My pup was having the same problems. Vet couldn't find anything wrong! I started making her dog food myself from GOOD human food and she's doing better than ever now! Find homemade dog food recipes on TH-cam!
I would contact thousand trails corporate office and tell them about what happened and you didn’t like being threatened with termination when you had reservations for that spot!!
I'm heartbroken for you Amber. Don't even know what to say, I'm just so sorry for your loss, what a terrible time you've been having, Lily too, stay strong. You are an inspiration.
My condolences Amber, on your loss. It's been a rough rough 2 years with this Covid. I'm sorry you've been having a rough time. It's true though, everything always seems to come at once. It definitely tests the resilience for sure. Good to hear Lily is feeling better. I pray you will find some peace and comfort in the days ahead
I just started watching you about 2 weeks ago and I have to tell ya, I LUV LUV LUV you sooooo much. I am married and we have bought our camper and are about to be on the road full time and I’m a little nervous of the unknown, but I’m ready to jump in feet first. You inspire me so much girl. I to have a weight problem at my OWN hand and just plain laziness but I’m starting to do better. We want to hike and see the world so I have to get in shape. I have a mass on my brain that is causing problems with my memory so we decided to make memories instead of a mortgage. We have lost 18 people that we loved so so much to COVID, some family most friends so we feel your pain. I have 2 cats also and am worried about how they will handle things when we go. Don’t let people get to you honey. You should know that I think you are so so so beautiful and you have the most infectious smile. May God bless you and Lilly in your travels and who knows, maybe we’ll run into each other one day 💜. Can’t wait to leave Florida and this heat and get on the road 🥰🥰🥰 ty.
Oh man what a week you had! That was a lot, I don't blame you for all the tears I would have been a mess! I'm sorry for your loss and very happy your dog is feeling better! I'm glad to see you know what's best for you. When to take time out and look after you! Things will always get better, life is full of ups and downs and all we can control is how we deal with them. I hope the issue with the inverter is an easy fix. Take care and enjoy that beautiful life you have created for yourself! ☺️
Counseling and medication helps me immensely Amber. It is such a blessing to have a therapist and don’t discount the meds either because they keep me calm. I’ve been through difficult times in my life that I ignored for years and got to the point that the stress and depression nearly pushed me to take my own life. Seek help, it’s an amazing tool to help you hang on because I now know how precious life truly is. I was raised to believe that mental health help was a big no-no because no one should ever “find out” about speaking to a counselor. Stigma on the family I guess or at least some sort of character flaw in the eyes of my relatives. I look at life through different, fresh eyes now. I’m so sorry for the loss of your relative May they RIP. I also hope Miss Lilly is doing much better she’s such a sweetie pie! Sending you a big hug my friend ❤️ feel better, ask for help and life will get much better.
Dear amber, your sadness and pain over multiple heartaches was palpable... as was your joy in Lilly's improvement, a beautiful hike and the care and comfort of those amazing veterinarian heroes. Your choice of music was spot on. Keep leaning into the positive and know that that pendulum will swing you into the right place for you. With deepest condolences to you and your family. PS I have a 13.5 yr old furry girl who is such an important part of my world...hugging her close!
When things are rough, crying is the best answer. It gets it out of your body and helps bring back endorphin production. I'm sure Lily sensed your anxiety too. But wants to be close as possible to also comfort you even when she was sick.You are not alone. Sending love your way.
Oh Amber, I’m so so sorry for your loss and for having such a rough time. Keep remembering, this too shall pass. I feel your pain as I have had COVID recently and have been under some major stress and anxiety. It’s not a great place to be. I hope lily is much better by now. It made me cry when she got out of the vet, she is such a sweetheart. Your love for her is obviously unmeasurable! ❤️💕 Do what is best for you now as you work through this time. You and lily will be in my thoughts.
Boy that is a lot to handle. Your amazing. Thank you for your honesty and being the authentic you. I'm so glad that Lili is doing better. I know that as you take a deep breath and refocus on you and your emotional health you will be able to get your calmness again.
