Therefore, when you are getting up in the mornings, you don't forget washing you the face, because you get sit in the table.

Nunca había oído "rebabas" por "lagañas"... :thinking:

In English, lagañas is sleep (in the corner of the eyes). Where I grew up, we called them sleepers.

Go wash the sleep from your eyes.

I've never heard that and would assume it's specific to British English.
