I am LitupRosie and I am starting my blog today. I have not learned how to work the system yet so I shall probably make some mistakes.
I was born in Brighton England in 1941 and came to the U.S.A. in July of 1975 with my month old daughter Susie. It was quite a change for me but I enjoyed it though I did miss my mother. My father had died in October of 1964. I think that was more of a blow to me than emigrating to the U.S.
I could not continue with my career as a teacher and so became a stay at home mom (I had taught elementary school in England (and Germany) for 13 years). I did do a little teacher's aid work when I first arrived.
I loved the climate of the Central Coast much better than the unpredictable English weather.
We soon purchased a house after only a couple of months. I made a new friend, Dawn, who lived down the street and a lady offered to drive me to the First United Methodist Church downtown. I felt I adjusted pretty well to the huge change in my life. Well, that's how I got here .