Amber when you cry I cry 😭 I’m so sorry you are having a bad week. You got a lot going on, TTs were being bullies but let it all go Amber. It’s all going to work out. You got this, you still have your home, power, Lilly, good food and friends. It’s just a bad week girl. If you need me I’m here, DM me, you are so loved by all of us. Keep Walking in The Light, You Shine Bright ✨✨✨ ♥️♥️♥️
As always thanks for sharing and so very sorry for your loss. The situation with TT is unacceptable and hopefully someone will contact you to at least apologize. Happy that Lily is feeling better and you found cooler temps. I'm loving the East Coast of Canada and the cooler temps, we had the most amazing weather up until today and there is a bad storm going over northern Nova Scotia.
I'm so proud of you, great job at standing your ground and not letting the bullies win. Thank you for advocating for us van-dwellers. I have a 2019 Hymer, hope to see you on the road someday.
Amber, I have been following you since 2017. You are a strong & courageous women. In observing your last few days, I see that leaving your close friends and their home was hard for you. To then be tossed into obstacles with your van and family concerns has been really tough. I don't know you personally of course, but you have shared so much, and all I see through it all is your resilience, kindness and strength. This entire community you have brought together is supportive and here for you. Thank you for your openness & vulnerability. This time period could be a bigger transition that is bubbling up for you. Take good self-care, stay connected to nature, stay close to deep friendships and of course your sweet Lilly. Please know that you are heard, supported and appreciated.
What a relief that your Lily girl is doing better. I’m sorry for the rough patch and pray for your continued strength. The calming music and water views were beautiful.
Oh gosh…hard days like that are tough under “regular” circumstances but to be so far from home and friends/family, I’m sure it feels utterly overwhelming. You need a hot cup of tea, some comfort food, and a giant long hug….I hope you get those soon.Happy to hear Lilly is on the mend. So dearly sorry to hear about the loss of your family member. Stay 💪🏻
I am so sorry for your loss. I just lost my grandmother earlier this month to COVID and have an aunt who is recovering. You are not alone in what you are going through.
Hugs to you Amber... What a rough week you have had.... Blessings to you and your loved ones... So very Sorry for you loss. Thank goodness Lilly is doing better.. ⚘⚘
Amber so sorry for the loss of your family member. So glad Lily is doing better. My senior cat is extremely ill right now and I understand how it feels when our pets are ill. I also appreciate your honesty about anxiety and how you are dealing with it right now. It will help me to deal with mine as I start my full time journey. So thankful you are open about the challenges you have faced and how you have tackled them. Thank you and take care.
You are the perfect example of "always be kind" because you don't know what someone is going through. Since the campground was unkind, I am glad you told us so that we can dish out some kindness to you. I wish you peace.
I’m so sorry for your loss, dear one. 🌸. Thankful Lily is doing better. It’s so hard when our fur babies are sick. You are so strong. An inspiration. Thank you
I’m sorry that you’ve had such a rough week. I have said a prayer for your family’s complete healing. Thank you for sharing your 1,000 Trails incident. I have a feeling that one of the campground “regulars” with a class A wanted that spot…. I’ve heard too many 1,000 Trail stories to ever buy a membership of theirs.
Amber, I’m so sorry for your loss and the tough situation you’ve been in this week. You’re so strong and independent, but everyone needs support and self care on occasion. I’m so glad Lily is feeling better. That relieves some of the stress. You always share the good and the bad, and I appreciate that…all the realities. Continue to be strong. You’ve got this girl! ~Judy~
Hi Amber, Very glad to hear that Lily is better. Remember that nothing stays the same, no day a repeat of the ones before. Wishing you more sunshine and less sadness. Cheers and safe travels.
Oh Amber I am so sorry to hear about your family and Lily. Speaking as someone who does take antidepressants, they do help. But I understand your hesitation to start taking them. Try to inhale the happiness that you felt when you mentioned the temps being around 68 and how nice it felt and keep focusing on those good positive moments. They will start to expand. You are such a strong woman, and an inspiration to me. Sending you a virtual hug.
Zoloff really does help you handle anxiety. It is like you don't realize you are on meds until 2nd or 3rd day. You still have the challenges, but they become sorted so you don't feel so overwhelmed. The "what haves" or "what may"...it settles that so you can rest.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my healthy 79 year old dad to Covid in March 2020, so I know exactly how you're feeling. But, you need to take care of yourself. I'm finally starting to do that 19 months later. xo
I’m sorry about your family member. Four of my family members had COVID and it was very serious for three of them. I know how worried you were. I know there are days (and weeks) like this. I’ve had them too. Crying does help a little. Then you cowgirl up and move ahead. Glad the dog is fine. Love the music you pick. Hope things get better soon.
