About Me

wow. really?! adding myself to a virtual menu... surreal. but ok... I look first for a thinking mind!!!! I love creating things, making things- art stuff- indoors outdoors, simple to not simple-engineered or whim-new from old! history.objects,philosophy,literature,music, whatever! the past is what makes all of us new each day. there seems to be no sure formula for this so here goes; I'll try to hit the most asked categories, let me know what I missed!I've been on my own for the last 10 years, my children are grown and on their own, I don't have dependent parents or a mortgage; 2 indoor cats have me and every bird that I can attract to the outdoor feeders I count as friend. I love words in all forms--art,talking,writing,games,humor & lyrics & reading & debate & all the languages you speak. TV: I find all I need online--I dig the closed captions...I don't miss tv sports but am sure I could still nap thru it on the right lap. Movies: all but halloween type horror works for me. I also try to see the Banff Film Festival each year. Theater: I love theater! Books: they all have merit...there is so much to discoverDaily www reads: brainpickings.org, thisiscolossal.com , lostateminor.com, Outdoors: Garden IV life!; picnics and car rides &; forests & what have you? Indoors: comfort and haven and refuge; laughter and fun, courage and understanding.... and PROJECTS! I have a pottery studio and love clay. I also like tools,paint, glue and fabric and decorating and lumber and metal and paper &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& STUFF~Music- Piano, acoustic guitar and clarinet always catch my ear. I love voices, from Barbershop to Sinatra, listing music is like naming books... might be simpler to list what I easily live without? >> Molly Hatchet...& most screaming electric guitar.Travel: I've lived in 4 states, have kept this address for 33 years. The USA has something spectacular to offer no matter where you go!Humor: I love to laugh a LOT!--take your good time with you...do the right thing & seek peace. Perspective is everything: The sinking of the Titanic was a miracle to the live lobsters in the ship's galley."The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.” ?Socrates“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”? Maya Angelou"Let her tell stories and dance in the rain, somersault, tumble and run, her joys must be high as her sorrows are deep, let her grow like a weed in the sun."— Neil Gaimancollage and mosaic are my natural way and this quote seems to speak to life being that way too!"Things break all the time. Glass and dishes and fingernails. Cars and contracts and potato chips. You can break a record, a horse, a dollar. You can break the ice. Chains can be broken. So can silence, and fever... promises break. Hearts break."— Jodi Picoult"It sometimes takes a state of solitude to bring to mind the real power of companionship." —;Dr. Adler had *** to always say whatever I was thinking, but this was difficult for me, for the act of thinking and the act of articulating those thoughts were not synchronous to me, or even necessarily consecutive. I knew that I thought and spoke in the same language and that theoretically there should be no reason why I could not express my thoughts as they occurred or soon thereafter, but the language in which I thought and the language in which I spoke, though both English, often seemed divided by a gap that could not be simultaneously, or even retrospectively, bridged." —;There is an odd synchronicity in the way parallel lives veer to touch one another, change direction, and then come close again and again until they connect and hold for whatever it was that fate intended to happen." — Ann Rule"I said at the beginning of this ramble that life is meaningless. It was not a flippant assertion. I think it’s absurd: the idea of seeking “meaning” in the set of circumstances that happens to exist after 13.8 billion years worth of unguided events. Leave it to humans to think the universe has a purpose for them. However, I am no nihilist. I am not even a cynic. I am, actually, rather romantic. And here’s my idea of romance: You will soon be dead. Life will sometimes seem long and tough and, god, it’s tiring. And you will sometimes be happy and sometimes sad. And then you’ll be old. And then you’ll be dead. There is only one sensible thing to do with this empty existence, and that is: fill it. And in my opinion (until I change it), life is best filled by learning as much as you can about as much as you can, taking pride in whatever you’re doing, having compassion, sharing ideas, running, being enthusiastic. And then there’s love, and travel, and wine, and sex, and art, and kids, and giving, and mountain climbing … but you know all that stuff already. It’s an incredibly exciting thing, this one, meaningless life of yours." ~Tim Minchin, ***commencement address, The University of Western Australia.com

    I love my life and wouldn’t change a thing. But, I would like to meet a man that is willing to start with friendship and see where it leads. I love to run and am always preparing for running events, I enjoy listening to post grunge and rap while I am running. However, I listen to any and everything. I would like to find that someone who is physically fit and likes to take on challenges. I love to bike, hike and swim. I adore the beach!I have three wonderful boys (ages 16, 14, ***who keep me grounded, young and extremely busy. It is an honor to be their mother, and I make it my priority to be the best role model possible. I am looking for that special someone who enjoys the intimacy of conversation, is loving and compassionate toward others and has the same zest for life that I do. I don’t sweat the small stuff either – you can’t with three boys. I need someone who is the same way.If you think you can keep up with me and my three boys, then I would like to hear from you.

