Back to walking on my home ground. It's nice to go away and explore new places. It's also nice to come home and walk familiar tracks and paths. Look for changes, new crops in the fields. The grass is knee high, beware of ticks and check bare legs. Take a drink if it hot.

Never give the negative folk a thought life’s too short😊

Stay just as you are You give us so much pleasure to so many of us

[@janeallen7679]

What comes out of your mouth is never shite Ilona. You have interesting thoughts which often contain a lot of sense. I like your sense of humour and that you are always upbeat and happy and living your life just as you want to. You don’t follow the crowd and I for one admire you and always enjoy your videos

[@marianne8280]

You are a joy to listen to. Never give up being you.

[@shirefinds6585]

Do not give them a second thought You are right the bin is the best place for negative comments Do not give up on your Chanel

[@cate5272]

Enjoy your day Ilona, and stay being true to you. The keyboard warriors or trolls, as I like to call them, need to grow up and do something productive with their lives. Stay safe ❤

[@ruthie2222]

We love you the way you are Ilona 🙌

[@Mary-gn5xo]

Love your chats! And no ads. I’m the same age and you inspire me to keep fit and walk, eat healthily and keep busy. Enjoy all your photos of places You visit. 😊

[@victoriavirgo]

"You are not making a TV programme" This was just what I needed to hear. I have just started sitting in front of a camera and am fumbling my way through this making videos process. Scary but fun. Sorry to hear about the trolls you got on your blog. Glad you can block out that negativity. 😀

[@theresawebb8064]

Hi illona, your utube Kentucky friend here again, you cheering up my midnight here in the south🖒❤

[@maureenhunter11]

Ilona, your videos are pure joy and always bring smiles and commonsense… take care .

[@mariarooney6262]

I’m glad to see your viewership growing. I know it’s not necessarily for the money, which makes it attractive for me because you’re just being your truthful self. Happy to hear your back to feeling well again. Have a good week. ❤️

[@mimi1o8]

Trolls are all over . What to do? Ignore them, we are with you and appreciate you sharing your thoughts in these crazy times 👍

[@leighwiseman8389]

Hi Ilona, so lovely to hear from you. Ignore the trolls, I follow a couple of people and they block the horrible people. You don't have to put up with that on your site. Watched your other video and yes the amount of places where you cannot use cash, even mcdonald's where I live now. Take care ilona and keep doing what you do. Much love to you xxx

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

I would have to be starving before I set foot in McDonalds. Even then I might take a chance with just French Fries.

[@leighwiseman8389]

I'm sorry you are having such negative people on your blog. I really enjoy your talks, and walks, and crafts. Keep on, I'll be here. Have a good day! I need to walk more, so you are an inspiration in that. I've followed a couple of your food saving plans as well. Thank you.

[@dandelionwishes9842]

[@happydodson6920]

An online visit with you, even totally one-sided, brightens my day.

[@christinehowells5845]

Well said lliona love your channel xx

[@Rose_1212]

Thanks Ilona for being wonderful you. And again... thanks for no adverts. I've tuned into your blog (always.. so good) re conference & speakers - so informative & eye opening. Sorry to hear about so called 'keyboard warriors' they really are 'keyboard cowards!' Bye for now. Regards. Rose 🌸

[@voyageinthepast8752]

Hello Ilona, i understand that as soon as 1 does something 1 is critized. This is human nature. We appreciate what you have to say and Who you are, whatever our number. Please keep in mind that we love you 🥰 ! Try to forget the bad ones. They are so uncomfortable with themselves that they need to harm others. They have the problem, not you. Have a nice day lovely Lady !!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@rhondacontino8250]

Good morning Ilona A nice walk is refreshing Hope all is well over there, just crazy still here in the states!! 🙄 Be well Just touching base ❤️🌴

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

Still crazy here, Rhonda. I keep thinking any minute now the ship is going to sink, but at the moment it's on it's side. Lies upon more lies are coming out every day. Hang on in there. ilona

[@karenknight3906]

Hi,I love your video's, best wishes from Leicestershire.

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

Hello Karen. You have a fantastic MP in Andrew Bridgen. Lucky you. My MP is awful. ilona

[@carolwillingham7605]

Hi. I hope you have a great day. Looks like beautiful weather there. Enjoy your walk. You’ve inspired me to walk too!