Some troubleshooting advice for your inverter, if you're not already getting it from someone else: Unplug everything from the inverter and then see if the breaker will stay on. If your inverter is hardwired, then turn-off all breakers that are tied to it to see if the tripped breaker will stay on. If that works, then the inverter may be fine. From there, plug in one item at a time (or energize one breaker at a time) and see if a particular appliance or circuit branch is causing your problem. It could be an appliance, an outlet, or perhaps even your AC. If it's not your inverter, I'm inclined to think it's something you don't use all the time, but stays plugged in or connected. A ground fault in your AC would certainly do it, I think. Hopefully, the fix or discovery is that easy. Good Luck! Oh, sorry to hear about your family member, but glad to see Lily is feeling better. Take Care!
Aww! Poor Lily, get better soon sweet thing Amber it's good that you can cry, you need an outlet. Sunny days are around the corner, it's just been a lot all at once I'm glad you stood up for yourself to the campground staff. They have their nerve! You are a strong & lovely young woman. This too will pass, chin up.
Amber, I am sorry to see you having a hard week and especially with Lilly being sick. So glad it was only a minor tummy issue. Your courage on all your videos is so inspiring. Best wishes to you!
I'm so sorry to hear all that you are going through Amber. I know the feeling well. When it rains it pours. You are a very strong person. It's ok to cry. I pray that everything gets better for you.
Oh Amber, I'm so sorry you're having a very bad week. Lily and you looked better by the end of the video so that's an improvement. I'm so sorry about your family members with COVID and the loss of one of them. Hospitals on the West Coast are close to capacity. It's a minute to minute issue. My daughter had appendicitis Thursday and went to the ER, had surgery Friday evening, and went home Saturday about 1 pm. She was VERY thankful they were able to help her even though she stayed in a holding area. The nurses were all travel nurses and were gave he excellent care. After you catch your breath and still want to follow-up with TT's perhaps you can get the corporate office on the phone to advise them of the situation you experienced. May be best for you to just let it go to maintain a level of calm. Perhaps there's someplace closer than SF familiar with inverters that can help you? Jackery to the rescue for now. You poor thing. I hope a subscriber near by contacts you to offer a hand. Thoughts, prayers, and love for you, Lily, and your family members. September has been a month for the record book for so many people. I'm so glad you shared what's going on. There's strength in numbers for sure, at least support.
Amber, so sorry to hear about all your stress, struggles and issues of late . Sending you a big hug and positive energy and prayers that things will be better soon. You've got this girl. So happy that Lily is dong better. I like how you continue to stay focused on Gratitude, even with everything going on. Be well.
Oh Amber, i am so sorry too hear your bad news and sorry that you were having such a difficult time. So pleased that your little darling girl Lilly is getting better. Chin up Amber and tomorrow is another day where i am sure it will be brighter for you and Lilly. Stay strong. Much love too you both. Xxxxxx
I'm so sorry things have been so stressful. Praying for better times. Happy to see the improvement in Lillie's health. Blessings to you and your family in this time of grief.
Sorry for your troubles. I lost my sister in Nov due to Covid. I had my Hymer worked on by Beaver Motors in Beaver Springs, PA. They know EcoTreks. Good luck.
Amber I am so sorry for your loss. And what a time you have had this past week. I am glad for Lily and you that’s she’s doing better! I pray for you that things start going your way again. Enough is a enough,right? Good luck and safe travels for you both!
Hang in there love, we all have frustrating, rough days. If we didn’t have rough days, we wouldn’t understand how amazing the good days are!! So glad your baby girl is ok. I can’t wait to get my van ready and head out with my little girl too.
I am so sorry you have had such a tough week and for your loss. I just got back from a kayak ride to try to get over my own trying time. Like you, I also find nature can help heal. I hope you are feeling better!
Have you reset ALL of your GFI outlets? If one is tripped, main breaker won’t reset. Glad Lilly is doing better. Hope you reported that Thousand Fails park to corporate.
Stan Augustyniewicz 😊 Yup that was one of the first things I did. Thank you. yes, I did turn them into corporate. Got a call back from the regional manager who says she's taking care of it.
@@storychasing have you tried to replace the gfci breaker itself? cant tell completely from the video but it doesnt seem like its actually clicking when setting it back to on and is usually an indicator that the breaker itself has gone bad. Typically it should at least click back into place (on) and then trip again if there truly is a fault
@@whippleslap That GFCI breaker won’t reset, but the AC is on a different breaker and is also not functioning, so there’s a little more happening here.
