Linda's Story

Life After graduating from Millersville State College in 1976, I taught in Bensalem Schools(middle school art); then I worked with Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship as staff at Temple Ambler, Tyler School of Art and Beaver College;then we headed off for 8 years with our family to Morocco for my husband's PhD and post doctoral research and there I learned how to herd a cow, scrub clothes in a river, and other life tasks in a village on the side of a mountain in the beautiful High Atlas Mts. We also lived in the famous city of Marrakesh where we learned how to make good couscous, "jifaf" a floor and bargain for a non-tourist price. Moved to the Boston area in 1994. We started homeschooling overseas then continued it when we moved back as kids needed it for until 2007 when youngest entered high school(that one tired me out!) Living in New England for almost 17 years honed my snow shoveling skills, but I still drive like I am from Pennsylvania, which means I use my turn sign...Expand for more
als and believe that left hand turns are not made from the far right lane! I still say "budder" and "wadder" when I talk quickly or am tired and not trying to deliberately shed those Philadelphian accent clues but thankfully I do not say "pahk"(park for non-Bostonians) nor use the every-popular local phrase- "wicked"... I seem to remember that being popular in Council Rock back in the late sixties/early seventies.... but it appears to be enduring here. I have published educational articles and ran a small side business doing crafts over the years. Currently, I am working with autistic spectrum students and enjoy it...middle schoolers crack me up which probably means I have a peverse sense of humor or at least masochistic tendencies. My newest interest is to work with my Golden Retriever puppy and eventually become a dog therapy team to go into a local nursing home or veterans hospital. I have been married to a great guy- for almost 43 years. Enough of my mundane tale!!!!
