Sometimes its hard enough to get through the workday, much less face dishes and housework afterward. It’s enough to make Miss I. want to run away to a glamorous hotel and abandon it all permanently.
That’s when I know it’s time for an R&R night. First, light every delicious smelling candle you have in the house- I like warm scents like vanilla, pumpkin, cinnamon, and cider, but to each her own. Turn off the t.v. and the lights, and put on some soothing tunes. Now is not the time for techno and loud house music- try some blues, jazz, or that perpetual snooze-fest, easy listening. Anything that makes you feel slowed down. Dial for take-out and paper plates. Pour yourself a glass of wine. Snuggle up under a blanket (alone or with your own Mr. or Ms. Impeccable) and be quiet for thirty minutes. If you can spare the time, stay longer.
Spritz your sheets with some lavender linen spray and crawl underneath. Better now? I thought so.