So happy that Lily is doing better! Yay! She is so so cute and such a joy to watch and so are you - a joy to watch and you are cute too in a soul sister friend kind of way. Anyway, hang in there. I am finding out more and more every day how challenging mobile life can be in my truck camper - things going wrong and stuff breaking and leaking! My camper is in the repair shop for the second time in a month for leaks and my truck has to stay with it too! So, I am homeless in a rent a car and staying at a friend's house (although constant electricity and hot baths are amazing). The freedom you get from a traveling life is so so so worth it! You are an inspiration! Thank you for making yourself vulnerable and opening up to us. Sorry that was very long. You are my forever hero if you read up to this point. Amber you are the best!
Just now watching this. So sorry for the loss of your family member. So glad Lily is doing better. We sure do love our girls. My pupper is about the same age & it's such a worry when they're not doing well. Praying for you & Lily. Wishing you good health, happiness & prosperity in this new year. Thx for sharing 💥.
I am so very sorry for all you are going thru!!! Sending prayers & condolences 🙏....... sending healing to you & Lily...... take care of yourself!!! Breathe, Meditate, and know that you are strong & will get thru it all 🐾❤
My heat breaks for you ,prayers for the family and your loss . Prayers for your family and healing . Lord be with her and put your healing touch around her and her family !
No words. I’m so sorry for your pain. Tears mean you are human and you care. I understand you pain with Lilly. I have two fur babies as well (kitties). Better times are in the future. Hang in there and you vanlife virtual family is here for you. Hugs.
Amber I hope things have gotten better since this last video how's Lily? I'm in New Brunswick Canada your not that far away if you stay around long enough you will see the most beautiful vibrant colors from the trees, bright yellows, bright orange and bright reds! I know how you love trees!
It is nice that you share that Van life is not always a bed of roses. Most people make it like it is wonderful full of fun fun fun…. You are in my prayers. I am a new subscriber.
I'm sorry everything seems to be crashing down at once, and so sorry for your family loss. That has to be very painful for everyone. I echo what others have said about therapy and/or medication. Only you will know if it's time to take that step, but like you said, it's there if you need it. We are all sending you lots of hugs!
Sorry for loss and all your stress. My older dog had a similar issue when we moved into a new house. He got really stressed and had the same problem. We finally got some meds by the vet. Probably the same stuff as Lily. He finally got better. Some times feeding them pumpkin as well. It gives them. Health fiber and it is not stressing on the digestive system. Hope things turn around soon ❤️
I’m sorry to hear about your family loss. May you have many happy memories to wrap your heart. ❤️🩹 Lily looked like she was feeling better. Get well both of you.
Hello Amber, 🌺 I’m new to your Chanel. I love how real you are. It’s not always wine & roses, but we can always count on the sun shining again! Bless you & yours. So sad to see Lily feeling sick. Hope the sky clears up for you soon. Blessings. Alicia
Thank God you stood your ground with Thousand Trails. I love that and so proud of you! GREAT JOB GIRL! Dont let others push you around. I wish I did that more. I am too nice and it stresses me out so I have learned a lot from you, thanks!
You HAVE been having a rough week!! I'm so sorry about the loss of your family member. And 1000 Trails. And Lilly ( I'm glad she's better!). And your inverter. Praying for all those issues to be completely resolved!
