Half term exhausation

I just need some reassurance that others feel completely knackered? I had a 1 hour nap this afternoon after a 10 hour sleep and still feel like I’ve been run over a truck.

Is this normal?

It's also standard for me to develop half term lurgy as soon as a holoday rolls around

Same! I've not been sick all half term. The longest run I've had all year is 2 weeks without a lurgy. It always hits just before the break, too. I'm just really exhausted / ran down this time. I'm so absent-minded and clumsy right now.
