My horses are announcing that Spring is just around the corner! Owning horses involves hard work, year round, but winter months are always increasingly challenging for me. I don’t love the bitter cold mornings. Instead of just feeding and watering my horses, the bitter temps often also involves breaking ice, scrubbing troughs with icy water causing chapped and freezing hands. Often in winter, chores are done in the dark and my body braces against the fierce nip of brisk air that makes leaving a warm bed exceptionally hard on the coldest mornings from January through early March. However, as I have been grooming the horses the last few days I have begun to feel and see the evidence of hairs turning loose, sticking to my hands, clothes, and face. 😆 The shedding of winter coats gives me welcomed proof that Spring is easing in, a kind reminder that warmer days are not too far away.
Fun fact: did you know horses shedding their winter coat has nothing to do with temperature changes? It’s actually the slight lengthening of daylight hours that begins the process of shedding or “slicking out” for the summer. Horses have photo receptors within their eyes that pick up on the lengthening daylight hours, which triggers the pineal gland (part of the endocrine system, a gland situated just below the brain). The pineal gland controls melatonin secretion, which increases with shorter days. Elevated melatonin levels lead to winter coat development for the cold months that follow. Right now as the pineal gland appreciates the increasing hours of sunlight, melatonin production decreases triggering our horses to start letting loose of their winter hair.
Humans are pretty amazing sometimes and it’s been discovered as horse owners that we can manipulate the growth cycle of our horses hair to keep our horses “slick” over winter months. This is done most often amongst show barns who prefer to keep their horses shiny and “show ready” year round. Horses in heavy work with a full winter coat can also be difficult to keep cool when shown at indoor venues, sheltered from winter weather, so it can be done with the show horse’s best interest in mind. The increased light also affects other hormones in our horses bodies allowing for manipulation of breeding cycles. Of course, altering any animal’s natural ability to grow an appropriate coat for the corresponding weather should never be taken lightly. If a horse’s coat is manipulated by human intervention and then they are expected to survive in the elements it becomes the human’s ethical obligation to blanket the horse accordingly to ensure they do not experience unfair disadvantages against temperature extremes.
My horses pineal glands have signaled that we have almost made it through another winter and spring is on the way! 😍☀️🌷 So cheers to all the fellow horse owners who will be comforted and annoyed with the battle against horse hair from now until shedding season ceases!
Saturday somewhere? 😆 Ever get behind and then you just can’t quite seem to catch back up?! 🙈 Maybe you complete a task, but then something else disrupts the process of officially closing it out?! Well… I made this Saturday themed “Shelly in-her-panties” video yesterday morning, but then I didn’t want to post things too close together so I decided to wait a few hours. I should have scheduled it, but I didn’t so before I knew it a few hours turned into almost 24 hours 😳 so now here we are …. BUT it is still Saturday somewhere in the world so I’ll still leave it here. 🥰😘
The video seems to feature several things associated with “s” for Saturday 😏🤭
The weeks are passing right by and @oftv has done a much better job of sharing my plank videos the past couple of weeks than I have. 🤦🏼♀️
Maybe some of you have already seen this one, but I haven’t shared it here on @onlyfans until now! 🙌🏻

Happy Thursday morning! How is your mental game? It has to be strong if you want to run a marathon. I’m only training for a half marathon for now, but I have an end goal of running a full marathon. I have been told by others who have already done what I want to do that it will take willpower and strong mental focus. I am but a mere human so my mental game can have on and off days. I am discovering if we have a struggle to deal with it can make all the difference to take a step back and look at the whole picture. Change your perspective if you aren’t happy with how you feel. We always have more to consider than we can appreciate if we are too close … back up a little and the picture suddenly looks a lot different with more options than a single enlarged segment. It doesn’t mean the segment isn’t vital to the picture just that it isn’t the only thing needing to be seen. 🥰💜
For an extra fun Thursday and in case the week is wearing you out … relax into a twisted spoon tonight. 😉
Wednesday … the middle of the work week. It’s another opportunity to make life better in some way. Another day with a chance to consciously choose understanding and love. One more day to work on training your brain to see the positive that results from negative situations. These tactics build resiliency in a world that continuously and persistently tasks humans with tough situations.
I should extend a disclaimer that this isn’t my most upbeat panty video. As a creator I try to guard my heart knowing that fans will come and go. I practice detachment tactics, but I’m human and sometimes I let my guard down so when some things have to change it does affect me. Maybe some of you like me because I share so much of the real me, but I’m only human and just because I have become a creator on @onlyfans I haven’t been dehumanized.
