Melly, I try to do the same thing...I call them a jammie day. I give myself a facial, do my nails, and put on a comfy pair of flannel jammies...I usually throw something in the crockpot and crochet and watch movies...it has been awhile for me...I try to do the once a month thing too..usually it is when I am having my monthly cycle anyway...lol
A great time to slow down and chill out.
