About Me

Hello there! Okay, here's a little bit about myself...I am a Guidance Counselor in a public K-8 school. I love my job and wouldn't want to do anything else. To make this easier, I asked some friends to describe me and here are the results: fun-loving, sweet, adventurous, motivated, family oriented, considerate of other's feelings, and energetic. I am quick-to-smile and somewhat inquisitive! I enjoy all sorts of activities and will pretty much try anything once - I’ve gone sky diving, cliff diving and accomplished the knee-hang catch on a flying trapeze! I enjoy fine dining, traveling to tropical islands, rollerblading, roller coasters, hiking, some snow skiing, pistol shooting, obstacle/adventure running/races (i.e.: Tough Mudder 2x), and CrossFit for exercise! I am the type that loves getting dressed up and going to a nice restaurant one night and maybe camping out by a fire the next; I can suit the occasion and enjoy doing so. I spent a great deal of time in college and working hard. I own my own home and am financially independent. Ive had several (very) long term relationships (8 years, 7 years, and 6 years each) and although none of them developed into a life-long future, I feel that I am a better person because of them.I have fulfilled all of my academic and career goals and hope to meet a man who has done the same...hence, who is ready for a committed relationship. I am looking for someone who I can share myself with - someone who will be my love, as well as my best friend. I am finally ready to meet the man who I am meant to be with. Although I am not looking for a relationship that is only "convenient", I have tried the long-distance thing once or twice and have found it difficult. I do also understand that everyone is on their best behavior during the get-to-know-you stage...which is why I do not tend to jump into things. I will try to be as up-front as possible in this.Having said that, I prefer to meet sooner than later. As much as I appreciate good writing technique, as illustrated in *** &/or text messages, I would much rather meet early on to determine if there is a spark between us - which is absolutely necessary!! ;)

    No, I'm really not a rockstar... Well, maybe a little bit. I am a mom of 4 kids, who works very hard to balance my "mom" time with my "me" time. I am a nurse who loves her job. I get to work with high school students every day! I enjoy watching most sports, but have a special place in my heart for soccer. I like to look pretty, but I'm not the girliest girl out there. I don't particularly like to fish, but I think I would enjoy hunting... and I do like to keep my toes polished! :) I like a man to be a man... what does that mean exactly??? I am a strong woman and I can mostly take care of myself, but I think it's sexy when a man does something to "take care" of me... (btw...when I say mostly, I mean I have a few issues with lawn maintenance and reaching the really high light bulbs that need to be changed at my house...) I'm not really to the travel every weekend stage of life yet, so if you are looking for that in a woman, I'm probably not your girl. You also don't need to own a bike to get my attention. I'm still raising my children, so I definitely don't mind if that is where you are as well. I am not looking for a new father for my kids... they already have one. Is my life perfectly tidy? I'd be lying if I said yes, but I am also not looking for my Knight in Shining Armor to come rescue me! :) I'm hoping to find someone that I can walk through life with. Is that you?? I want to talk and get a sense of who you are, so I'm not overly concerned with the where and what.... I'd prefer not to sit next to you at a movie on the first date. I'd like to focus on you!

    Hi there! It is also nice not to have to be worried that my eggs have not been properly refrigerated. So about me -- I love to laugh and place a premium on a sense of humor, extra points if it's self-deprecating. Otherwise, I'm relatively normal, although I am fairly short. :)
