What self care have you done today?

[Jessica.]

Did you exercise or practice mindfulness? Did you turn down junk food and have something nutritious? Did you have a bubble bath or pluck your unibrow? What are you doing to make life better for your future self?

[Jessica.]

I woke up very early and couldn't get back to sleep, I was in a slump. I decided to change my mood, I exfoliated my face with some nice smelling stuff and put on some fancy moisturiser. Usually I don't make the effort. I might be exhausted but my skin is glowing.

I hope this thread can inspire others to do something for themselves.

...you’re an inspiration, Jess..:lovedup:..so a friend gave me a beauty products Advent Calendar...all of the days that I’ve opened so far, I’ve put away and haven’t used yet...but behind today’s door was some ‘perfectly perfecting wonder balm’...it’s a miracle leave-in hair balm to be exact...which helps give you moisture, shine, smoothness, definition, softness, light hold, high humidity protection and manageability...or the short version, it’s all you need for beautiful, healthy looking and flawless hair...inspired by you, Jess...I’ve applied a little ..(..to towel dried hair as directed...)...and (..I think I might have...)...moisture, shine, smoothness, definition, softness, light hold, high humidity protection and manageability in my hair...I’ll check it out more closely in a minute...thank you, Jess...:love:..

It is as if i had not done that she would ave dragged her bum on the carpet and i would have had a right job to clean it and i would have felt awful to see the sparrow constantly bash its wee head on the greenhouse window

im pretty sure you would not want that to happen

[Strictly Jake]

I made myself have a bit of a sleep in this morning after waking up too early again

[Ant.]

no but i was about to do some exercises so thanks for the reminder :love:

:amazed: :hug: let's make this a regular thing!! :love:That's great, I hope your exercise went well!

I was planning to go for a brisk walk at the seaside today but that area is flooded because of heavy rain so it didn't work out. Got home and got into warm fluffy pyjamas instead. :love: It's freezing cold!

It did! Honestly I wish I did what you did instead. I just spent an hour walking thinking it'd burn more calories than it actually did:(

The dog sh1ts are usually due to them eating the chocolate you thought was in a safe place :)

Had a nice salad but also warmed up a lovely glass of mulled wine while settling in with a cute film after a long day at work.

Delayed grattification is something many people struggle with.

Sent from my SM-G965U using TapatalkI'm not great at it but I try. It's satisfying when you plan something out so things are easier for you in the future. Sometimes I put out my favourite cup, a spoon and a capsule at night for my morning coffee, then when I'm ready for it the next day it's like a little gift that I've left for myself.

This is a lovely little thread :love:

I am up really early today. Having lunch at a friends house this afternoon and out with my son at the pub later on for tea. So I have just painted my nails and they look lovely. Xx

It's freezing here today so I wore a lovely cosy new jumper I treated myself to, it's like wearing a hug

I had my ears shaved and eyebrows at my Turkish barber £9. He told me women should not vote as they vote rubbish things. His words

eyebrows shaved too? :worry:

[Dogeatdog]

I have been feeling quite tired because of work lately so over the last few weeks I’ve ditched the junk food and switched to getting more healthier foods on my lunch break. I’ve started to notice a bit of a difference tbh, feel much more energised during the days now.

[Crimson Dynamo]

yes that was the first thing he did

presumably they can only vote for the same "things" as men :suspect:

He also told me they had half a metre of snow back home and i just nodded as i had no way to check but it sounded suspect

That's lovely Marc, you really did yourself a nice deed with all of that!

[Kate!]

I bought my friend a bottle of brandy for over Christmas. Made me feel good as it is a special treat. X

[JerseyWins]

Brushed my teeth

Usually for "self care" I'll at least also shower and maybe go to the gym but lazy day at least for now :laugh:

[Beastie]

Cleansed, toned and moisterised.

[Jessica.]

Catching up on Bates Motel, will check out LuciferSome of the themes of Bates Motel made me a bit sad so I gave it a break, I'll definitely get back into it eventually. Lost in Space is a show I just finished, the second series comes out on Tuesday.