Sorry you're having to go through such a rough patch right now, but just remember 'this too shall pass'. Sorry to hear about all the COVID that hit your family, sending them best wishes and thoughts that they all recover quickly. And Lily being sick, that's the worst! At least it sounds like you found a good hospital to take her too and she seems to be on the mend. NOW, it's time for you to take a load off and RELAX a little. You've been through a lot so go slow 'n easy for a few days, take some time to get it all together again and you're going to be fine! It made me feel so sad when I could tell you'd been crying, but sometimes a good cry or two is sort of cleansing. It can make me feel better sometimes. Take care of you and your little furbaby. Just be glad you're on the 'other end' of it all now, things WILL get better! :)
So , so sorry for your loss. I am dealing with my husband in the hospital with Covid pneumonia currently. He has been in for a week already & today I felt like he turned a corner. My sincerest sympathy for your loss & prayers for the others dealing with it. It is so different for everyone who gets it. Myself, my daughter and her family all got it & everyone of us had it completely different. My husband was last to get it & got the worst of it. He is slim, healthy and strong, but this took him down fast. Praising the Lord that he is getting better. I am sorry you had such a bad week, glad Lilly is better too. Hang in there Amber, you are going to be alright!!💕
Thank you for sharing the good, the bad & the ugly. So sorry to hear about your family member. Through all this, you still do an amazing video to share with your subscribers. It can only get better from here! Glad Lilly is feeling better. 😁 🌳 🏞 🌞
I'm joining the others who are sending you condolences. Covid has been so cruel to so many families. I'm thankful Lilly is feeling better. While there have been so many issues for you this week, she was the one that caused me to bite my nails. You are so strong....I suspect this has been a week which has tested your strength. I saw the dock in Maine and I hope you did some yoga there....you need it. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Your honesty is refreshing. I am a therapist and I can PROMISE you that you are FAR from alone with how you are feeling. This country is experiencing a mental health crisis. Please take care of yourself and I am so sorry for your loss. One day at a time.
Erin Lee Thank you very much! 😊🙏 I am taking care of myself and trying to stay health and keep my stress low. I really appreciate you comment and I'm sure you have your hands full with everything from this last year. Keep well.
Big hug your way… I am so sorry about your family member. Hopefully next week will be better. You made me cry seeing you cry.. I am sending you positivity 😘
My heart hurts for you Amber. So very sorry for your loss and for all the stresses placed upon you. Sending hugs and love your way. I understand where you are at this time in your life. I’ve been there before. When considering a possible home base as you mentioned in a previous video…explore Sequim, WA ….near where you once lived in Seattle. Take care and know we all appreciate the beauty you share with us! ❤️
I am so sorry to hear all your troubles. My condolences for your loss, it’s a horrible thing. We just had a loss in my family also . I’m leaving tomorrow for Vermont and Maine if it’s not too cold ( I live in FL) My van is ready to go. Maybe our paths will cross% 🙏for you and Lilly.💕

Legalpuppy 😊 that's so sweet of you. Thank you.
I’m so sorry for your loss, dear one. 🌸. Thankful Lily is doing better. It’s so hard when our fur babies are sick. You are so strong. An inspiration. Thank you
I’m sorry that you’ve had such a rough week. I have said a prayer for your family’s complete healing.
Thank you for sharing your 1,000 Trails incident. I have a feeling that one of the campground “regulars” with a class A wanted that spot….
I’ve heard too many 1,000 Trail stories to ever buy a membership of theirs.
So sorry to hear of your struggles and the loss of a family member. Sending you good vibes to get through it all.
Amber, I’m so sorry for your loss and the tough situation you’ve been in this week. You’re so strong and independent, but everyone needs support and self care on occasion. I’m so glad Lily is feeling better. That relieves some of the stress. You always share the good and the bad, and I appreciate that…all the realities. Continue to be strong. You’ve got this girl! ~Judy~
Miles To Go Thank you very much! 😊🙏
Hi Amber,
Very glad to hear that Lily is better.
Remember that nothing stays the same, no day a repeat of the ones before. Wishing you more sunshine and less sadness. Cheers and safe travels.
I'm feeling you sister! I have been stuck in this bed for a week now. Sorry for your loss, praying for you and your family.
Oh Amber I am so sorry to hear about your family and Lily. Speaking as someone who does take antidepressants, they do help. But I understand your hesitation to start taking them.
Try to inhale the happiness that you felt when you mentioned the temps being around 68 and how nice it felt and keep focusing on those good positive moments. They will start to expand.
You are such a strong woman, and an inspiration to me. Sending you a virtual hug.
Zoloff really does help you handle anxiety. It is like you don't realize you are on meds until 2nd or 3rd day. You still have the challenges, but they become sorted so you don't feel so overwhelmed. The "what haves" or "what may"...it settles that so you can rest.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my healthy 79 year old dad to Covid in March 2020, so I know exactly how you're feeling. But, you need to take care of yourself. I'm finally starting to do that 19 months later. xo
I’m sorry about your family member. Four of my family members had COVID and it was very serious for three of them. I know how worried you were. I know there are days (and weeks) like this. I’ve had them too. Crying does help a little. Then you cowgirl up and move ahead. Glad the dog is fine. Love the music you pick. Hope things get better soon.
