The plan for this changed. Instead of going to Washington Zoo in 2009 I went to San Diego Zoo in 2010! Saw two pandas plus an 8 month old cub who was curled up fast asleep! They were amazing and beautiful creatures and I am so happy I can now say I’ve seen them.

achieved this while on holiday in the summer. There was thunder and a few drops of rain but I’m not counting the goal as achieved until we’ve made love in a real downpour!
This goal has become a little easier since I started to focus on the present. I try to enjoy each day and find the positive in it. That isn’t always easy but with a bit of effort I’m able to stop myself looking back on mistakes and what could have beens. Or from looking ahead and wishing the time away. I think this quote sums it up for me, ‘Enjoy the present each moment as it comes because you will never get another one quite like it.’