    Hi There. I really dislike this part as I am not big on talking about myself. I am a good woman, interested in meeting new people having fun and just seeing where things might go . - I smoke- I enjoy meeting new people- doing new things. I have decided that if you are NOT looking for that one significant other, you are more likely to find them. Therefore I am NOT on that fishing trip of a life time if you know what I mean. I do not like people that override the conversation--conversation is at least a 2 sided thing....I work for a medical insurance company processing medical claims. Blessed in these times, to have good employment. I am not one to laze around. I enjoy living life. I love to camp in the fall and the spring, and the summer is good too but not without power. :0)I have 3 boys. All over the age of 18. Only one is still at home -- but he does his own thing for the most part. I am interested in getting married again but want to take it slow. I want to meet my knight in shining armor. Doesn't mean he has to be perfect, just perfect for me. I enjoy beer and wings on Sundays. During Football or NASCAR, and of course you must be willing to teach the art of football. I watch it, but I don't get it. lol . Live music, fun, laughing, playing, Busch Gardens, party's-- not saying that I cant be serious, but I am not serious all the time. Life if too short. Saturday nights out or by the bonfire- grilling with friends or just us. I am interested in exploring the different wines -- love food and really don't care if the wine is a right mix for the food. If I like it, then its a right mix. Style? I have my own style.-- just not normal...not Vogue or Cosmo so to speak.. If I like it and I am comfortable in it, then its in style. I am not a big shopper, but obviously will shop-- I believe that two people that are dating should really want to spend as much time together as possible. When I am in love and when I feel the love in return, I will give ***% of myself to that special one. I like winks from across the room, hand holding, touching and general affection with each other. I love my friends and my family so this person really needs to enjoy friend and family time. hopefully together.I am writing this off the cuff. Just typing as I think it. Plan to NOT re-read it--not going to critique my own thoughts and feelings. I can spell and I can type so if you see errors, dont judge. And lastly, my favorite color is Green. If you know this, then I will know you have read my entire 'under construction' profile-- At the risk of sounding prejudice, I do not date outside of my Caucasian race. Period. No exceptions. Hey, don't judge...I have my preferences. Hope you like what you have read and are willing to send me a HELLO. Lets just have fun. talk-get to know each other-. nothing intimidating, nothing expected.

    Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Taurus.

    Looking for: man. In age: 51-61

    HelloI am semi-retied and so looking forward to this next chapter in life. i have a beautiful mind and body. I enjoy walking and biking.. i am looking for a gentleman with an edge (own unique style) and someone who is open to share good times together. I am born Canadian by Italian parents. I am affectionate and passionate. I am a Taurus and thus at times a little stubborn.. I have amazing friends and a great family. I am constantly surrounded by great people and I am so grateful for that. I have two amazing daughters. I am a community outreach educator. I am loved and I am happy. I am nervous and excited about the future, but I am ready for the challenge. I know I am smart. I am grateful and so blessed. I have no regrets. I am, right now, in my life where I am supposed to be and where I have always wanted to be. It feels great to be accomplished and ready for new challenges. I am independent. I can stand on my own two feet. I am hopeful. I am ready. I am strong physically and mentally. I am not afraid of failing. I am not afraid of being alone because I do not need anyone to show me my worth, I know I can do it on my own. I believe in love...love...love. I believe in heaven. I believe inner beauty will always last longer than outer beauty. I am beautiful inside and out. I know I have a guardian angel. I have 1 tattoo. I am real. I finally feel comfortable in my skin. I am free. I have a whole new chapter in my life to live. I am ME! "I believe that everything happens for a reason. people change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they're right...and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."Looking for a gentleman who is young at heart and has emotional maturity. Someone who is not bitter about their past and is open to loving completely and honestly. Be an excellent communicator and open to establishing a good trusting friendship. I am far from being perfect and do not expect perfection from you however together we may enjoy each other perfectly. We will both decide to see if we have a spark and commonalities to have our official "first date".