Some troubleshooting advice for your inverter, if you're not already getting it from someone else: Unplug everything from the inverter and then see if the breaker will stay on. If your inverter is hardwired, then turn-off all breakers that are tied to it to see if the tripped breaker will stay on. If that works, then the inverter may be fine. From there, plug in one item at a time (or energize one breaker at a time) and see if a particular appliance or circuit branch is causing your problem. It could be an appliance, an outlet, or perhaps even your AC. If it's not your inverter, I'm inclined to think it's something you don't use all the time, but stays plugged in or connected. A ground fault in your AC would certainly do it, I think. Hopefully, the fix or discovery is that easy. Good Luck! Oh, sorry to hear about your family member, but glad to see Lily is feeling better. Take Care!
Aww! Poor Lily, get better soon sweet thing
Amber it's good that you can cry, you need an outlet. Sunny days are around the corner, it's just been a lot all at once
I'm glad you stood up for yourself to the campground staff. They have their nerve! You are a strong & lovely young woman. This too will pass, chin up.
Amber, I am sorry to see you having a hard week and especially with Lilly being sick. So glad it was only a minor tummy issue. Your courage on all your videos is so inspiring. Best wishes to you!
I'm so sorry to hear all that you are going through Amber. I know the feeling well. When it rains it pours. You are a very strong person. It's ok to cry. I pray that everything gets better for you.
Just saw this today, you made me cry! Hope you’re doing better now!!
Oh Amber, I'm so sorry you're having a very bad week. Lily and you looked better by the end of the video so that's an improvement. I'm so sorry about your family members with COVID and the loss of one of them. Hospitals on the West Coast are close to capacity. It's a minute to minute issue. My daughter had appendicitis Thursday and went to the ER, had surgery Friday evening, and went home Saturday about 1 pm. She was VERY thankful they were able to help her even though she stayed in a holding area. The nurses were all travel nurses and were gave he excellent care. After you catch your breath and still want to follow-up with TT's perhaps you can get the corporate office on the phone to advise them of the situation you experienced. May be best for you to just let it go to maintain a level of calm. Perhaps there's someplace closer than SF familiar with inverters that can help you? Jackery to the rescue for now. You poor thing. I hope a subscriber near by contacts you to offer a hand. Thoughts, prayers, and love for you, Lily, and your family members. September has been a month for the record book for so many people. I'm so glad you shared what's going on. There's strength in numbers for sure, at least support.
I am so sad to hear of your loss. May our Lord be with you and bring you peace.
Big hug. I was crying with you. What a crappy week. I am so sorry for your loss .
Amber, so sorry to hear about all your stress, struggles and issues of late . Sending you a big hug and positive energy and prayers that things will be better soon. You've got this girl. So happy that Lily is dong better. I like how you continue to stay focused on Gratitude, even with everything going on.
Be well.
BBNW18.COM Thank you very much! 😊🙏
I’m so sorry you had such a bad week, and I pray that things get a lot better in the days to come.
Oh Amber, i am so sorry too hear your bad news and sorry that you were having such a difficult time. So pleased that your little darling girl Lilly is getting better. Chin up Amber and tomorrow is another day where i am sure it will be brighter for you and Lilly. Stay strong. Much love too you both. Xxxxxx
I'm so sorry things have been so stressful. Praying for better times. Happy to see the improvement in Lillie's health. Blessings to you and your family in this time of grief.
Sorry for your troubles. I lost my sister in Nov due to Covid. I had my Hymer worked on by Beaver Motors in Beaver Springs, PA. They know EcoTreks. Good luck.
Allyson Olsen Thank you very much! 😊🙏 That's good to know. I might just give them a call.
Amber I am so sorry for your loss. And what a time you have had this past week. I am glad for Lily and you that’s she’s doing better! I pray for you that things start going your way again. Enough is a enough,right? Good luck and safe travels for you both!
D D Thank you very much! 😊🙏
Hugs sweetie. Praying the others get better. Sorry fir your loss. Keep your faith. God bless
Hang in there love, we all have frustrating, rough days. If we didn’t have rough days, we wouldn’t understand how amazing the good days are!!
So glad your baby girl is ok. I can’t wait to get my van ready and head out with my little girl too.
So sorry for your loss. Happy that your sweetie is feeling better!!
