vices, indulgences, necessities

Some things are a combination of all of these.
1) Coffee. Yes, I'm down to half-caf in the morning, but I have slightly upped my iced decaf consumption. I've also tried cold-brewing my own, using the smitten kitchen's recipe with varying results. The key is not using artificially flavored coffees.
2) Foot Soaks. These do double duty to relieve my swollen toes and general relaxation. I love Earth Theraputics' tea tree oil soak with peppermint, and have already gone through two jars. In fact, I'm soaking my feet as I write this (and praying I don't drop my laptop)!
3) Massages. Spa vs. Bodywork--there's definitely a difference. I like both, but the bodywork is less expensive because they take insurance, and there's a certain professionalism that I'm more used to.
4) A special body pillow. I'm a back sleeper, but it's just not comfortable anymore. I also needed the back & hip support, so I broke down and bought a Snoogle. Seriously, it was like choosing a car, since I wasn't buying the $10 pillow at target. I like this one because it's firm, but spending an extra $20 on a cover seemed silly to me. For now I'm subbing in king-size pillowcases on the end for softness, but eventually I'll have to do something--either make one or co-opt a $10 target body pillow cover.
5. Makeup remover/ facial cleansing cloths. When moving from the couch to bed, these are great if nothing else but making sure I get all the junk off my face before crashing out early.
