What is lovely? |
Really surprised by how many people use so many scented products on this thread i love moisturizer but pick unscented ones. Good ol' Aveeno is luxury to me. |
Mine come once a month. |
I live three minutes from work and I drive home for lunch every day. That 28 minutes away from kids (I’m a teacher) is essential. I could stay in the lounge but I give this to myself as a luxury to decompress. Even making small talk in the teachers lounge with others is energy zapping for me. |
Thanks pp for shifting to little things beyond store bought. My little luxury is my bike commute to work. It takes just a bit longer than if I had used the car or metro (about 30 minutes both way), but it gives me so much happiness, especially when it nice weather like these days. |
I did not think teachers could leave campus during the day. |
New postet. And YES, these are absolutely luxeries! |
Hi I would love to do this. Are you able to share details ? |
My espresso machine. I was never a big coffee drinker but last winter I started making lattes when it was cold and now I look forward to my latte (hot on a cold day, cold on a hot day) every morning. I enjoy the process of making it (grinding the beans, foaming the milk), and it is infinitely better than drip coffee (which may have been why I never drank it before). It feels fancy and special and I enjoy drinking it while perusing DCUM before starting my work day. |
Taking a nap. Snuggling with a pet. Going for a walk and listening to all the sounds. Spending a little time with the sun on your face. Want me to keep going? |
I work from home and do have videos calls many days a week but I have now heavily invested in nice athleisure wear since people only see my from the face up now. I have gotten some amazing joggers, sweats, sweatshirts, and other tops that feel amazing and are so comfortable. I get that some people are offended by the notion of not dressing up for work, but I love it. I'm cozy all day and it makes me happy. But I won't admit how much I've spent on some of the stuff because it's ridiculous, although totally worth it as these are the best products I've ever encountered. |
It makes it a little better if you have two sets of everything so you can strip and remake it in one fell swoop. Then when the other set is clean you fold it and put it away for the next time. It means you can get it done much quicker and it feels like less work. I do that with sheets and duvet covers, although I don't wash those every week. |
This. I devour books, both on my Kindle and via Audible, and I've decided that at this point in my life I deserve to read what I want when I want to read it so I spend hundreds a year on books and audiobooks but I love it and it doesn't bother me. I don't buy coffee out though, so honestly I probably spend less than most people if you consider that. |
It's hard to find but they do make. Amazon sells it. We buy it for our horses. |
I find that it's the bread. I've gotten bread from our favorite local sandwich place and the sandwiches at home are then just as good. But I can't find that bread at any grocery store anywhere so go figure. |
