Beautiful video Abby,I always look forward to your videos,there is always something new to learn...and the choice in music is to die for,I need your play list....😊
I find you to be an exceptionally brave and generous person who has great compassion and love in your heart. Thank you for sharing your journey. Peace be with you.🩷🕊🌎
Abby, thank you for sharing Chloe with us. It helped heal my heart to see her after I lost my own Boston a few years ago. You have let us in on your journey and so know on the other side of the camera there are people in this with you and sending up prayers to God for your comfort and strength.
I liked the Green glasses . The retreat sounds fun , U know when its the right time for Chloe , its hard when they get old the hard decision is do u take her back to France . Will be thinking of u both . 💕🐾
Hi Abby, Thanks for the scenic walk. I love when people show the area where they live. During Covid there was a Facebook page called ‘windows of the world’. People would take a picture from a window in their home. I loved it! Got to see real examples of places around the world. I think I learned more about the world than I ever learned elsewhere. I will never see these places but it’s so interesting. I’ll be thinking of Chloe on Tuesday❤. Take care❤❤❤
As a dog lover I want to share with you what a vet once told me…”You know your dog better than anyone.” He went on to explain that he can diagnose and tell me if there are problems, but my dog will tell me when it is time to let go. As long as they see happy and are eating, wagging tails, it is probably not time. When you look into their eyes you will know .
32:07 You are so right, If you try and make them hang on to long and they are wanting to go, it just makes them suffer more and you regret it later on. I had a sweet little pom with heart failure and she started not liking me giving her the medicine and it became an awful struggle for both of us. I think she was trying to tell me to let her go.😢
@@lovesomeone7285 thank you. I have had many dogs during my nearly 3/4 of a century of life. I have adored them all. Each loss has left its mark, but that is small compared to the joy they left. I will always be grateful to the veterinarian who gave me that advice.
Yes, totally agree with you, Abby! People don't realize the amount of energy it takes to be creative! Although, it can be healing, cathartic, and enjoyable, it can be totally draining
I loved your original glasses! Those Specs were Your Insignia! I wanted ask what brand they were? I hope you wear them again. You could get other colors too! Why do people uuugggsss…it’s simply not our bizzwax! So I will apologize Abbey. YOU ARE BEAUTIFULLY FINE JUST AS YOU ARE! They fit your look and vibe and face shape! The style is in these days! You do You! Those who wear glasses sometimes have to push them up. They have to be tightened, no biggie. Who cares…again it’s all part of you. I found your channel soon after you had purchased the Château, maybe earlier. I enjoy how laid-back and natural you are. There are many other Vlogs, but your story captivated me! I wish and dream of having another place to escape to, especially if it were in Europe. I love that you are from Seattle🤍 Such a gorgeous place to venture, despite modern chaos. Let’s definitely SPARKLE! Thank You for sharing all the ups and…I cant type the “other” word cuz somehow you are so patient and humble in trying moments! 🪄💖 💫
Can you do a retreat for people who have never traveled to Europe, and don’t feel confident enough to deal with language barriers, hotels, cities and the unknown? You seem so kind and your place seems so safe, peaceful and healing, even if one does nothing!
THANK YOU for being a blood donor! I donate blood, too, and am a volunteer for the Red Cross. We appreciate all blood donors....you give the gift of life! 👍
👋🏻🧑🦳😄🎄Oh I’m glad you mentioned your glasses. Before this vlog, I’ve meant to say to you that I have liked how your eye glasses have looked on your face.
Great interview with Lavanya. Your energy and warmth is reflected in your chateau and retreats, I would come to all your retreats if I could afford it!
How wonderful to meet a friend of yours and for sharing future retreats. Love your art by the way. Nice walk. Did you take the dog or did the dog take you? 😂
I don’t cook and I am not an artist. However, I absolutely am creative and a self sufficient woman like you. I definitely want to come to a retreat so bad!!!!
Thanks for giving blood for those of us who can't - I have no veins and those I do have roll away, so frustrating for the phlebotomists. As for Chloe, my heart aches for you. The more we love them, the more it hurts. Big hugs.
…all that, and to just relax and hangout in a chateau with an English-speaking host, rather than an Airbnb or hotel. Seasons greetings to you Abby from a fan in Richmond, BC, Canada.
I enjoyed this episode and the interview about Sparkle week. Is it possible to add a link to your website in the description of your videos? I'm having to hunt for it. ❤
Abby, maybe you can ghostwrite Chloe’s book. I think she had quite an interesting life but what did she think of it. I use to watch Selmar’s blogs. There’s a series that I think of as his travel series. I especially liked the ones where he travelled to different cities in the Netherlands with his dog in the camper van or riding in a basket on his bike. And would wonder what the dog made of all this. I sometimes wonder the same about Chloe.
Abby I love your taste in music. I enjoy your choices for all of your videos. Is it Abby or Abbey? Anyhoo ignore the negative comments. Only focus on the good and keep your spirits up.
Have you considered recycled materials to create art and useful household items such as used paper and rags to make home made paper, cloth scraps to make quilts, rugs, baskets, or vines for baskets, wreaths, ect. Just a thought.
When your endeavor really takes off, how about sponsoring a guest or two people that can’t afford to pay for it to expose them to international life.. something to think about. Not sure about the sparkle week.
If you have nothing nice to say, shut up. What a pathetic person you must be to leave such a hurtful comment. Don’t like the video, don’t watch. Get a life.
That definition of creativity….❤

