TLDR : Answer Summary

The user, a 68-year-old individual, inquires about staying in Phuket for 117 days by utilizing an initial 60-day visa exemption, taking a short trip to Kuala Lumpur for 1-2 nights, and then returning to Phuket to potentially obtain another 60-day extension. The comments confirm that this plan is feasible and advise ensuring proof of onward travel when entering Thailand.

Shouldn't be any issues. Just have your ticket to Kuala Lumpur ready to show your airline when you fly to Thailand as they may require you to show proof that you are leaving Thailand within 60 days.
