Okay, so as of late I have not been blogging nearly as much as I would have liked. In fact, it seems that it takes a lot of effort to come up with grammatically correct posts. No wonder people “tweet” so much. LOL. In fact, my last blog post was so long ago, I am sure some NY Times Best Sellers have published a book or two in the interim. 🙂

The number of hours spent volunteering. There are times when my volunteering does not involve interacting with visitors. For example, this past December, I got to be Panda Claws at the Smithsonian National Zoo.

Will mark the 6th year of my volunteering in DC with the Smithsonian. I had originally thought it would take 35 years to make 1oooooo and it looks like it should take me 18 more years. Nothing like having a long term goal 🙂
Photos
Being Panda Claws was really fun and I thought I would include some photos. My friend Keith came to take photos of me and bought a panda hat to get into the spirit 🙂