I went to give blood at our local town, only to be told I was too old, they gave me a wine bottle opener, as a thank you.
@@maureensayersaberdeenquinnie was that through the Red Cross?
@ no it was the Spanish health system

Abby good morning from Australia always so nice to see you pop up.
Abby you are a good person and I send you love and good wishes. ❤

Washington is nothing but trails and I love it there!
Sounds all good! 🥰

The thin green ones you had on made your eyes pop…I hope you got those…

Can you do a retreat for people who don’t have a creative bone in our bodies but just want to eat good food and drink wine?😂
She has one called Abbys Retreat . Check it out .
@@Lilypad5493 I will, thank you!

Great you are a blood donor! Nice walk with doggie. Nice interview with Lavanya.
Beautiful German shepherd leading you along 😂😊

Such a beautiful area your home is in... How is Chloe doing 🐕💖🙏
Oooo Abby that market looks so delish 😜
Good luck with Chloe. 💕

Have you considered recycled materials to create art and useful household items such as used paper and rags to make home made paper, cloth scraps to make quilts, rugs, baskets, or vines for baskets, wreaths, ect. Just a thought.
This would be for me if only!😢
I had to make a decision with my dog three days before Christmas as she was in declining health sad decision made from the heart.
The green frames looked best.
Always' follow the instincts of the dog 🐶 He sinced something out there could have been a large snake . When the dog wants to move. Time to move. 🤦🏾😯
Sensed…
The dog was really reacting and wanted out if there. You may never know why, always trust their instincts. Your retreat sounds wonderful.
When your endeavor really takes off, how about sponsoring a guest or two people that can’t afford to pay for it to expose them to international life.. something to think about. Not sure about the sparkle week.
Yee Haa, Howdy Doody Pardnor, Hello.
I hope you chose anything other than that last thick pair you were trying on! Cartoonish!
Oy Vey!
You’re not the boss of her. So rude
Please get your glasses fitted properly. It annoys me you pushing up your glasses all the time.
In other words, “fix your glasses for me, not for you!” 😂😂😂
😳🙄🤐🫣🤫
Are you kidding me? How rude!
Ok karen
If you have nothing nice to say, shut up. What a pathetic person you must be to leave such a hurtful comment. Don’t like the video, don’t watch. Get a life.
