Can we have a thread about nice things / self care things that you enjoy?

[Joyfulincolour]

I’ve had a really busy time at work over the last 2 months. I’ve worked long days then had to come home and continue to work. I’ve often been waking up at 4am, remembering things to do!
I now need to take some time back to spend it with my family but I’m also trying to think of some nice things to do that will make me slow down and enjoy the run up to Christmas.
What do you all enjoy doing when trying to make time for yourself?

A cat, a fire, a good cup of tea. Comfy clothes and a good audiobook. Plus a really nice yarn to knit a simple pattern with. Bliss.
