I did spend a large proporation of the time worrying that I hadn't entered enough 000's in the "delete x number of days" box and had destroyed everything by mistake! Fortunately not!
The Ship is now very tidy indeed and a full maintaince programme has been run. Bilge tank flushed, barnacles removed ...

What? It's happened? In the time it took me to nip to the shops for a bag of onions and some leather dye (hours of fun in that combo).

I missed it, too, even being fore-warned: "Stay awake, for ye know not the hour nor the day".
WW's suggestion is a good one. Days of Unholy Disobligation ( DUD ) so that our eyes might rest, and our fingers be folded in prayer. And how glad would we be when our Ship is visible again .