Something that I hope isn’t tough for anyone is to admire a woman in her panties, showcasing resiliency against a big, tough world. 🌎💜
Oh, but there is still the bonus of a position and even some smiles by the end ….
It’s probably clear by now that I love exercising, particularly by climbing and riding horses, but for those of us who enjoy fitness and challenging our body those activities often carry into other rooms in our lives (like the bedroom). 🤭 Since it does take some level of acrobatics to climb and ride it helped with demonstrating this position for Trapeze Tuesday!
I’ve also decided the panties in this video are my personal favorite cut … and they have sparkles too! ✨
I’m thinking it’s a great week to try something new …for those who choose to unlock the next 7 daily panty posts: the theme will be positions (in panties) 😍
Monday - You guys know I love 🏔️ and who doesn’t like the idea of adding a little 🪄 to their day! 🤭
🍓 Weekly Plank Challenge: Week 21, 14 Minutes 🍓
The timing on sharing my videos has gotten a little mixed up because of life, but this video should have technically been shared last week. With the fluctuating post time of videos by @oftv and my own occasional personal delays🤷🏼♀️ I had gotten almost a week behind meaning this video was “due” at the end of last week. 🙃
Without further ado… here we are at 14 minutes of planking!! For anyone who wants to tighten their core this is an exercise that will help flatten and tone your belly while strengthening your back muscles!! 🙌🏻

☀️☀️ Sunday! Despite being one of the most common days off of work this day is also a day that causes many the most anxiety since they anticipate returning to work on Monday. 😳
Be sure you don’t let your mind focus on the things that detract from the wonder of each day. Sunday deserves only positive attention as the day of ☀️ and it should come a little easier if you reflect on how the sun is 💛, which is meant to send auras of positivity, joy, and happiness.
You can just call me sunny Shelly today 😆😘 Bringing y’all rays of sunshine even on a cloudy day 😉☀️☁️💛🥰
Saturday is considered most people’s favorite day of the week! I hope everyone is having a favorite kind of day 🥰
I have been trying to keep my panty posts sexy and fun, but this one borders on staying within my bounds. At least I am keeping the bedroom talk within the bedroom 🤭😇
Do you ever take time to unplug and recharge? I do 😆 I am sure some of you notice my absence can occur without warning. Everyone has different mechanisms for coping with life and all of the sensational and loathsome aspects that accompany living. I have found (for me) that alone time in the quiet of the outdoors either on top of a mountain ⛰️ or softly sitting atop or even just amongst my horses 🐎 is necessary at times to calm my mind. My life might lack a lot of common luxuries compared to someone who doesn’t opt for a life revolving around horses. During my solitary moments I have to remind myself that what my horses give me is worth more than the finest, manicured images I sometimes try to measure against myself.
Don’t forget to check yourself back and be proud of the things you choose. If you aren’t proud, then take a moment and find the path that leads you to your place of contentment.
It’s Friday! I hope everyone is looking forward to a weekend of fun and relaxation 🙌🏻
This video was right after I got out of bed following a late night of more painting! 🖼️ 🖌️ It showcases the panties I am hiding underneath my clothes right now. 🤭
Roscoe is always having a little fun with his background noises. Sometimes his reactions to my statements really make me think he understands everything I say! 🤷🏼♀️😆
If you were missing my daily panty post for the last week, then this is for you! Or maybe you just want to see little Opal…. Either way, here we are again. 😉🥰🦮
The video is kind of long, but you get to see my painting develop and listen to some random ramblings and thoughts of mine. 😆
😍 Weekly Plank Challenge: Week 20, 13.5 Minutes 😍
Week 2️⃣0️⃣ went live on my @oftv channel last Friday, but I am just getting around to sharing it here too!!
20 weeks of planking is 140 days or almost 5 months of keeping this going! I don’t think I have another 20 weeks in me, but I’m excited about digging deep to see how many I do have left 🤷🏼♀️😉
Thank you guys for building me up and for giving me a reason to keep going! 🙌🏻

Seems a little ironic that my last post was on consistency, then I disconnected for almost a week.
Even the most consistent people can need a periodic escape or some time off the grid. I spent the past weekend in the mountains with no cell service and the WiFi wouldn’t allow access to this page (I guess this page is considered a bit naughty 🤭).
I know being gone for almost a week means I have some catching up to do, but I am looking forward to getting myself back in the loop. In case you guys were wondering why I’ve been extra sloooow to respond, now you know.
