Happy holidays thank you for sharing this and showing me I can still have a good time without family.love your channel ❤❤❤ so inspiring for me 🎉just the kind of mug I like….a big one lol😂😂😂
Looks like a perfect day lovely lady. Fresh air and sunshine and a flask..my idea of heaven. I love cleethorpes too its local to us too x Happy Christmas to you xx
Happy New Year. I have followed you from the early days, I find it difficult to comment on your main blog, so doing it on here. I loved the idea of the gifts from the farmers market. I usually give chocolates to my bin men, same men each year, but gave a box of biscuits this year. I would love to see what your presents were, that you showed Xmas Eve. Regarding falls, I too, only take one item a time up or down stairs. If I haven’t got my shopping trolley, I take a walking stick, not because I need it, but because where I live, the pavements are so bad, with raised slaps out, or broken. My daughter took me round locally to see all the Xmas lights on people’s houses.x❤🎉
You are really an inspiration. I can feel lonely sometime when I am doing things by myself. I wish I was like you, you seem to enjoy life with or without company. Happy 2025 Ilona.
I listen to a lot of youtube, do watercolour painting, listen to ai on notebooklm discussions, It is only for one day and if you plan it well it can be very good. people can cause a lot of stress and drama
Happy New Year, looking forward to your chats in the next year. I loved walking but due to Fibromyalgia I struggle to walk far now but I make the most of good days. Give your fur babies big snuggles from me. I was alone by choice Christmas day and enjoyed every minute. Toodle pip. Xxx
same here. I was alone through choice, if it is well planned it can be very good. I don't miss the dysfunctional drama of a narcissistic household. I am better of out of it.
Happy Christmas Ilona.... what a lovely way to spend the day... I have been on my own for years and everyone seems to think it's awful ( I quite like it ) and I get lots of invitations which I appreciate... then you have the dilemna... if I go to one person the others say why didn't you come to mine etc so I'm frightened to offend... people are so kind.... but I am grateful I have choices when so many don't. I love the mug.. I' m pushing 40 too... much like yourself, from the wrong side !.. I'm with you over the Christmas thing.. all this fuss and stress ( for some people ) just for a day... If I saw someone talking to their car... I think I would walk the other way !! All the very best to you.... enjoying Christmas and New Year, your own way x
I totally agree solo christmas can be great by choice, they don't need to be awful at all. I don't miss the hassle, stress, boring conversations, drama and being bossed about. I think solo christmas should trend. Hearing people get murdered on christmas day, well that won't happen to me
Nice to have videos over the Christmas period. I had Christmas alone through choice (avoids stress, family arguments, boring entertainment etc). I had food I liked to make, and easy to go. Mainly toasties. I love them. Some chocs but I think I won't do that next year, too sickly. I did some water colour painting, watched some slow tv on youtube watching walks in Finland, looking forward to the fruit shrubs I bought from Christmas gifts, raspberry, gooseberry, blackcurrants. As a gardener looking forward to spring and planning for that in the New Year. One primrose flowered on Christmas day, it was so mild. I got a risciprocating saw for christmas to chop some overgrown trees down which saves money on a tree surgeon and gives my garden more light. can't wait to use it .I got my friend an ironing board, as his broke down, some usb hand warmers, they are great, go check them out,cycling gloves. so a good christmas for useful things and gifts and no people although I did go for a walk on boxing day in the park and spoke to a lone dog walker who was house sitting. I feel more recharged having christmas alone doing what I want, eating what I want that being absolutel drained by being with family who are dysfunctional
If I were in my home town on Christmas Day, I would not have be able to walk a foot without bumping into another person ! It is a seaside town on the Southcoast, Now I am in a much better place with quiet beaches. However,I had a lovely day. My son in law collected me at 4.30 for dinner and present opening at 6. I spent a lot of the day reading and revelling in the quiet. Today it is very cold but I have been for a nice long walk . It will be good to start a new year with lots of projects and plans, and of course the Spring won't be long arriving with the garden coming alive. Travel hopefully, that is my motto for life. Thank you for your videos, please keep them coming
Not lucky. It's easy to be led along the path of life, to follow others, and allow them to make decisions for you. It's much harder to choose your own path and take responsibility for your own life, and accept that you might make mistakes. Nothing is forever, if you want to change, you can do.
I had a Christmas Day outing to Lyme Regis and a walk along the seafront with the dog. Misty and foggy but quite warm. Glad to hear you had a good day too. :) Best Wishes.
"What's she doing talking to herself"?? 😂 🤣 No....they don't know your friends are watching Ilona. How nice to be 'all wrapped up' at the beach on Christmas day. Was that a turkey sandwich?? Nice one Ilona, you always cheer me up. Merry Christmas and may all your new year plans be a huge success. 🥰🏠🎄💫
I love living by the sea also but not been out much. It wasn’t that cold when we went to our churches midnight service. We plan going out a bit tomorrow as I’m not working due to work switching my shifts x Need to get some Xmas cards in the sale. We stayed in for the most part just relaxing me and my hubby x merry Christmas and happy new year xx
Happy new year to you Ilona ! I wish you a lot of wonderful walks and discoveries, and laughs with your friends, and joy in nature. You inspire me à lot, thank you. I can t wait to discover your new 2025 aventures 😊, see you soon then 😊😊😊😊
I've enjoyed your chat, whilst mending my little girls jarmie bottoms with a little knitted patch on the knee. What a lovely day to be at the seaside. I hope you have a wonderful new year and lots more car camping adventures. ♡ xx
hope u had a nice day yeasterday just me and my hubby and i spend it on my ownand he does his we met up for dinner and went each others way today iv cleaned my brother and fam comming sat so thats going to be nice kids grown up now 17 lottie and sam 20 but still loves comming to mine xx best wishes kathy xxx
Happy Christmas bless you ❤ can i just ask a question You don’t have to answer ? Do you spend a lot of time by yourself? Because i do and struggle so badly being happy in my own company. Family live hundreds of miles away and friends disappeared one by one .
I spend most of my time on my own. I have always lived alone apart from one year in my early twenties, when I lived with a boyfriend. That was a disaster so I never bothered again. I don't understand why you say you are happy in your own company, then you say you struggle. I struggle with nothing because I accept that I am responsible for every decision I make. I can change things if I so wish. I am happier now that I have cast aside all pressures to conform.
@@vanessaharling1957 You don't have my outlook on life because you are not me. Don't wish you are someone else. You are you. Start by looking at your face in the mirror, and saying out loud to yourself, fuck everyone else, I am me, and I like me.
There are some photo's on the blog of my day out at Cleethorpes.

Was just thinking of you as I walked the hills earlier today great to be out and about in the lovely fresh air.

I am blessed to live at the sea side. We spent Christmas day at A & E.
I talk to myself all the time. I kind of got in the habit when we were wearing masks. Am I crazy?
No, I like to think out loud..
I do too😊

Merry Christmas, pushing 40, we wish!
I’d take my chihuahua if I went to the seaside. Highly recommended company for us independent ladies!
Can you see me mother.xx🐝🐝
