CAPULLO || 100 Days of Zentangle ® 2021 || Day 8

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Omg! I just noticed there's a section with something else playing over it! It doesn't last long and I do apologize! I decided not to do the upload again and instead focus on tomorrow! 💜 thanks for understanding! 💜 😩🤗

[@shareeburbank2836]

I kind of enjoyed the stereo effect! 😄

[@wegotthepower]

I was a bit confused there for a second and was wondering where the other sound came from & thought “oh have I started two videos at the same time or something?” 🙈 I wanted to hear what you talked about in both of them so I got a bit confused there for a second 🙈 It’s totally fine though! 💜

[@wegotthepower]

Also - I really, really liked this tangle and I’m for sure a grid pattern lover 😍

[@sheilabartlett6044]

It’s a Beautiful tangle! Your life with your son is so typical of his age, he is trying to spread his wings, and sometimes they get clipped. It will all work out. I remember going through the mouthy stuff with my son, and one day I said to him, “you know even though I’m your mother, I have feelings too”. That seemed to really hit home with him and our turning point. He now is a Wonderful father of 4. Hang in there! Thanks for sharing with all of us. My favourite phrase is “what if”. Love it!

[@mariejosemcmillianalcala2960]

Respect is a very important value

[@nancygragg5695]

Unload all you want. I know it helps. Both of my sons live out-of-state and the younger son called the other day at the wrong time and I unloaded on him for about an hour. He is so patient - He's about your age. I love your videos and I don't want them to get you down - so please, just don't worry so much about what you are trying to edit out - leave it in - we can live with it. Just have fun with it.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

I am sending you a big hug Nancy! Thank you!

[@angdrumm]

I have two boys, late teens, one has High functioning Autism. I can promise it does get better and they do appreciate you more as they grow older. Thank you for sharing your stories with us.

[@margaretluebbehusen7259]

Remember your a strong women. I lost my son also. He was a Sophomore at IU. He had diabetes and was challenged with it. I will always say it was like a It felt like a sever womb that was wide open and bleeding. To survive you wrap it up tightly and don’t open it for awhile. Until one day you need to check on it to make sure it really happened. Then you slowly unwrap the gauze until you come face to face with the injury. There is a scar and always will be a scar. Later, you still feel the hurt because you’ve had a serious injury. January marks the 18 th year. My scar still hurts but not every day. I know some day I will see him again. My heart understand your grief. 🤟🏼

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Thank you Margaret. that is the perfect way to look at it....my gauze is finally unwinding.

[@ingegerritsen6873]

Thanks so much for this lovely tutorial and for you being you. 💜 💜

[@R_Ur_eyeswideshut1917]

Hi Cyndee....I am 51 with a 14 y/o daughter, she is my youngest and I 100% relate with you. Lol. The arguing over school work, she can't stand for me to help her and she gets pretty disrespectful at times. Deep breathing is an everyday thing for me now. Lol. You got this. Much love and respect my friend. Hang in there. 💙🙏😁

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Thanks for sharing!! 💜 I am bolstering my defenses!

[@ceceb0207]

Love these grid patterns!

[@peggydarch1094]

Hi Cyndee. I am Peggy from Ontario, Canada. I am brand new to Zentangle and found your site a few weeks ago. I am 67 yrs old and still working part time as a Pharmacist Assistant. I have decided to try your 100 day tangles. I have 1,2 and 3 done so far. I am really enjoying it And I enjoy listening to you talk about you and your family. It helps me forget about what is going on out there, at least for a little while.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

You are so welcome! 💜 I feel this helps me too! I am so glad you found us and want to welcome you to the Zentangle community 🥰

[@pollyheinselman825]

Another fun one I enjoyed and am caught up again on 2021. Back to working on 2020 day 46 now. Your snoring fur buddies I can relate to well. I had two Large Ragdoll cats and we lost the 23lb one named “Puppy” a year ago at 15 yrs old. Boy could he snore like a trooper. LOL. Now his housemate of about 18 lbs at 15 yrs old named Jinx has taken up the snoring also as he lays on the bed next to my chair. 😊

[@TheTirelessTangler]

awesome! I am sorry you lost one! that is never easy!

[@robinchristensen2784]

I love it when you share your life with us. It feels like getting together with a friend. I like grid patterns, I put the 100 tangles in my dot journal which makes it easier to do.

