Deirdre's Story
I consider League City, Texas home. Schools include Clear Creek High School, University of Houston, and University of Oklahoma (attended long distance - while living in Belgium!). I work in education, currently in Germany.
Music I like includes Adele, ZZ Top’s Greatest Hits, and Rosanne Cash. Books I like include 'A Geography of Time', 'The Global Achievement Gap: Why Even Our Best Schools Don't Teach the New Survival Skills Our Children Need--And What We Can Do About It', and 'Rise of the Rocket Girls'. Movies I like include Vantage Point, Deja Vu, and Pirate Radio. Favorite TV shows include Food Network UK, CBS Sunday Morning, and Countryfile.
Some of my favorite quotes are:"What you don't know, you can always learn", "Wisdom is knowi...Expand for more
ng what to do next" and "Every day gives you another chance" from Wisdom on a Blackboard, by Sister Mary Lauretta.
Okay, that's the old canned responses. The 'rest of the story' includes - met my husband at University of Houston; he joined the Navy which gave us opportunities to live / travel a great deal 'far and wide'. While our daughters were born in Virginia, we moved so that they attended schools in Italy, Alabama, Belgium, and Japan. He is now retired from the Navy and we live in Germany where I work. And, not too surprisingly, our daughters enjoy visiting us here. We've been very fortunate to live and see many things around the world, and there is still more to do! We visit the Houston area and League City often.
Cheers!
