“Your talent is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.” Leo Buscaglia
Life has been a whirlwind for our family over the last month. This is a busy time of year at Chez Redmond as we celebrate birthdays for Maggie, Katrina and Kim. Getting through the second anniversary of the accident was much better this year. Court dates – delayed yet again.
There has been lots of work travel for me with a big dollop of extra responsibilities. Travel bonus: A 2.5 hour flight delay offered the perfect time to teach a colleague Zentangle. She was a great student and is now a tangler. I taught my first Zentangle class as part of the LSU Leisure Class Series, with a second on Zendalas set for next Saturday. My deadline for next semester’s classes is tomorrow, so I’m working on a few extra ideas. Suggestions are welcome, I just need them quickly.
All of this has fostered the perfect environment for me to tangle away and de-stress. And that is exactly what I have been doing. I hope you enjoy my various gifts …

- I used my mixed media piece from earlier this year to have Zazzle create a zippered portfolio for my notepad, phone and pen. All I need for most meetings.
- I found this idea on Pinterest, but plain. Of course I had to tangle a few. I love the white ink on red the best.

- Maggie has outgrown her first pair of Tangled Toms, so I just had to make her a new pair for her birthday. The LSU purple was big hit, as was the funkier style of the shoe.
