Monotonous stuff that required using her brain more than her body. She had mostly sat in front of a monitor, crunching numbers about storms or the amount of recycled water lost each month. Life in the sky hadn’t required anything like it. Her body wasn’t used to this type of exercise. She stopped only to straighten her sore back. She could strip off the gloves, clean her hands, and bandage them up. Climbing back into the narrow compartment designed for supplies and sleeping sounded like heaven. It took every atom of her will not to rest.
