It was pointed out to me that there has been some comments on another blog about my video in the bath. It is a blog that I don't take much notice of, there is nothing of interest to me there. So of course I had to have a look to see what people are saying about me. Sue has made it quite clear in the past that we are not on the same wavelength, so I don't know why she reads my blog.
The comments are a source of amusement for me. You could say they made me laugh out loud. 😂😝😉I won't copy and paste them here, you can read them for yourself.
One comment said I am trying to get people to read my blog. Nope, you got that wrong. I don't care if people don't read my blog.
Blogging in the bath sounds silly to me. Yep, it is silly. I am a fun loving person and I can laugh at myself.
Bath blogging, how terribly bizarre. True, it was meant to be.
Bath blogging is no different from telling the world on your main vlog that you are starting another vlog on your hobby and support us because we need the money. I think you are getting mixed up with Frugal Queen. She has started a quilting channel. Pay attention. I never ask for money.
It was all very discrete, no nudity, nothing wrong with it really. Just a change from the norm. I'm sure it was tongue in cheek. Correct, it was just for fun.
The reply to this. Yes yes yes, of course you would say that. Nothing wrong with it and discrete? More like, 'look at me look at me' My response would be, no thanks mother.
Here's a question for all of your readers, and some of my readers, if you don't like what I write about on my blog, why do you criticize and moan about me on other peoples blogs. Why are you so bitchy?
You don't want to see me in the bath, so how about a photo of me in my bikini. Taken 11 years ago, and I am still the same size now. Nice figure, fit and healthy.
What I meant was bath blogging appears to be about self promotion. I never said you ere asking for money.

DeleteTo me bath blogging is no different from telling the world on your main vlog that you are starting another vlog on your hobby and support us because we need the money!
So you referenced Frugal Queen, and linked it to me. Two entirely different scenarios. Their video is about self promotion. My video was a fun thing to do. These kind of comments are happening a lot. The original narrative is twisted to mean something completely different. One person in particular does it all the time. Never a day goes by when they pick apart someone else's blog, and use that to turn a conversation around to inject their own particular narrative. Devious plans have no boundaries. Everyone is fair game.
DeleteWelllllll…. I read the other blog post. I like she called you “well known”. Let’s not stir the pot, you saw what saw. I actually giggled during the vlog. Very funny.
ReplyDeleteKeeping walking your walk Mother!!! 😂😂 We are here with you!!
While walking the tightrope of a very mixed up crazy world, I feel it helps to keep things in perspective. We don't have to live under a shroud of doom and gloom. Once we have parcelled everything up into a tight bundle and stored it at the back of our minds then is the time to break out into good old fashioned titter. Or even a belly laugh.
DeleteWhen I saw your vlog of you chatting in the bath I immediately thought this is just Ilona having a bit of fun today.we all need a giggle sometimes it's real life and you were well covered.You look great Ilona fit healthy and very much still living life good to see.love Jo dorsetx
ReplyDeleteThat's all it was. Spur of the moment thing. Take the camera into the bathroom, make up a bit of a chit chat, see what it ends up like. I could have easily deleted it, but then thought, no, let's put it out there and give people a laugh.
DeletePerhaps she reads your blog precisely because you aren’t in the same wavelength!
ReplyDeleteThat could be the case. So why make a negative comment about it. Why not just ignore it and move on.
DeleteIt’s human nature to comment on things. Just as you have commented in what she said as opposed to ignoring it and moving on.
DeleteTrue. But this is my blog. I am allowed to comment here. I don't go to someone else's blog and make negative comments about them. Oh, I have been tempted to in the past. It is possible to read, then ignore, and move on.
DeleteYou were 66? In that bikini picture? Wow,.. most women don’t look that good even in their 20s anymore, all huge fatty blobs,… keep being yourself,.. you have the same physique as my 62 year old friend who plays tennis most every day,.. she is very athletic just like you,… I love reading your blog because you are so happy and positive,.. and it lifts me,… from Norma in Stafford.
ReplyDeleteLooking good, Ilona. Honestly, just keep doing what you do, it is impossible to please everyone and why should you anyway? Some people are like a dog with an old bone, they cannot let go. Have a great weekend, don't let it get you down. ~ EssDee
ReplyDeleteI’m a bit late with my comment but I’m on holiday so I missed this. I thought your vlog in the bath was fun and enjoyable. I’m surprised but not surprised at the reaction from some quarters. Blogland can be an unpleasant place and very bitchy. I remember your bikini photo - you have a great figure achieved through eating the right foods and outdoor exercise.
ReplyDeleteDid you see my full frontal nude photo of me posing in front of a mirror? I almost put that one into this post. That would have sent them spiralling into real panic attack. Ha ha.
DeleteYes I remember that one too - I would have posted it just to wind them up.
DeleteLooking marvelous and posting the photo should add fuel to their fire. Let them. Loved the book The let them theory. Just continue being you. We, your loyal followers ( 6 yrs for me) - are with you all the way. So glad you don't conform but do what suits your personality
ReplyDeleteIf people realised that they have their own life to live, that they have choices then follow them up, they wouldn't be bothered about what other people are doing. Be a leader, not a follower.
DeleteKeep it all up! You are the talk of the town, aka blogtown, and you didn't even mean to be lol. Oh well, look at it this way, you are giving someone else a break by them talking of you. lol. You look amazing and you're a great person, do not ever let someone's opinion of you matter. It's theirs and we can see they don't have good taste if they don't think you're amazing like the rest of us do!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Tittle tattle that's all it is. They have nothing better to do. A recent post on UK Litter picking page brought 750 likes. I'm pleased with that.