I’ve always enjoyed crafty projects and I started a mountain scene paint-by-number yesterday evening. I’ve never done one with such detail, but I’m excited to see how it turns out. 💜⛰️💜
Oh, and last week’s plank made it to @oftv, but not here 🙈 I’ll try to get that up too! 😉🥰
I’m aiming for you. 😉
It’s fun being the girl next door type who is kind and friendly, but a little sexy and flirty too. 🤭
I have missed riding the last few days with the weather, but the gym is always open where weather doesn’t matter so off I go because good things don’t come easy. 💜😉💪🏻
Thursday …. I bet some of you are wondering what I’m wearing underneath today 🤭 if you’re one of those people, then the wait is over. 😍
Consistency: behaving in a similar way, usually to build success and/or positive change. People who are consistent tend to build trust, respect, and credibility from their peers. Being consistent helps those who practice consistency gain momentum towards a goal. Consistent people often make trusted leaders, loyal friends, and life-long partners.
Have y’all noticed I am trying to be consistent here on @onlyfans? 😘💜
Did you guys see the latest climbing episode on my @oftv channel? I made my project 5.12 route on top rope 🙌🏻 Next time I hope to get it on lead!
It always feels so good to complete a project and make progress with our hobbies. Having something to focus on in this crazy world can give us a sense of purpose, feelings of accomplishment, and something to share or relate to with others. I know I feel a lot better in my life when I have something to be proud of. Thanks for being an outlet and to @onlyfans for being a place where I can share some of the things that make me feel proud. 🥰🧗🏻♀️😍
https://of.tv/video/65affdf1f24c0400017255c6
Yeah …. I’m just smiling about some of the things being said in my messages 🥰 and feeling sexy knowing some of my best fans know what is (and isn’t) under my gym clothes today since they unlocked my morning post. 🤭 😇
Wednesday ….. today is the best day of the week for employees to get what they want! According to my Wednesday fact search, bosses are most receptive to their employee’s needs on Wednesday. Now I don’t have any credible source to quote so take it with a grain of salt, but if you have a trip planned or want a raise, then maybe try your luck with asking for what you want on a Wednesday 🤷🏼♀️😉🥰
And I fully expect for some of you to start referring to me as your “Boss” now, and making requests in the middle of the week. 💜😆
The ending of this video also made me make it “a touch” more than the other daily panty posts.
🤭
It’s Tuesday! And for everyone who has asked, my sweet Opal is doing very well, thank you! 🥰🦮
Today’s daily 🩲 post features navy 💙 😉
Did you know that for most people Tuesday is the most productive day of the week? I hope this isn’t too distracting 🤔 or maybe I do 🤭
Let’s make Monday the best day of the week … Monday gives us our first opportunity to prove to ourselves that we can have some control over our week. Today I’m challenging you to make today wonderful. Let’s sip our coffee a little slower, try to smile first at everyone you see, and just take note of the shapes of the clouds in the sky and the shade of blue in the sky this morning. Finding positive things and conscious actions (just a smile and view) to focus on today can start a trend for the rest of the day and week!
Sunday is one of my favorite days so it seemed fitting to wear my favorite color underneath today’s outfit. 🥰
What a gorgeous day to get outside and soak up some sunshine! The full sun shining into my room always helps my mood in the mornings and it helps to have you guys boosting my confidence with all of your compliments too.
I’m forever thankful for the love you all give me here! 😘 💜
A sporty, but girly look going on underneath the workout 🏋️♀️ clothes today. 🤭
My favorite part is when I stand on the edge of the bed frame and see my quads trying to show off a little. 🥰
Sometimes an extra look in the mirror can you help you begin to identify the changes happening that you’ve begun cultivating with your work. You’re allowed to monitor the growth along the way of reaping what you sow. 😉 It also helps you keep track of the things you are nurturing in all the right ways. 💪🏻
I hope everyone is having a great Saturday!
🫶🏻Weekly Plank Challenge: Week 19, 13 Min. 🫶🏻
It’s that time again! This week I thought I had found the perfect, quiet little room to do my weekly plank, BUT turns out they shine and polish this floor for the classes in this room?!
I do not recommend planking on a slick floor 😳
Be sure to watch to see if Week 20 is a go or not?! 🫣

I tried to catch that sunrise for my daily panty post this morning. My eyes opened to bright orange and it was gorgeous. 🌅 I jumped out of bed with no time for make-up so fresh faced Shelly is what you get. ☺️
If you missed the sunrise this morning, then hopefully seeing a little bit of mine will perk your Friday up. 😘
Did you know watching the sunrise helps balance our circadian rhythm and can improve our sleep quality? It also boosts our mood and helps us visually realize a new day has started with the promise of new opportunities. The sunrise is a visual and real display of how a beautiful light follows darkness. 💜 (although I love parts of the darkness too ⭐️)
