Woman says she has a tattoo of a bear on her ass and wants to prove it by pulling down her pants and panties... but there is no tattoo to be seen.

"He's doing his winter sleep" she says. "He's in his hole."

13077794, Making good quality loose leaf tea in a glass teapot

Can watch the leaves unfurl and see the water change colour. I love that.

Also:

Listening to uplifting music e.g. Heatwave, EWF, Isley Brothers, O'Jays, Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes. A lot of positive messages and uplift with those groups/bands.

Walking - lovely this time of year crunching through the pretty autumn leaves.

The sea - always mesmerising on a sunny day watching the sparkles on the water.

Watching the clouds - always takes me to another place.

The night sky - makes me feel connected to something bigger.
13077922, nice n/m
