Imagine you just woke up, pushed the curtains away and stared out of your window…. into a chilly, damp and rainy day. Or actually, think about a lazy weekend when you feel like you are glued to the bed and nothing could make you get up and be productive. Let me get this straight; I am sure everyone has those days from time to time when you just don´t have the energy to function properly and be a normal human being, whatever the reason may be. Trust me, I have those more than I should. And that is why I developed a perfect lazy person guide to a cosy day without having to step out of the flat  and encounter other human beings when you feel like any kind of interaction is out of the question.
