I've been praying for you as I had heard you were having difficulties out on the wide open sea. I hadn't watched your video until early this morning here in Amish country, Ohio, and I didn't realize you were a Christian! That explains your vibrance and love for life! You will be in my prayers from here on out and I'll be following your journey via your blog. I thank God for your courage and faith. What a testimony you've got! Keep writing that book, girl ... and I know you won't forget to give your Heavenly Father, Who is most definitely watching over you, the glory! Amen! <br /><br />Deb<br />Kidron, OHDeb Fitzwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15119362499573444314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-58571399972292658842010-06-10T23:34:53.680-07:002010-06-10T23:34:53.680-07:00Abby!! we are praying for you hope u are fine god ...Abby!! we are praying for you hope u are fine god will be with uAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-91817891920513568632010-06-10T22:54:36.710-07:002010-06-10T22:54:36.710-07:00APRES AVOIR DECOUVERT CE PETIT BOUT SUR LA PAGE WE...APRES AVOIR DECOUVERT CE PETIT BOUT SUR LA PAGE WEB DE ORANGE.NOUS RESTONS STUPEFAIT DEVANT LE DEBUT D'EXPLOIT.<br />BONNE CHANCE A ELLE....FABIEN Rhttp://www.attypik.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-40467540658097061082010-06-10T22:27:11.946-07:002010-06-10T22:27:11.946-07:00I'm assuming that all updates will be posted h...I'm assuming that all updates will be posted here. <br /><br />Hey Mom and Dad.

Glad you got a start on drying things out, although I suggest focusing on one or two items to dry out at a time, then you won't feel so defeated when they all get soaked again, as we know they probably will. <br /><br />As for starting the book, there's no need to have a "starting point." Some of the best stories are never written because they remain in scraps of paper, or in journals, lacking a "starting point." Keep it all together and decide when the brillant idea strikes you. Never force a title or a chapter, you may only regret it down the line. <br /><br />I'm very much anticipating this book. I think it will be fascinating to read about your journey, without having to check your blog!!!!! <br /><br />BEST WISHES ABBY!!<br /><br />XOXO - AlanaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-6398363518885442010-06-07T04:10:47.677-07:002010-06-07T04:10:47.677-07:00@stacie i got the same message in AUS but try agai...@stacie i got the same message in AUS but try again and chose full episode that worked here in Queensland. @ ABBY keep up the fantastic good work, I will keep following your jurney from down under.best wishes from a grandfather and coastel sailerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-81544656462711812212010-06-07T03:57:08.807-07:002010-06-07T03:57:08.807-07:00Make notes on your feelings about things, your str...Make notes on your feelings about things, your struggles, and what strategies you used to pull you through these. Also, any details that help you remember incidents. People will want to read about how you were emotionally suited to this voyage, and how you gained the emotional tools you needed to make it. Much of this story is going to be a testament to the influence of your family; that would be interesting to read about. As another poster said, now is the time to make notes, and fragments that help retain ideas will do at this point. I think this is a story that will write not only one book but also perhaps others as you get older, gain perspective and perhaps watch others do the same thing.craigellachiehttp://www.xanga.com/craigellachienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-53276184846682908092010-06-07T03:50:17.868-07:002010-06-07T03:50:17.868-07:00Good pix!

I think that what you have written here so far will be very helpful to you-- that, in addition to the more private feelings and incidents that need to made note of if only to yourself. People will want to read about what you struggle with-- even if it's the fact that you are so in the public eye even though you are in many respects alone out there. And yet not. Lots of good stuff to ponder on that way! I think it's a book you'll be adding to for the rest of your life, really, as you gain in years and perspective and experience.craigellachiehttp://www.xanga.com/craigellachienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-77433737856359533622010-06-06T23:32:29.626-07:002010-06-06T23:32:29.626-07:00An haiku for you:

In order to give more weight to your story however, I would have liked to see the pictures of:<br /><br />1- Condensation on the walls and roof,<br />2- Extent of water damage to the back of the cabin,<br />3- Bilge pump at work draining the water,<br />4- Heater that has been sprayed on,<br />5- You hard at work cleaning the aftermath of the flood.<br /> <br />At the challenging moments that you have recently experienced the only thought is to remedy the problem immediately and taking pictures hardly comes to mind. But the pictures taken at these moments in life are the most memorable when looked at a future time.<br /><br />A more visible place for the donation would attract more customers on the “help support Abby’s trip” referral site; it is placed way at the bottom and is easy to miss. I first thought you just sell videos and tee shirts only.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
