Been feeling a bit low lately but morning tea is definitely a highlight to my day. onlyfans.com/morning_tea

If it's going to be 60-degrees in February then I'm going to be running outside. I'm exhausted, but it was just to be outside again.

Going international for morning tea today. Czech tea, British mug, and Aussie underwear.

English Rose tea to start my morning.

Dinner and TV tonight. Need to relax.

It's a cold start to the day for morning tea. The warmth is definitely needed.

Snowing and absolutely freezing here. So in longer underwear and reading by the fire this afternoon. Not a bad way to spend the day.

Been a tough week and a rough day. A little reading in bed to wind it all down.

New series premiere. Engage. 🖖

Yesterday afternoon my sweet girl passed away. She was just shy of 18 and had been in declining health the past few months. She had many humans that loved her and who are saddened by her loss. Rest easy, little girl. Reading time won't be the same without you cuddled up next to me. 😢

On December 30, a federal judge ordered the administration to continue funding the CFPB, blocking its attempt to starve the consumer watchdog of cash. The legal fight over the agency’s future is ongoing—and could reshape consumer protections nationwide.

A restful afternoon reading. Definitely needed as I recover from this cold that I've had.

First morning tea of 2026.

Seven years after the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, the world is being asked to forget what happens when governments decide reporters are disposable—and to turn away from what that precedent means for all of us.

Reading. Tea. And Cuddles.

Woke up smelling smoke. Quickly realized it was down the street. So now watching two soccer games and having morning tea.

Reading by the fire this evening.

Decided to try a new tea from Prague that I got earlier this year.

Settling in for the night and watching The Polar Express.

Snowing outside so think I'll do some reading by the fire.

Decorated the tree tonight and now time for a Christmas movie.

The view outside when I got up this morning. It has now switched to rain and is going away.

Morning tea and snow today. First snow of the season. Luckily it won't stick around very long.

Kerflop. Parked on the couch until bed. It has been a long day.

I need more tea. Didn't get enough sleep last night. Will need at least another pot to make it through the day.

Someone is buying up American starter homes and pricing you out. But it’s not who you’ve been told. #EconSky #Housing #PolSky #RonanFarrow

It was unseasonably warm today. So might as well do some cardio outside and then read out on the deck for a bit.
