Why These Tangles Are Traveling

So, have you wondered the meaning behind the name of this "Traveling Tangles" blog?  Well, we are a Coast Guard family.  We move around the country.  And when I say around the country, I mean it!  We're originally from Florida, but have been stationed in Kodiak, Alaska, Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, and currently in southeastern Connecticut.  My blog posts (and Diva's Challenge submissions) have been lacking lately because we are on the verge of another move, this time 5300 miles away to Homer, Alaska!  The movers arrive to pack us out in 2 weeks, so we are a little crazed right now.  Fortunately, I am attending the CZT(Certified Zentangle Teacher) training before we move on, so I'll be sure to fill you in on all of the fantastic details of the weekend seminar.  It really is great timing, and will hopefully be a great stress reliever.  Our military lifestyle is one of the big reasons that I am becoming a CZT.  Not only is it something I love to do, but once I am certified to teach, I will have a portable means of income.

So forgive me if there aren't many posts to this blog in the next month or two, but you can follow us on our cross-country adventure if you wish.  That's right, we are driving to Alaska from Connecticut.  With two kids (ages 5 and 3) and a yellow lab who happens to be an Alaskan Native.  We will be blogging our journey here.
