About Me

I've been through it all and back again. I'm thankful for all the blessings God has given me-- I'm proud of all I've accomplished in my education and career and give work all I've got and then some more. I believe in the value of education, and I'm committed to public education down to my very core. I'm proud to be an educator, and believe I'm making a difference in the lives of children.I'm very passionate about everything in my life, and that passion defines me as who I am. Intense, quirky, and gung ho, I go at life with everything I am and everything I have. No, I'm not easy to handle and I wouldn't have it any other way. I march to the beat of my own drum and while I welcome company during that march, I won't change the cadence of the march to make someone else happy. I like me just the way I am and am lucky enough to have so many friends who also like me that way!While life has not always led me to where I wanted to be, it has always led me to where I needed to be and I gain tremendous comfort from that. Whatever path my journey has led me down, I have loved deeply and appreciated those who stood beside me during some of those paths through dark and scary places. I am fiercely loyal to those I love and who love me, and my loyalty never falters. I speak the truth, no matter how difficult the truth is. I am straight-forward about who I am and represent myself with integrity and honesty. With me, what you see is indeed what you get. That has been both a blessing and a curse, I guess.While I have regrets, I also know that I am who I am today because of the mistakes I made in my youth. If I had to do it all again to be where I am today, I would do so in a heartbeat. At the end of the day, I can rest my head on my pillow and know three things: I am loved by my God; I am loved by my family and friends; and I have given the day all I have inside me to give. That's how I roll.I love to hike, go for long walks, and Pilates. I am an avid reader, often reading two or three books at a time. I enjoy the theater, opera, and ballet. I'm also a rabid football fan and support my teams without fail (Go Vols, Geaux LSU, Go Titans, and Who Dat!). I guess I have a variety of interests. I'm a well-rounded person who is very intelligent and well educated. I am at my best in the outdoors, and I spend as much time in nature as possible. What am I looking for? I am looking for someone who understands that I am new to the dating scene and who will be willing to move very slowly. I enjoy being courted and am at heart an old fashioned girl. I am looking for someone who is willing to be emotionally present in a relationship and who values the same things I do. I'm not a superficial person and can't abide someone who is. I'm looking for someone who is real and down to earth, someone who has lived the highs and the lows of life and is ready to embrace life with all he has. Life is too short to be any other way. If this is you, send me a message. Something very public with quiet for talking for first dates. I'd like to get to know each other through texting/email first then move into phone calls and face to face meetings. I believe having coffee, lunch, dinner, or touring a museum are excellent choices for a first date. Once we have met and become comfortable with each other, a walk in the park or on the trails would be my idea of a perfect date. I also love sporting events, so watching football, baseball, or hockey would be a fun and exciting date. Any theater, opera, or ballet performance would work well too. I'm very flexible and have a variety of interests, so I'm very easy to please when it comes to dates.

    i like to hike, walk, yoga; well, most anything outsidei would like to find a longterm relationship/partnership. i have one child whom lives with me sometimes. i like an array of music. couple of my favorite movies are shawshank redemtion, forest gump and like water for chocolate. i love day moons! i taught my mini-me about why there are day moons and why i like them. so now everytime there is a day moon she says "there is mommy's moon". ok, i was told that last comment sounded...funny! guess so, had not crossed my mind. :-)don't know why but my favorite number is 13. i like mondays the best. if you have a great monday...you will have a great week. i try to make today better than yesterday. and no i am not a cheerleader, just happy with life. "life is good" .; although, the thought of a black sheep on my butt has come across my mind...NO.) i think every relationship should have romance, come on guys,all women love romance. and the old ***is just that the old. today we both must give 100%. and when one can't the other picks up and vice versa. i am kind of old school in that i would like to be treated like a lady (my father will still open the door for a woman)...ummm shallow, well i am attracted to someone whom likes to stay fit and healthy. i love to cook and eat mostly healthy (there is still the every once in a while' pizza or cheesburger!) can't always be good. send me an *** if there is a possible first intrest.one last thought....what is it with the bathroom mirror pics. and if you do, put the toilet seat down....and clean the mirror. LOL ok, not only the shirtless bathroom pictures but public bathroom pictures.....could you imagine walking into a restroom and there is a man standing shirtless taking a cell phone picture of himself? REALLY? LMAO. Ok, one more. why is it there are so many people in IT professions that post sideways pictures? oh, and I have learned it is never funny to point the remote at him and press mute. also please know the difference between there, their, they're.extra points....where do houseflies go in winter? and why don't we get goosebumps on our faces?mary dinner somewhere we can talk and hear one another. or run around a sam's club grabbing all the free samples and consider that our first lunch date. something that is more fun than a barrel of monkeys. maybe a hike. playground.....break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably and never regret anything that made you laugh :)..........adaptation of samuel clemens

    I am a positive, loving, caring, open minded, honest, very fun and down to earth kinda girl. I am looking for that special love to spend the rest of my life with, Mr Right. I am always on the go (keeping busy). I love the hot weather and taking long walks on the beach. I am a country girl that loves horseback riding. I am looking for a person who appreciates the finer things in life and who has good values. I want someone that can communicate openly and to be my BEST FRIEND. Before responding to me, please make sure that you are someone that is TOTALLY happy with one lady. NO PLAYERS Meet for a cup of coffee or a drink. No pressure and see if we are compatible.