[@Ellena0820]

Hi, was up early this morning for 3 mile walk with hubby. Temperatures here are almost in the 90s F, before noon.

[@Jerseywonder56]

I Love your vlogs and I always agree with what you say. Keep on keeping on, youre awesome. Best way to deal with trolls is to ignore and block. 😘😘

[@kidzngrandkidz840]

It’s such a shame that people can’t accept other people’s views without being nasty, deleting the negative comments is the best thing to do.

[@JP-gl2xp]

Hi keep at it you make me laugh 😀And I say this over and over again I love animals sometimes more than humans 🤣 So keep smiling life is what you make it and I think you have got it just right. 👍

[@firequeen7872]

I don’t know about it needing new ideas, I think it’s just authentic humans people are hungry to hear from. Authenticity is not easy to find and is instantly recognisable. You have it, and people love it, because you’re the real deal. You just ignore the jealous hateful ones and carry on! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇳🇿💐

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

Thank you. xxx

[@Billiard-cp1my]

I'd love to hear your unfiltered opinions Ilona. Even if I don't agree with someone, I still like to hear their point of view. X

[@janeelizabeth6711]

Glad you enjoyed your time away. Keep being you.

[@sheilafisher7255]

Do take care it’s so hot today, try to drink lots if you can. Look forward to the new pics on your bog.

[@julienolan5022]

Never let the negative nasties affect you llona they have nothing else in their tiny little world rise above them & pray they find good things to do.

[@yasmindawoojee6831]

I like learning from you - very fit and healthy - really good way to save - I find the power bill too high.

[@christinenightingale2528]

Well said, Ilona. Ignore the nasties. Don't rise to it. It'll only encourage em! 😊 I'm one of them that likes listening to your shyte 😂

[@beaulieuc8910]

I prefer the ordinary non fancy showy blogs particularly ones that aren't interested in making money

[@carolinecoffey5404]

Hello hope your ok thanks for sharing love your chats xx

[@Byerfilms]

Girl, you have the misery loves company crowd (they’ll try to bring you down in the dumps where they are), the bitter Betty’s - nasty little bunch who think life is for nitpicking and proving everything you say is wrong and the rest of us who enjoy your love of life (heaven forbid you are happy LOL), love of simplicity, the country, walking and a good cup of coffee with a chat. It’s sad people can’t get out of their own way. We’re here for you Ilona even though our encouraging voices are sometimes drowned out by hatred and anger. March on and push those little sad sacks to the wayside. Been reading your blog for many years and felt like giving you a little nudge in a positive direction. You’re a sweet sister to many. Hugs! Mama Deb of Byerfilms.

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

You describe the situation perfectly. Thank you. Some people couldn't live without their daily dose of doom and gloom bitchiness. They won't derail me. 😛

[@rowan7658]

Good move, don’t give these nasty people any mind, they are insignificant.

[@fairplaynowTim]

Sounds like you had a few trolls after the BWC as I did. I’ve even got one or two YT vids made, calling me controlled opposition from it apparently lol. Just got to ignore it like you say. All the best, Tim

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

The trolls are always there. Sad people with nothing better to do. ilona

[@bonnielaarman1878]

Good for you deleting the nasty comments. You don't need them on your mind for one second. I enjoy your videos very much! From Michigan...chilly with rain..but we needed the rain.😊

[@joannedibben2352]

Nice to see you Ilona the nuisance people should get themselves out for a very long walk why they would want to be nasty I don't know life is tricky enough enjoy your walk about showing those legs lol I wish I had lovley slim legs like you I need to do far more walking🌈🌈 Jo dorsetx

[@bernadettenightingale4495]

They are sad people. Dont change a thing.

[@Heidi123]

Don't worry all KZbinrs and bloggers get nasty comments and trolls. They often just do the rounds popping at everyone. Just ignore them.

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

There are some sad people about.

[@cherylparkinson6136]

Yeah I agree Ilona ! Keyboard warriors !! All they do is put other people down & be nasty . I have no time for them either ! Delete , delete , block Jog on 😂

[@dandelionwishes9842]

i had people say horrible things to me for commenting on a subscription before 😮i couldn't believe how heartless some people can be,good you keep deleting and block 🥰
