Eliz on Camino

A very quiet morning. Just got back from Shetland late last nite. All still asleep all over the house. Came back with 3 extras. Shannon(Texas/London), Whitney(Texas) and Erika (Sweden). Thought I would put up a quick post about Elizabeth and Cindy as I didn't get to before we left. Got a text yesterday saying they were now in Villafranca del Bierzo. Had a really good day of walking and walked over 30 km. They still have no blisters (amazing). Seems they have only a week, or less, left. Making plans now on getting them back. I am planning on making it to London, at least, to go with her to visit a friend and spending the day on the train together from the bottom of england to the aberdeen ferry on the 16th. Me and Jules (Cindy's sister) have been looking at driving or flying from London to Spain to celebrate with them and bring them home. Not sure if financially viable option. Please pray for wisdom, the right decisions and unity in the process. The end of the Camino is a very important transistion and we want to do it right. BTW Cindy has some good thots on her blog from the Camino.

mumjones,

you don't know me but i feel like i know you. my wife and i live in Abilene, Tx and i am a graduate student there. i stumbled on to your blog after some bloghopping in class one day.

i can't tell you what your thoughts and meanderings (meant in a strictly positive way) have meant to me. you are a breath of fresh air and a wonderful boost to my day. i don't follow very many blogs... yours, mine, and a few others around, but short of my own yours is the favorite part of my cyberday.

just wanted you to know.
God bless.

I love the Dixie Chicks as well. I found another band that you might like, Antigone Rising. They rnmied me of each other, without being the same. I actually picked it up on a whim at Starbucks, they were playing it in the store so I kindof liked the sound. Great CD. Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog. I have a son on the spectrum. He is 13 now, but I tell you, one sentence into your most recent blog entry about the three screams, I knew exactly where you were going. We used to parent trying to use traditional methods, before we knew. I want to say that more love and less anger made all the difference in the world. I simply can not believe he is the same child now that he was at 6 or 7. We completely overhauled our parenting approach, and boy did it pay off. He feels so safe now and knows that he can come to us no matter what. We used to give him time outs for tantrums and for not following through with things that he (we didn't know this) just needed to understand the big picture about in order to be compliant. We thought it was defiance. We couldn't have been more wrong. School is a different story, always an uphill climb working with the staff there. Anyway, sorry for the long comment. Nice blog and hang in there! I'll be back to visit again.:)
