You live in a beautiful area! As a 62 year old widow living alone for the first time (after 41 years of marriage), I would love it if you could do a video about your typical weekend daily routine and whether you cook for one or eat out. I have two dogs that help me to not feel so alone, but it’s really hard not having my best friend here to talk and joke with. We did everything together and life alone feels so alien to me.
Hang in there.. I became a widow too in 2006. Make it point to go out w a friend once a week at least. Don’t isolate and create a routine for yourself including maybe a new thing you might like to try..Praying for you
@@pamcornelius9122 absolutely my friend! They always see if you wanna friend be a friend. Loneliness is real. I make myself go out at least once a week with a friend even if I don’t know that person very well, I asked them to go out to supper early on a Friday night or Saturday night. I never let myself sit at home all the time… You’d be amazed how many people there are out there that are lonely, and would be doing better if they had someone they could talk to. That was the toughest part of my journey was the loneliness but I’m better now. Be brave. Reach out and find a new normal. Maybe get involved with a Bible study or if you go to a house of worship anything like that is helpful . Or get a good book from the bookstore and go sit in a coffee shop or Starbucks and read or any other quaint little place so you’re out around people. Make a schedule if you need to in your house of what you’re going to do so you don’t have that overwhelming sense of nothingness in your life. Having my dog in my life really helps me to. I will say that!-OK enough of my chatter :-)
I have a throwback tv night where I watch network tv with commercials. There are 2 shows I really like and I race with the commercials to empty the inside cans and get the trashcan rolled out to the curb. By the time the shows are done, trash is gone and it’s time to get ready for bed. It’s a pleasant weekly routine that breaks up the week nights. The library has local music groups and speakers. The audience is full of introverts who will be good company. Once or twice a month will help give some structure to your life. I’m not a very ‘good’ Christian, but church and coffee hour pull me out of my isolation and connect me with others who are working to feed the poor, address gun violence, promote mental health care, etc. Obviously you’re going to have to choose wisely and within your own value system with this suggestion. Pickle ball on Saturday afternoons? Cheap night at the theater? Walking groups in the area? My point is that it’s hard for introverts, especially where you’ve been out of practice for 41years, to constantly be reaching out and getting things planned. Use some of these activities that are already happening and start showing up for them regularly. It will feel not great at first. Stick with it for awhile before you decide it’s not for you. In time, you’ll figure out how much is enough and which are most enjoyable. Did you go to a grief support group? Some are great. Some not so much. It’s worth finding out if there’s a good one near you. Trust your instincts and your ability to find your way. All the best to you.
@@LF-Loud Excellent advice, thank you. I definitely need to start a routine of some kind. I did attend a couple of Grief Share meetings, but there was one woman who monopolized the meetings by talking most of the time and the leaders weren’t good at getting things back on track. I stopped going and tried a couple of different therapists but I felt like that wasn’t helping either. My doctor advised me to take antidepressants but they scare me. I mostly stay in bed in the afternoons, which I know is bad. I have zero motivation. I was going to a church that I liked but being around people I don’t know is so stressful. I am going to try to take your advice and start an enjoyable routine, even if it’s only one thing a week. I know I need to make myself start doing something that involves being around people even if it’s just going back to church. Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful response. 💝
You have given me a lot of inspiration for my channel I watch you😁 and I love to hear the water in the back of your home I love that sound ❤️ that was cool l love the Nature walk. ✨ New subscriber ✨
Hello from Arizona! Your videos popped up on my feed recently and this one is outstanding. Very beautiful and peaceful…from the scenery to the sweet dog, to the calming music. Good job.
Oh Jenn. All I can say is that place and your video are ENCHANTING! The music was making me think of long ago native Americans. It was almost as if I expected to see them. Perfect video. I think Skye knew the rabbit was there and was pointing it to you. Some hunting dogs do that. I think she was waiting to see what you wanted her to do. I liked it when she tinkled then turned as if to say, “Did you see that, Mom?” She is such a good and beautiful fur baby. Thanks Jenn. This video just took my breath away.
I want to live there. You live in such a beautiful area. I swear I would be outside all the time I would never be in the house and I am 76 years old, living single for the first time in my life.
Beautiful walk thru nature! Your dog is adorable, always checking back to see you! ❤ I love the sounds of the forest! Thank you for sharing! Enjoy your Sunday!🙂
Good morning Jen… that sound of the owls is so beautiful… I Love where you live too 🙂how wonderful to live in such a magical place , those tree roots are amazing… thanks for sharing… I woke up to -9 here in Winnipeg this morning… love your videos … Take care…
What a utopia! I love how your face just lit up when the owl started hooting. And the bright yellow of the skunk cabbage - just beautiful. Your editing showed it all so well. I like how you carried the camera at times, then would show yourself in the video for a bit. And the music was a perfect fit.
Aww I live in the suburbs in the UK we hear owls at the back of our house every night at the moment! Love hearing them but my teenage daughter says they get on her nerves 😂
What a beautiful area. I haven't been to Vancouver in many many years. But also one of my other favorites is Victoria island. So much to see and do :-). I live in the Pacific NW. We have many of the same plants :-).
It's absolutely beautiful where you live ❤ I am going to love your channel. I am binge watching your channel on my TV but commenting from my phone. The footage on my phone is spectacular! 😍
My brother has a full size Bernedoodle (not mini ). Great dogs. Good to have that bear bell on. Owls reside in my neighborhood as we are surrounded by fir trees. Nice to see you out on a walk
@@rhythmoflove2 I'm not sure why you're aiming this at me. I'm not the one in this video with a dog that doesn't have a leash on and the same to the person who liked your post. This is NOT my dog.
I've never heard that term before. We're on a riverbank in Australia and we hear mopokes/tawny frog mouths (not exactly an owl, they're a Nightjar), sea eagles (they're huge!) and we see swamp wallabies, platypus, King Parrots, Goannas, crested cockatoos. Its magic. Thanks for sharing.
Where you live is really beautiful! I live in a busy suburb of West Ft. Lauderdale , Florida but my second floor condo is on a lake with some wildlife & lots of birds.
Hello again. Your vlog was a real treat. Thank you so much for showing us your environment. I wonder, have you trained your dog not to stray too far thus enabling her to be off the lead/ leash? Owls were great, they make different sounds in the UK.
Cool, I am subscribed to your channel and just found out by this video that you are on Vancouver Island. I live in Duncan and wondered where abouts on the island you are?
This was nice. I wondered if you had someone filming you or if you had to set up the camera and backtrack. The music was eerie and made me think of an afterlife of sorrow and loneliness. That's why we have pets. 🐕🦺
I loved the dawn visitors....much nicer to wake up to than a rooster crowing - ha ha. Again a wonderful walk. It looks like you have many path options to loop around through. Too funny how your fur-baby (Skye?) didn't see or smell the rabbit! I love 'sharing' your walks with you, but sadly it doesn't benefit me physically as it does you!
Nice video. So pretty and peaceful but you are much braver than I, especially with that bear warning. I am trying to teach myself that it is ok to go on walks in the park alone or even with my dog but my dog is a chicken. I don't know if he would protect me. He is a little guy (25lbs)and hides behind me! 😀
Pam here…I am enamoured by all the lovely walking trails by your? Do you have those right in your neighborhood? Or do you have to drive to some of them??
❤ this video! What a lovely place to walk - did you have to climb all those stairs again or was it a circle walk? New subscriber from the Gulf Islands. I frequently hear your owl’s cousin early in the morning on our property.
Yes, it's walking distance to the forest from my house, and the bears here only hibernate lightly since it doesn't get really cold. They are starting to wake up and get active, my neighbour caught one on her fence camera last week, but I haven't seen one yet.
Not sure as a single woman, living alone that I would be posting to YT the layout of my house and advertising that my motion sensor lights are broken..... and Have certain specific features in my back yard...... but each to her own. Maybe I’m more “Quirky “ than most.
The bears don't like meeting people any more than we like meeting them. If they hear you coming, they move away. If they're surprised, they run. Bears don't stalk and attack people or dogs, they're just trying to live their lives. We can coexist and be safe.
I mistook them for the mourning doves (we usually have 4 pairs) and came up on an adolescent, did the classic 180 with that stare, then flew away into the sun with whatever he'd killed. Big fluffy legs. And left me several feathers, from different parts of his body. What an experience! I yelled "look" as he flew away to several neighbours on the park, but they missed him. Quite impressive in the flesh, my first sighting and in my late 50s. Beautiful, thank you for this! They have several different calls.
I totally understand the freedom you want to give your dog regarding not leashing. What about people who are either afraid of dogs or just don’t want to be approached by one? You mentioned that your dog has poor eyesight which would make sense to put a leash on her.
@@silverandsolo”incredibly friendly”, people that are not dog people don’t give a 💩 about a friendly dogs, they don’t want to be approached by dogs PERIOD! Think of it this way, everybody don’t like kids/babies or to be around them and it’s perfectly ok even though some parents get offended. I think it’s selfish and careless to walk an unleashed dog. Get a longer leash!

