Welcome to my Tuesday 💞
Warm hugs with a brew.
Breakfast.
Dressed.
I woke up the kids for their on-line learning.
We were going for a early walk to get the newspaper.
Good job I put on the thermal knickers!
It was nice to enjoy a hot coffee when we got back.
As hubby is working from home, he forgot to bring mouse from work, so he borrowed mine.
I had a quick look in the newspaper.

Back to the car.
The car parking barriers were up,
So I didn't have pay \o/

Need something to warm me up!
Wearing no bra in this cold weather is no joke!
Time for a bit of CNN...
