Born in London, UK. Spent first 12 years in New York (British Dad worked for Bell Labs). Returned to UK and school. Back to London. Married & had three wonderful sons (and now have 5 wonderful grandsons over there). Single again, working as Admin Asst for large Adult Education Institute in largest, very multi-cultural London borough. Met American academic who wooed and won me over several years. Moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. Did my first degree at UNM (American Studies: Southwest focus; Native American minor) over several years. Graduated 2002 with honors, aged 67. Now volunteering as an usher at UNM's major theater, Popejoy Hall, and mainly in several capacities at the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center. Do a lot of other volunteering; gave a TEDx talk on that at the ABQyouth event. Now supposed to be writing my father's biography for the family; hence blogging. I've just turned 80 and am very active (but don't exercise apart from making the big bed). Love cooking & reading, and Galavant on TV. So now you know all about me.