[@jeanneacuna5178]

Your pronunciation is spot-on! A capullo is a cocoon. Really enjoying following you from sunny, chilly Northern California. ♥️

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Oh thank you!

[@lorianndupont7586]

Also....Cindy, raising teenagers is TOUGH. Girls or boys. I was 37 when I had my 7th child. Not very old, but not at all young. One of the old mom's on the block! You should feel very free to 'dump' your thoughts, etc, it's survival. I, for one, do NOT EVER mind listening. And contributing thoughts. I tell you, we all are fortunate to have each other to talk to. For me, it helps my mental health incredibly. Anyway, thank you for sharing so deeply. I can relate to so much of what you're going through, but you certainly have a good attitude! Counting our blessings, gratitude, is really extremely important, and I do hear that from you a lot. Ok, back to art. 👩🏻‍🏫🎨🖍❤️

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Thanks for this Lori! It helps! 💜 💜

[@annettederksen4896]

Another great time spent with you. Now to make brunch for my hubby. Loved this tangle. Did okay with it but flowers not even but would do this one again. Thanks enjoy your week. 🤗🤗🤗🇨🇦 Forgot to mention that I love your nails.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Wonderful!

[@nancypearson4952]

I drew along with you using a 4” square tile. This made for a lot of inking but it turned out lovely. I shaded your way and that also made it look great. My husband is in the hospital and tonight my son found a pipe leaking in a basement closet. This has been very upsetting because my husband always knows what to do. Needless to say I have been very upset because it seems I am wired to make mountains out of molehills! First thing in the morning I am calling someone. Anyway, drawing this tile gave me an hour or so of peace and zen I guess. Thank you Cyndee!

[@TheTirelessTangler]

hi Nancy! How is he doing? Has he come home yet? sending you love, hugs and puppy kisses from OK 💜💜🥰

[@judybraden1553]

WOW!

[@lorianndupont7586]

I liked it Cindy, and I am generally one for anything organic but this was very very pleasing and zenful. Thank you for the tut, hi to Mari, Simba,& River! No worries about voiceovers and such...❤️

[@TheTirelessTangler]

You are so welcome!

[@baelt64]

A beautiful tangle. I really like how you did it. Thank you.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

You’re welcome 😊

[@johncarter4411]

I love the quote today, I have happy tears. Thank you

[@TheTirelessTangler]

You are so welcome

[@mariejosemcmillianalcala2960]

I put some white spots with a white gel pen. Looks like stars and make the pattern pop

[@rimonagale1625]

These tangles make me think of Chrisanthemums. Very nice! Also love the meta patterns that emerge. And, I can relate to a lot of your "boy" talk; having gone through it.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

It's really good to know people survive them! 💜 😂

[@goughlifeisgood4068]

Don’t know when or if you read this comment... I am enjoying your channel and even though I am doing you 100 zentangle from last year..I am new to your channel and to drawing zentangle.. thanks for your time..

[@lolanp36]

FYI I'm usually pretty good with grid patterns BUT this tangle took me at least SIX attempts before I f i n a l l y got it correct. But, baby, I've got it now. Very pretty tangle!!!

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Well done!

[@jamiecee4960]

Nice Tangle.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Thank you! 😊

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

I went to mid points of each mini square side, then to 1/4 points, and it works out fine, Cyndee. I even had the lines meeting at the midpoints on the other commons sides. Not a bad grid tangle, thanks for sharing this.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

Wonderful!

[@lolanp36]

Love your tangles!!! This is my second 100-day challenge with you. My favorites are optical illusions -- like Tomas Padros. Thanks! Have fun ... hello to Mari

[@TheTirelessTangler]

thanks for sharing your thoughts! I will look for some!

[@maryjo8882]

I really enjoyed the painting which is something I have never done with zentangle so I thank you. It was a lot of fun.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

I'm so glad!

