Things that make you more comfortable

A cool breeze…

Food, something to put my feet up on, air conditioning when it’s hot, lots of pillows

This time of year, definitely fuzzy socks! From, say, mid-October until the weather warms again, I don’t wear any other kind of socks!

Plus (also cold-weather-related) my heated mattress pad. About a half-hour before I go to bed, I turn my mattress pad on, pull my blankets up so they warm up, too. If I’m going to get in the bathtub, I will often put my nightshirt and fuzzy socks between the mattress pad and the blankets, so that my nightshirt and fuzzy socks will be all warm and cozy when I’m done in the bath!

Home made macaroni and cheese (the casserole kind, not Kraft Dinner).

The ability to destroy others in Eve-Online when I need a stress relief.

Unfortunately, cigarettes again, after having been quit for three years.

Taking my bra off when I get home. Represent, ladies!

Thermal underwear. The closeness to the skin somehow makes me sleep better.

Only for cold nights, though. It’s summer here, now, so they will not be utilised.

My sheets made on tshirt fabric

My Skechers without shoelaces

My favorite hoodie

Taking my bra off when i get home.

the teal comforter on my bed

Can’t, I’m afraid. I’m less comfortable with my bra off, I don’t like the way they lollop around.

Central air conditioning. Pizza. Ice water. Ceiling fans. Lots of houseplants. Ice cream. The first flowers in spring. The first snowfall. The smell outside, after a thunderstorm. My Sunday-night chorus rehearsals. Soup. An omelet. A bath. Chopin’s music. The song “Something.” Playing my violin. My Calphalon cookware. Walking barefoot on grass. Butterflies and dragonflies. Waffles. My king-size bed. My MacBook. My paintings. My art supplies.

Snowstorms. For some reason I feel more snug knowing there’s more than a foot of snow on the ground, even if I have to leave the house.

A massive fire in the fireplace.

Fingerless gloves. My shawl and/or my bathrobe. Pajama pants. I don’t understand how people can lounge around the house in real clothes. I only get out of sweats or pj’s if I’m going out in public. I just don’t find real clothes comfortable.

Freshly washed sheets.

Uggs clog-style slippers
Hand-knit wool socks (knit by me, tyvm)
A scarf around my neck, if it’s chilly
Woven, not flannel, sheets. Flannel sheets are like velcro, I hate them
Good, fast, reliable internet
Good, fast, reliable plumbing (the above two are things one never gets at relatives’ houses)
A cool temperature in the house
A quart-size Mason jar to drink water out of

This!

Oh yes! I forgot this. My boobs hurt after being in a bra. There’s an initial increase in pain when they first drop out of the bra but after that, the relief is wonderful.

Not to mention the pleasure of an underboob scratch.

I may have said too much.

Wait… you’re a she?

microfiber plush sheets and pillow cases.

chronic pain makes my skin sometimes oversensitive, and the plushy sheets are fantastic, a lot of the time standard bedsheets feel like sandpaper to my skin.

My hot tub. Hot water soaking makes my joint pain reduce for several hours.

decaf chai latte with real cream. By damn, I may not be able to handle caffeine any longer, but I can do splenda sweetened chai tea latte! I can snuggle up in bed in my plushy sheets, play eve online on my laptop and sip latte

Twinnings mixed berry tea, extra hot with a splash of milk and some soft fuzzy socks are just the thing to brighten up a cold morning.

I also love my old Hello Kitty flannel pajama pants. So comfortable.

Antihistamines. Migraine medication. AC. A good hot shower. Not necessarily at the same time.

Hot bath.
Two dogs on sofa with me gazing at me adoringly (or reproachfully if I stop petting).
My bed is an old waterbed frame with a bookshelf as the headboard. The shelf is crammed with books. They spill out onto the bed. There are some more on the floor in a canvas carrier and still more on a bedside table. Ah, bliss: being surrounded by books.
Keeping my feet warm even in summer.
Baggy cotton (long) pants and t-shirt. No. Underwear. At. All.

Putting my pajamas/loungewear in the dryer for about 5 minutes right before I change into them. The timing is important. You may be tempted to take them out after 2 minutes, since they will have warmed up some, but they cool down too quickly unless you give them more time.

My quilts.

Books.

Putting my warm loungies on, climbing under my blankets, and reading a book is the ultimate win.
