What is something you do at work to make your day a little nicer for yourself? (beehaw.org)

I'll answer first: One thing that I do that helps my work environment feel a little nicer is I have a stuffed Totoro on my desk, a nice-smelling candle, and a few tasty snacks in my drawer. I also very quietly play video game music or ambience to remind myself of my hobbies that I like ๐Ÿ˜Š

I just started this job, but I'm trying to make myself feel a bit more cozy, since the work can feel a bit heavy sometimes.

Curious what others do to make their environment a little nicer. :)

When I inherited my office I also inherited a big underdesk file cabinet. Whoever had it before me must have really loved tape, as it had tons of the stuff, practically glued on by age. It was a long process but I have since fully cleaned it, 100% tape and dust free. It's a small thing but it makes me happy.