I am so sorry you have had such a tough week and for your loss. I just got back from a kayak ride to try to get over my own trying time. Like you, I also find nature can help heal. I hope you are feeling better!
Have you reset ALL of your GFI outlets? If one is tripped, main breaker won’t reset. Glad Lilly is doing better. Hope you reported that Thousand Fails park to corporate.
Stan Augustyniewicz 😊 Yup that was one of the first things I did. Thank you. yes, I did turn them into corporate. Got a call back from the regional manager who says she's taking care of it.
@@storychasing have you tried to replace the gfci breaker itself? cant tell completely from the video but it doesnt seem like its actually clicking when setting it back to on and is usually an indicator that the breaker itself has gone bad. Typically it should at least click back into place (on) and then trip again if there truly is a fault
@@whippleslap That GFCI breaker won’t reset, but the AC is on a different breaker and is also not functioning, so there’s a little more happening here.
So happy that Lily is doing better! Yay! She is so so cute and such a joy to watch and so are you - a joy to watch and you are cute too in a soul sister friend kind of way. Anyway, hang in there. I am finding out more and more every day how challenging mobile life can be in my truck camper - things going wrong and stuff breaking and leaking! My camper is in the repair shop for the second time in a month for leaks and my truck has to stay with it too! So, I am homeless in a rent a car and staying at a friend's house (although constant electricity and hot baths are amazing). The freedom you get from a traveling life is so so so worth it! You are an inspiration! Thank you for making yourself vulnerable and opening up to us. Sorry that was very long. You are my forever hero if you read up to this point. Amber you are the best!
Just now watching this. So sorry for the loss of your family member. So glad Lily is doing better. We sure do love our girls. My pupper is about the same age & it's such a worry when they're not doing well. Praying for you & Lily. Wishing you good health, happiness & prosperity in this new year. Thx for sharing 💥.
I am so very sorry for all you are going thru!!! Sending prayers & condolences 🙏....... sending healing to you & Lily...... take care of yourself!!! Breathe, Meditate, and know that you are strong & will get thru it all 🐾❤
I'm sorry you are going through so much right now. Hang in there. You are a loving person and are much loved. We appreciate you🥰🙏🏽💕
My heat breaks for you ,prayers for the family and your loss . Prayers for your family and healing . Lord be with her and put your healing touch around her and her family !
No words. I’m so sorry for your pain. Tears mean you are human and you care. I understand you pain with Lilly. I have two fur babies as well (kitties). Better times are in the future. Hang in there and you vanlife virtual family is here for you. Hugs.
The Professor and Her Passport Thank you very much! 😊🙏
Amber I hope things have gotten better since this last video how's Lily? I'm in New Brunswick Canada your not that far away if you stay around long enough you will see the most beautiful vibrant colors from the trees, bright yellows, bright orange and bright reds! I know how you love trees!
Condolences to your family. And praying things go smoother for you and Lilly feels better soon. Our pets are life to us. 💝
I am so sorry for your loss. I am happy Lily is doing better. Good luck, better days are coming. Take care of you.
It is nice that you share that Van life is not always a bed of roses. Most people make it like it is wonderful full of fun fun fun…. You are in my prayers. I am a new subscriber.
I'm sorry everything seems to be crashing down at once, and so sorry for your family loss. That has to be very painful for everyone. I echo what others have said about therapy and/or medication. Only you will know if it's time to take that step, but like you said, it's there if you need it. We are all sending you lots of hugs!
So sorry for your loss. It always all happens at once. I hope things continue to go well for you. Best wishes from the UK.
Sorry for loss and all your stress. My older dog had a similar issue when we moved into a new house. He got really stressed and had the same problem. We finally got some meds by the vet. Probably the same stuff as Lily. He finally got better. Some times feeding them pumpkin as well. It gives them. Health fiber and it is not stressing on the digestive system. Hope things turn around soon ❤️
I'm glad Lily is OK. My heart goes out to you and your family for your loss. Praying for you🙏
Much respect..you are one tough cookie! Love your videos.
Thank you 😊
So sorry for the loss of your family member. Sending you a very tight virtual hug.
So many stressful things at once is so hard! I admire your strength and intelligence and your resilience.
I’m sorry to hear about your family loss. May you have many happy memories to wrap your heart. ❤️🩹
Lily looked like she was feeling better. Get well both of you.
Gal,,,, I’m here with you.
My brother died from covid last week,,,, love coming to you.

