Spa day (pre Covid times), a movie, or some retail therapy.

Some walk, some rants, some gossips, some videos and some great great sleep! Perfect end to a not so perfect day!

Typically a movie. But one thing that can work (at least for a few weeks) is having a dance party - 30 minutes, any playlist and you either sing or dance along with it. And I mean really sing or dance. Try it and let me know if it works for you.
