I am honest, thoughtful, intelligent, generous, funny, and sensual in a down-to-earth kind of way. I have a very playful and passionate nature. I love being active - swimming, cycling, kayaking, camping - but those things are so much more fun with a companion. I'm looking for a best friend who will share in the fun of playtime as well as the occasional frustration of being a "grown-up," and who is open to growing into a permanent, mature relationship. I love music. I sing (well, I'm told) and can convince the untrained ear that I play the guitar. I have been singing and playing liturgical music most of my adult life. I listen primarily to classic rock and country but I can enjoy just about any genre at an outdoor venue. A concert under the stars is a little slice of heaven. Someday I hope to kayak out to Bear Island from the mainland. I started cycling again last summer. While I have always loved the outdoors, I have not always been this active. It has come as part of a conscious choice to be true to myself. I recently encountered this quote, which I really love:"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs...[And] if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly. " I have very mixed feelings about that. I have been teaching children with special needs for nearly thirty years. Love the job, love the kids, do not love the direction that politics and educational policy have taken in the past decade. Still not quite sure I want to be when (if?!) I grow up - so for now I'm happy to have a few more years to contemplate that. As I approach the end of my career, I find myself seeking out more challenges rather than less. I want to travel. I want to encounter other cultures, places I've never seen before. I want to use the skills that I've developed over the years in new ways. I am not young, gorgeous, or thin. I hope to find an affectionate best friend who will appreciate the sparkle in my eyes more than the wrinkles around them, and the sound of my laughter more than the measure of my thighs. I love music and the outdoors. An outdoor concert (I'll bring the picnic - we can munch and talk before and after!) sounds great, but I'm open to lots of options so long as it's public and we can talk.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. Here's a little about me:I'm looking for a friendship that could perhaps turn into a relationship. I have two "children" - the four-legged kind (cats.) I love to travel. Mountains, Beach, travel out West - Grand Tetons, Yellowstone; Cruises are a favorite way to travel - best vacation $$$ ever spent. Although I enjoy traveling, I'm just as comfortable sitting at home watching tv or a movie with that special someone. I enjoy hiking, gardening and working out at the gym. I've just discovered Zumba and really enjoy that.I listen to classical music most of the time, but also enjoy contemporary christian music and the wonderful hymns that we sing.I'm an "old-fashioned girl" and I have extremely high moral values. I'm very independent; can take care of myself, but sure wouldn't mind having a handsome, big, strong man around.I have a great sense of humor, actually some would call it a warped sense of humor. I'm painfully shy, but once I get to know you, the "sassy" in me starts to show. I'm a musician (pianist, singer) and am very involved in my church. I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior at an early age. My desire is to serve God and follow His will in all that I do.I am divorced, not my choice, but here I am. I'm looking forward to what God has in store for me. The most important thing is that you have a personal relationship with Jesus. Have you claimed Him as Savior and Lord of your life? If not, why not invite Him into your heart today. Good luck and best wishes to you. I hope you find what you're looking for, and that blessings will be plentiful. For my first date, I'd like to meet at a coffee shop for some coffee and perhaps a bear-claw, or meet at a fast-food place for lunch.

I'm energetic, bubbly, I like my life, I love my job. I tend to be more positive about things. I smile a lot because I have a lot to smile about. I'm blessed with two really great adult children. I'm a grandma. Not looking to get married, Not saying I never would but I'm looking for someone to do things with, dinner, dancing, just simple things, taking walks, talking, watching movies at home. I love to cook, and entertain. I am a country music fan, although I listen to most music. I can do without rap, I can't understand it.I love the beach, I like to take long walks and go to craft fairs or flea markets. I love spending time taking long drives just to look at the leaves of fall or the lights of christmas. I don't need a man to take care of me but I WANT a man who would like to share life's little pleasures and even the big stuff that sometimes isn't as pleasant. Someone who knows that I could take care of myself, but enjoys doing little extra things just because. I do have a few extra pounds ... I'm not huge, but I am fluffy. Good for cuddling. I am working on losing weight though and doing very well. Family is VERY important to me. I have a 2 year old grandson and he's the love of my life. I spend as much time as I can with him and my kids. I like to spoil my man, and I would hope that he would like to spoil me as well. Life is about finding someone who makes you smile even when you don't want to. It's about respecting each other, and to like doing little things that bring a smile. It may just be a hug or a kiss or even just a smile. It's all about not really wanting to leave in the morning and can hardly wait to come home at night. It's about kissing good morning and kissing goodnight. Never going to sleep angry. It's about Hugs. Its about being able to agree to disagree. I speak my mind and sometimes I get in trouble because of it but don't ask my opinion if you don't want it and don't say you like honesty if you don't. I'm witty and can be silly but know when to act like a lady. Well if you've made it this far, maybe I've peaked your interest... If I have don't be shy ... say hello it could be the start of something great!!! If it isn't then we've made a friend we didn't have before. Smile, it makes people wonder what you're up to. I would rather have a first MEET, let's just meet for coffee or drinks, and see if there is any kind of connection, relaxed is better, rather than a Date. it may turn into that. who knows.