[@marilynneblakely1269]

Share, unload, rant and/or rave......I will be happy to listen. I have no pearls of wisdom, though. I did help raise my partner’s two children but I got SOOO lucky because they were both great kids....then and now. None of my own since I was sure I didn’t have the patience it would require. I laughed when you said we all probably had our 08 pens out already because I’d switched to my 10!! I haven’t done a grid pattern in quite awhile so I enjoyed this. Grids are good for me when I want to go sort of “mindless” and not have to think too much. As for editing, I think you do a beautiful job but it pains me to hear how much of your time it takes. It sounds like a good reason for burn-out and I don’t want that to happen to you. I treasure our time tangling and always miss you when you haven’t posted. I’m totally good with letting a lot of it go.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

thank you sweetie! 💜

[@julie-annemyers2971]

Cyndee, every word you say about struggling with Mari is just like you're telling my story. EXACTLY. Every single bit. My trouble with Caleb began with his change over from primary school to secondary school, big school, at the age of 11/12. He just couldn't cope with the change over & I've been fighting to have him assessed for ASD. He has his 'ways' and certain things he just can't cope with eg crowds, anyone (even me) touching him even accidentally he loses his temper, he can't stand a lot of noise unless its him making the noise & a lot lot lot more. So far he's been diagnosed with hypersensitivity and because he felt he didn't fit in with his peers in school he started to mix with the wrong crowd & got hooked on drugs, at the age of 14. Involved with police and has me at the end of my tether. He has been on constant supervision at home and supposedly at school from September when family friends & police were searching for him for a full day. We didn't know if he was living or dead. I'm also disabled and I'm sure you're well aware that any stress sends your fibromyalgia haywire. He's also really really smart but prefers to learn about his interests online & he'll learn every fact there is to know about it but hates school. Says he doesn't see the point when you can learn everything online, even though he won't do the homeschooling so the school has him attending school with the children of keyworkers and 'vulnerable kids' which he is. Lord, I never ever thought a child of mine would get involved with so much so young. My daughters are aged 34 & 21 & each of them had different issues but nothing this life-threatening. The Lord keeps me strong for every day with him, its so hard but my faith is my strength. As my dear dad always says they hurt who they love but take what is said with a pinch of salt. So true. So sorry for whinging on and there's me just wanted to let you know you weren't on your own haha 😅 but you're not. Your story is my story & our story is the nations story & so on. God bless you & Mari. Xo

[@rainbo1030]

I had already drawn akebia narfellow tentoculus and bloomerz because I was looking for new tangles to try and they came up on tanglepatterns first

[@janice2866]

Hi, I’m new to the Zentangle world and loved 💜 this video. It was you who got me started in the Zen tangle world I saw one of your videos and was just amazed at what could be done with A good instructor some fun patterns some pens or pencils. I watch you almost daily now and you are an inspiration to me. I lost the use of my hand and I’m slowly getting back art has helped. I just wanted to say thank you so much for your time and you wiggling lines they always turn into a fabulous piece of art! Oh you keep talking about these zentangle patterns Could you recommend other good places to learn from? Lol I have a Lotta time on my hands. OMG 😳 I had no idea how many how to videos you have on here lol. That will keep me pretty busy

[@lynngotham]

Do some research on Outward Bound survival training. Two of my granddaughters went at age 15v& 16 (when they knew more than their parents). Amazing turn around in their thinking.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

I've heard of this. I will look into it! thank you Lynn!

[@mariejosemcmillianalcala2960]

I'm so deeply sorry for your loss

[@ABirdWoman]

For those of us who have experienced a suicide of a loved one, I highly recommend reading “The Amazing Life of Billy Kidd” as a different perspective on self-taking of life. After my mother took her own life, I went to a gathering with John Edward of “Crossing Over” and that helped me come to terms with her choice as well. It is so tough for those who are left behind and especially if the Taker does not leave much information as to the “why”of it.... so the word “cocoon” seems especially fitting today as we consider coming out of that insulated place and becoming the butterflies we are meant to be! Heart hugs to you Cyndee!

[@TheTirelessTangler]

thank you so much for the suggestion Anne, and for your wisdom. we'll have to talk about this more in private 😘

[@carlitoalterego2709]

Beautiful words.

[@marcymccarthy]

I had a problem with making sure that each arched "arm" was symmetrical. The left one always "fell short". More practice, I guess.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

sometimes turning your tile and doing that side from the other direction. I had the exact same issue with mine, still it turned out well!

[@delorescasper2564]

Sounds like your son is a normal preteen to me.

[@TheTirelessTangler]

definitely!

[@mariejosemcmillianalcala2960]

Maybe he's "too" smart. He might get bored in school and that's why he doesn't want to do his homework

[@hamlings6264]

My mom took her life because of headaches and then my sisters boy shot himself in front of her. Then her daughter died from liver failure. I get it.😢
