Well, I didn't fly yesterday, so much as limp a bit then fall over :rotfl:

So today, still drained. Slept terribly last night (bad dreams) I'm taking it steady.
Goals for today (deviating from Pigpens list)

Sort dry washing out and leave in relevant piles for kids to take up when they get back.
Swish and swipe bathroom.
Tidy kitchen in dribs and drabs. Looks like a bombsite again.
