Been staving off the tiredness with chores for most of today, busy doing some laundry, unpacking, washing the coffee grinder, sticking up command hooks, and mopping the house like it's never been mopped before (the mops got two rounds of machine washing and line drying to get the dirt completely out).

I confess over winter I've neglected mopping for far too long because I was wearing slippers the whole time - and I HATE mopping with the microfibre finger thing tho it does a good job when you do squeeze it out properly. There's areas that might need a fifth go over tomorrow because they still feel oddly sticky. The house definitely feels energetically (?) lighter and better now though. I have one of those spray mops now to (hopefully) make regular mopping easier.

Reheated my defrosted dinner, g&t is made, kicking back for the evening and then catching up on sleep. Don't like overnight flights for this reason...

Just remember less is more with floor cleaner - too much can make your floors sticky.

I've only been using warm water - I think the stickiness is from dirt or dust that's gotten smooshed around everywhere...

Maybe you do need some cleaner then to release the grease.
