No challenge this week - wait. I lied. Challenge #211

Hey all.
This weekend we travelled as a family to Calgary to go to Artoo's eye check up on (Monday) from his surgery in November. Thinking we'd get a little visiting in with friends and family - we drove up on Saturday. Sunday morning artoo started getting sick and progressively worse and we ended up taking him into the emergency room at Alberta Childrens Hospital. 
Sadly I won't be able to issue a challenge this week. I'll catch you all up when I can. 
Thanks for understanding. 
Love Laura 

EDIT
okay after publishing this I checked my email and saw that newest zentangle newsletter has gone out.  in it they are sharing the official tangle FLUX in the Rick version and the Maria version. 

If you're so inclined, we'll make this the challenge for the week. 

I'm blogging this from my phone so I'm not able to add the appropriate links at the moment. And I won't be able to add the linkey machine for a little while.  (links and linkey machine have been added)

But maybe one of you could be a dear and post the link to the newsletter where they show flux? 

Thanks again for your continued understanding. I'll add the linkey when I am able. 
Artoo enjoying some hospital pudding.

    It's hard enough to be sick without also being away from home. Best thoughts for you all.

    I'm so sorry to hear that Artoo is doing badly again. I hope he feels better soon and that your appointment for his eyes goes well. The Newsletter for the Rick and the Maria version of Flux is here. http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?ca=0e6eae11-a47a-4b63-968f-22a8c61f646b&c=fbb6d100-e88a-11e3-8e2a-d4ae52754dbc&ch=fbbb16c0-e88a-11e3-8e2a-d4ae52754dbc

    At least that is what it shows in my address bar, hope it's the right one

    Best wishes for you all!

    My daughter was in hospital with pneumonia over Spring Break so my heart goes out to you and your family. I hope that you are back to your normal routine soon.
    At least tangling is a good way to pass the time while you wait to go home!

    Hope things get better soon for Artoo and the rest of you. Will keep you and your family in our prayers. Flux is a pattern that I teach consistently in my Basic class. It helps reinforce no mistakes and there is no right way. Most students get a chuckle that there are two versions.
