Sorting takes a while, beanie, as you know (but may not apply to yourself!). I had some good advice when I moved here - make one room, or even one corner of one room, a pleasant place to sit in, and it was *good* advice.

Oh beanie! I'm glad you've stepped back and got some sleep - you've been under a lot of stress, and from the sound of it its still here
Not sure about the energy thing - was that a penalty? Or had you used it, and they wouldn't wait to recover it monthly? Bummer, though, its a lot of money all at once
Take care xxx2023: the year I get to buy a car1 -