Hello Amber, 🌺 I’m new to your Chanel. I love how real you are. It’s not always wine & roses, but we can always count on the sun shining again! Bless you & yours. So sad to see Lily feeling sick. Hope the sky clears up for you soon. Blessings. Alicia
Glad Millie is feeling better. So sorry for your loss. Been a tough week. Hope next week is better for you. 🤗

Glad that Lily is ok. I'm so sorry for the loss of your family member. Praying for you and your family. ❤🙏

Sorry for your loss...I hope things get better for you....glad sweet Lily is feeling better...take care....
Thanks so much
Sorry you're having to go through such a rough patch right now, but just remember 'this too shall pass'. Sorry to hear about all the COVID that hit your family, sending them best wishes and thoughts that they all recover quickly. And Lily being sick, that's the worst! At least it sounds like you found a good hospital to take her too and she seems to be on the mend. NOW, it's time for you to take a load off and RELAX a little. You've been through a lot so go slow 'n easy for a few days, take some time to get it all together again and you're going to be fine! It made me feel so sad when I could tell you'd been crying, but sometimes a good cry or two is sort of cleansing. It can make me feel better sometimes. Take care of you and your little furbaby. Just be glad you're on the 'other end' of it all now, things WILL get better! :)
Amber, I am so so sorry for your loss. Praying for comfort and peace for you and your family. Glad Lilly is getting better.
Amber, I am so sorry for your loss. Pray and relax everything will work out. 🙏
Hi Amber. I’m so sorry for your loss.💐Sending you love & light.😊❤️✨ I hope your baby girl gets well soon.
So , so sorry for your loss. I am dealing with my husband in the hospital with Covid pneumonia currently. He has been in for a week already & today I felt like he turned a corner. My sincerest sympathy for your loss & prayers for the others dealing with it. It is so different for everyone who gets it. Myself, my daughter and her family all got it & everyone of us had it completely different. My husband was last to get it & got the worst of it. He is slim, healthy and strong, but this took him down fast. Praising the Lord that he is getting better. I am sorry you had such a bad week, glad Lilly is better too. Hang in there Amber, you are going to be alright!!💕
sherry svesnik I hope he recovers quickly. I'm sorry you're having to deal with this too. :(
Thank you for sharing the good, the bad & the ugly. So sorry to hear about your family member. Through all this, you still do an amazing video to share with your subscribers. It can only get better from here! Glad Lilly is feeling better.
😁 🌳 🏞 🌞
Prayers foe lilly your baby ,and prayers for your family with this awful covid, may God put his healing hands around you and them all!
I'm joining the others who are sending you condolences. Covid has been so cruel to so many families. I'm thankful Lilly is feeling better. While there have been so many issues for you this week, she was the one that caused me to bite my nails. You are so strong....I suspect this has been a week which has tested your strength. I saw the dock in Maine and I hope you did some yoga there....you need it. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Your honesty is refreshing. I am a therapist and I can PROMISE you that you are FAR from alone with how you are feeling. This country is experiencing a mental health crisis. Please take care of yourself and I am so sorry for your loss. One day at a time.
Erin Lee Thank you very much! 😊🙏 I am taking care of myself and trying to stay health and keep my stress low. I really appreciate you comment and I'm sure you have your hands full with everything from this last year. Keep well.
I'm so sorry, love♡♡♡ I'm sending you caring hugs and love.
So sorry you're going thru this. Prayers are sent up.
Thank you Michelle 🙏🏻
Sending you, Lily, your family lots of love!
Big hug your way… I am so sorry about your family member. Hopefully next week will be better. You made me cry seeing you cry.. I am sending you positivity 😘
Sorry for your loss, it’s been a tough couple of years. So glad that Lily is Ok.
My heart hurts for you Amber. So very sorry for your loss and for all the stresses placed upon you. Sending hugs and love your way. I understand where you are at this time in your life. I’ve been there before. When considering a possible home base as you mentioned in a previous video…explore Sequim, WA ….near where you once lived in Seattle. Take care and know we all appreciate the beauty you share with us! ❤️
I am so sorry to hear all your troubles. My condolences for your loss, it’s a horrible thing. We just had a loss in my family also . I’m leaving tomorrow for Vermont and Maine if it’s not too cold ( I live in FL) My van is ready to go. Maybe our paths will cross% 🙏for you and Lilly.💕
