondly the days when my tax refund would buy me a really decent gaming PC, or even a down payment on a used car. This year I’m gonna splurge on a couple of energy drinks.
Correction - I paid TurboTax $128 to file, so I’m in the hole after all is said and done. Still gonna buy a couple Monster Javas. though.

I can mostly do mine myself, though sometimes I’ll see what TurboTax or similar thinks I should do.
I’m sure the IRS would rather I e-filed, but if they want me to do that routinely, they will have to make it free. My taxes aren’t even that complicated but they sometimes require schedules that generally prevent free filing. Usually it’s like one line on a two page schedule and it seems like a waste, but if the instructions say “you must report this on form 1234-X,” then I’m going to report it on form 1234-X.
Fortunately my state is simple - a few “what did you put on line Y of the federal form” and some state specific things that mostly don’t apply to me - and I can do it online free directly with the state as long as it isn’t overdue.
I can say for certainty that I have been around since 2007 in various forms but I’m sure there are others who have been here longer
Finally unstuck the desk drawers and sorted out office things, tools, electronics, and other random items from the desk into either where they belong, or bins for future sorting.
Found a flashlight I must have gotten at a baseball game with Astros on one side and Enron on the other. That’s a blast from the past!
Also found a pair of combination luggage locks, the kind where you can set your own combination. One of them was 000. The other one I don’t know, and a couple of YouTube videos didn’t help me crack it, so I started the brute force method of trying every possible combo. It’s 3 dials so only 1000 possibilities. Got through about half before my hands got too tired. But seriously thinking of just trashing it instead, since it’s too old to be TSA compliant and I don’t actually know what I’d use it for other than luggage. And I don’t travel that much these days anyway. Except now that would be admitting defeat. I will not be beaten by cheap little luggage lock!

well i can tell you that rockit made me not sleep for days 
Oh joy.
Game was not responding well (couldn’t even get a Token purchase to go through on AH), so I logged out and went back in on Kyzera. Now for some reason my warband campfire groups decided to jumble all my characters around.
This is gonna be a lot of dragging a ton of characters up and down the list into their assigned groups.
/sigh
Sorry, I’m still trying to make the roof higher.
But you know, ladders.
