About Me
I am at a total loss what to put here anymore. After many rewrites of my profile over the years, always being true to myself I find myself with few fish biting. So I am more than a little dissillusioned. Either I am using the wrong bait (there is no point in pretending to be someone I'm not), or the guys who might be a match, who might read and like my profile are either a rare breed, or a bunch of scaredy cats. I am a single mom. Like most I struggle, but I get my own bills paid and I working hard to keep my head above water. There's just not a lot left over for extras, so we live fairly simply. I'm low maintenance, will never spend more on a handbag than I spend on a week of groceries, and I wonder if I ever will own any jewelry worth insuring. But we've learned to appreciate the little things in life, and truly understand that whats important in life is not things. Its a simple but good life.My daughter is with me for just a few more years of school, and while she is still a priority, a lot of my activities center on her activities - music, sports, theater.. and in the summer Drum Corps. In other words, I don't have much of a life of my own - but I would like to change that. Now that she has her license I do less of the taxi driving... and I do more around home. There is always plenty to keep me busy - doing the yard work, gardening, (I like getting my hands in the dirt),home maintenance (I'd love to have my own personal handyman for that).. When its warmer I like to end a busy day in the garden with a campfire in the backyard - it would be nice to have more company than just the mosquitoes that stop by. Colder months will find me curled up with a book, or doing handcrafts, movies at home with something decadent for desert.I love to hit the road for random day trips year round, allowing myself the distraction of going to a flea market, museums, historic sites, a drive to somewhere new or nowhere at all, trying to improve my photography skills, stopping along the way at antique stores, having a picnic at the roadside.That is how things are now.. Doesn't mean I am not open to change.I am an American citizen by Naturalization, and while I have been in this country for most of my adult life, my roots run deep. I was raised to think outside the box, and still do - which means I don't always agree for the sake of conformity... Oh yeah, and I talk 'funny'.. (though on a recent trip home everyone was convinced I was American) It can be a good thing, or not.My dreams - not so different from anyone else. Travel to exotic locations, nights out, being treated like a princess... But most importantly, I dream of having someone in my life for the good and the bad. That empty pillow beside me doesn't offer much encouragement or solace. The speed dial on my phone is blank. The second wine glass at times of celebration is empty. And the day to day between the highs and lows.. I miss the companionship that we all need. You - I'll try to be open minded too. I'm not looking for perfect, but a girl likes to know you think she's worth the effort.Be brave. If theres anything that resonates.. drop me a line, I'd love to hear from you. Really hard to do much more than coffee or a drink in the winter.. but a game of minigolf in warmer weather would be a great way to show you how totally crazy I am... But please.. don't leave ALL the decisions up to me (day, time, place) I'm tired of making decisions all the time..lol.
