To think this is self care?

Lighthearted.

My friend thinks I'm bonkers calling my cleaning sessions 'self care'. My son sees his dad once every 3 weeks for a whole day (9-6). In this time I put my pyjamas back on, put some loud music on and clean my house, whilst singing, dancing and will have a glass of wine. This for me is self care. Taking the time to make my house look lovely. Decluttering. Singing and listening to my favourite songs.

She thinks this can't possibly be self care, and that self care is a spa day or retail therapy.

What would you do for 'self care' if you only had one day to yourself every 3 weeks?