Awesome, absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing ❤
Lovely to hear the great horned owls. I have barred owls in my neighborhood here in Nova Scotia.
So relaxing and hypnotic. Thank you. I enjoyed the FAQ session very much.

I'm working from home and have this playing in the background - it's so relaxing ❤ great channel xxx

What a lovely walk - thanks for sharing and doing the steps for us all! LOL.
Beautiful BC, miss you and see you soon!
I'm 64 and I have never heard owls. I also love dogs and kitties. Both are man's best friends. Lovely surroundings. 😅
What a beautiful trail!

Hi Jen, is the forest nearby your house, or do you have to drive there? Are the bears still in hybernation? Greetings from the Netherlands.
Yes, it's walking distance to the forest from my house, and the bears here only hibernate lightly since it doesn't get really cold. They are starting to wake up and get active, my neighbour caught one on her fence camera last week, but I haven't seen one yet.

Hi, new sub. What makes you not afraid to walk these trails knowing you’re in bear territory?
The bears don't like meeting people any more than we like meeting them. If they hear you coming, they move away. If they're surprised, they run. Bears don't stalk and attack people or dogs, they're just trying to live their lives. We can coexist and be safe.

I mistook them for the mourning doves (we usually have 4 pairs) and came up on an adolescent, did the classic 180 with that stare, then flew away into the sun with whatever he'd killed.

What is this bell ringing in the background...? Is it a bell on the dog's collar?
I don't think it's good for the dog's hearing...
He needs to hear his surrounding, not the bell...
Anyhow, it's not good for the video...
It's a bear bell. Essential around here. It doesn't hurt her hearing. Thanks for dropping by!
