Lounging around the house; there's nothing better. It feels good to have nothing to do in particular, no where to go, but stay home, and lounge around. “Doing nothing” is an act of self-care, because it gives your mind some rest.  Perhaps you could just sit quietly, meditate, read a favorite book or just listen to music. Either way, lounging in a comfortable lounge chair is a great day spent  enjoying your home. These lounge chairs from Wayfair give a variety to choose from. It's a small investment, but one I think is worth making.

OK. This looks cool. Easy and quick icecream treats at home? Definitely one to put on your wishlist. I love every appliance I have tried from this brand. And loving this new find from them. Have a smoothie in the morning with the Ninja Bullet,  and an icecream later; and all in the same day. That sounds like really being good to yourself.
