Bad RA Day Comfort Box

I came up with an idea for myself which I'm sure is not a unique idea but I was pretty excited to think of it all the same. Bad RA days suck, I'm not just talking about stiffness, pain and fatigue where you feel like crap but you muddle through, I'm talking RA Miley Cyrus Wrecking Ball style. Where the fatigue is so bad that you feel like you are sinking in quick sand. Where the effort it takes to sit in even a reclined position feels like an Olympic event. On those days you need to be good to yourself and this is where the comfort box comes in....I'm not talking about a cute little shoe box, I'm talking a nice moving box full of stuff. Somethings I will be putting into mine

The most plush, soft, throw blanket that I can find

A T shirt that is at least 3 sizes too big

A pair of stretchy, loose lounge pants that are also a bit big (I can't not handle the constriction of clothing when I am having a bad day)

A large plush pillow to put under my knees

Some movies that I love but don't get to watch often, or perhaps a season of a TV show that I haven't seen yet and I can have a marathon

A delicious smelling candle

Perhaps a couple small edible treats


I'm sure I will think of more.  What would you put in your comfort day box?
