What cheers you up in the evening?

[SunshineAvenue]

When you're feeling a bit low? Nothing family or child orientated or outside of the home please.

Get some tunes on and dance and sing like no ones watching, even if they are.

Tonight it will be cheesy Death in Paradise..just for the sunshine!

Watching comedy (ghosts or miranda)
Listening to 80s pop

Real ale and an episode of cold feet

Oh yeah definitely "death in paradise" ("murder most jolly")

& reading funny autocorrects or funny translations

Long, hot shower, PJ'S on and watching TV in bed

Getting my pj’s and watching endless episodes of Friends.

Chocolate

Wine

A good bath, a treat drink (not necessarily alcohol if you are abstaining - a fancy fizzy drink or really good cocoa with whipped cream is such a treat too!) pyjamas and nostalgic movies... early night, getting ready for bed with a facial massage with nice oils and lots of candles lit... oh I wish! I'm so busy right now but this is what I'd normally go for

I hope whatever you end up doing that t cheers you up

Wearing PJs

Having a bath

Watching something comforting, like OFAH / Vicar of Dibley

Stroking the kitten

I'm lying on my bed in the dark pretending I dont have 3 DC downstairs who need me (DH is home from work so he's taken over before anyone panics). Death in Paradise and a glass of wine later. Maybe a bath if I have the energy to turn the taps on.

Reading my book in the bath, having a cup of tea with some biccies to dunk in! Watching some Netflix on tv xx

Wine and my labrador sitting on the sofa with her head in my lap

Wine and chocolate

An entire (small) box of Maltesers.
A very hot, strong cup of tea.
An episode of Lewis/Midsomer Murders.
A snuggly fleecy blanket shared with the dog.
In your PJs, after a hot shower.
Put the electric blanket on on the bed, sit with laptop and flick through one of the 'Guaranteed to give a giggle' websites (like Cake Wrecks or Autocorrect Mistakes).
And then a nice early night. Everything looks better after a good night's sleep.

Thanks for these. Had just had a long bath before posting and am in PJ's.

Can't have wine (dry January) or chocolate (diet), definitely no energy for dancing, too tired for reading. Shattered after work, been on my feet all day. Family worries one after the other, none of which I can do anything about. Bloody fed up!

Could go to bed and listen to audio book/podcasts or watch some crappy TV.

I think I should get out for a mega long walk tomorrow, blow some cobwebs away. That will probably help.

Best Home cook will be on shortly. I'm done dancing so that will fill in the time before bed.

Vodka

Cup of tea. Banana with peanut butter. Really nice fiction book, under blanket on the sofa.

Haha Cake Wrecks, never seen that before. It is cheering me up! Elsa baboon cake! Happy 1st birthday written on a cake in the shape of a number 2 😅

Glass of wine
Books - old faves - James Herriot, the Mitfords
Netflix - Little Women, Virgin River, also Seinfeld

Ooh yes, I do often take a walk-in the evening

Supposed to be running really

Cat cuddles

Hot shower
English rose body butter from the body shop
Yorkshire bedtime tea
Toast made with nice bread
A bubblegum chicklit book
