So I really think Sunday Mornings are my favorite time of the week. Usually it is when I am least busy and honestly can just be kind of lazy and enjoy it.
Even though I said it was time to be lazy, I actually don’t like sleeping in too late on Sundays. I feel like if I do, I’m wasting my lazy time on sleep and not being lazy. Weird right?!
So I like waking up around 8 am on Sundays. That way it gives me the whole morning to spend time on myself.
First I like to take a warm shower. I would prefer a bubble bath, but I have to work with what I got. I use to hate morning showers but now I love feeling clean first thing in the morning.
Second I love to take time and cover myself in lotion. My three favorites so far are the Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion (this really helps my skin in the winter), Olay Quench Body Lotion, and Bath and Body Works Winter Candy Apple Body Cream. I usually rotate between these three. Once I slather up, I put on my robe and let my skin enjoy the moisture!
Third I enjoy putting on a mask whenever I am trying to pamper myself. This one here is a favorite and I have repurchased it twice now. Highly recommend! I love how clean it makes my face feel.
Fourth – coffee! Do I really need to say anymore? 😉 My favorite so far has been this limited edition white chocolate mocha from Meijer. Seriously y’all, I could drink this whole thing in one sitting if I let myself.
Lastly, after I have my shower done, my skin all moisturized, face mask on, and coffee, I go curl up on the couch with my ipad. Sometimes I shop, sometimes I play around on pinterest, and sometimes I catch up on some youtube videos.
But this is my perfect Sunday morning. Now this isn’t always a weekly ritual ( I wish it was!). Today actually, I am busy all day long. But it is still important to try and make sometime whenever you can fit it in. Maybe for you it’s a Tuesday afternoon, or a Thursday night. But takes some time for yourself. BE LAZY! It’s okay to be lazy every now and then. 😉
