My realistic list had three things on it. I've achieved all of them, and then some.

1. I took laptop to the shop, was informed that they will need it for 2-3 days, and that I should bring it back when I have that time available. The sticky key issue is a known defect, not indicative of something having got under the key (at least, probably not). And that I'm lucky it was a cursor key, not one of the others. The random shut down - not so helpful. I'm supposed to be keeping a log. I think what I need to record is when I walk away from the computer, whether I leave it open or closed. And then when I come back, put the time in (and maybe calculate the new time?) and whether it had tried to shut down. Urgh. I'm going to have to do this on paper. Not sure how to handle it.

2. Returned everything to ex-work. Worked out how we are handling affiliation, given that I don't work there any more, and I don't have a relevant current affiliation.

3. Have done some prep. Bought a few snackables, some pre-packaged (vegan, gf) curries that can be stashed for emergency me (and others) food, and flour for cooking.

Also, have done a bit of tidying, before running out of oomph. And some other shopping, some of which has been handled. And got kids to help with dealing with some of the mess. *sigh*.
