About Me

Waiting for a knight in shining armor - will do if he comes in jeans! :)About me....First I would like to say that I love life, & I love my Country! I don't always agree with Politics, however, I'm proud to be an American. I love being with friends & family as they are most important in my life beside's God. I've been told by other's that I have a very charismatic personality, and I'm fun to be around. I love to write, & I love to bring encouragement to people who are hurting. I love to push my limits and I'm willing to step outside of my own comfort zone's. I have an inner strength and drive that somehow keeps me going, even when the going get's difficult. I try to always keep a positive attitude in life *** focusing on the negative things that can drag you down.I have a broad taste in music, however I can't stand most Rap and hard core screamer rock music, it just put's me in a bad mood. :) I love shrimp cooked just about any way except coconut shrimp, yuck! I have a great sense of humor, and I love to laugh because life is way to ((short)) to be so serious all the time. I am very independent and can stand on my own two feet. I would love to have a man in my life, but my happiness doesn't depend on me being in a relationship. If I'm not happy with myself, then how can I make someone else happy? I'm looking for someone who is adventurous to share my life with, it's not very fun going alone. I enjoy the simple things in life, and I believe that the best things in life are free. I came across a quote describing some of the best things in life, and this one really stood out.... Having a Good Laugh – "Laughter is the greatest cure of all. Life is extraordinary in the moments when you are laughing so hard you can barely breathe. These moments of deep laughter are divine in the sense that they cleanse your mood and set your mind on a positive track". No money in the world can buy that; even a simple smile can melt a cold heart! :) Now mind ya, I don't suggest having one of those deep laughter spells in the deep end of the pool! Back when my cousin and I were teenagers, we had one of those deep laughter spells while swimming in the deep end, we were laughing so hard we nearly drowned, and that is no lie! :)A few things that I am looking for in a man is someone who is cheerful and optimistic. Someone who likes to get out of the house *** vegetating on the couch in front of a T.V. all the time. Someone who has a positive attitude in life; one who see's his glass is half full rather then half empty. Someone who can still see the beauty in life even when things are not so good. One of my favorite quotes that I live by is that "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain. And knowing that the Will of God, will never take you to where the Grace of God will not protect You." Trust me, I've been through many many storms in my life. One last last thing.... I'm sure you noticed some Military pictures that I have on my profile, well there's a reason for that. I am an Army Veteran, I served my Country many years ago, and planned on being a lifer. However, my Career was cut short by an injury I sustained while doing my job. I have had 3 surgeries to fix the problem, but unfortunately I could no longer do my job back then and I had to take a medical/honorable discharge. Yes, this woman loaded ships, bombs, ammo, military vehicles, and even Tanks! I still miss being in the Army to this day. Anyways, I may not agree with these 2 wars that we are in, but I will always stand behind, and support our soldiers!!! So, as one of my picture's say's....if you don't stand behind our Troop's, then feel free to stand in front of them! I know it's a bit blunt, but that's how I feel about this matter.My life is an open book, I have no secrets. So if you have any questions, or want to know more about me, please feel free to message me. I promise, I don't bite. :)

    Looking for: man. In age: 50-60

    LET'S GET THIS STRAIGHT....I'm dressed like a friggin' NUN in my photos..no "cuddle time" before meeting and greeting. Just sayin'...I am just a nice girl looking for a nice guy. But not desperate. My time is limited and precious. I am a mom, 4 kids, all older, one still at home for one more year. She is my life. I work hard, I am a student, an artist and I have been on my own for 10 years now. I am baffled as to why the laundry and dishes keep piling up - only me and my girl at home. Mysterious. It is like the missing sock thing. One time I cleaned my dryer vent and found 4 single socks and 20 bucks. Awesome!“'But I don’ 'Oh, you can’t help that,' said the Cat. 'We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.' 'How do you know I’m mad? 'You must be,” said the Cat. 'or you wouldn’t have come here.'” Meh. That about sums it up.I am a Librarian, tho' my training and education is mostly art and communications. I work all day with children and young people. I am a perpetual student, heading into my 4th year at BCC, slowly working on my second AA, eventually a BA or BS and maybe a Masters someday. I like my space. Raised 4 kids, and did a superb job. They are fabulous. I make great art. I don't much care about how much "stuff" you have. I am not into stuff. I love people and personalities.I love animals, music - mostly listen to country - books, reading, walking, talking, writing...extremely right - brained and mathematically challenged. Oh well. I tried to fish, literally, I mean. With an actual pole and bait. Turned out I was good at spotting bait, digging sand fleas, and snagging rocks. And guarding the cooler. I think that should count for SOMETHING> I like hiking - would prefer the mountains, but like the local nature preserves. Owned a horse in my youth, love to ride. Pretty basic stuff, I oame from a military family, so I am used to uprooting and traveling. I tend towards restlessness at times. I am fairly content with my life. I recently had a life-changing medical scare that put me in a new place of perspective.. Gratitude is key, as is forgiveness, love, faith, understanding and acceptance...rarely is it level. I am capable of drama but do not seek it. No longer so easily rattled. Everything is as it should be.I believe: The best time to plant a tree was 50 years ago...second best time? TODAY. (My Gumbo Limbo is flowering...whooo hooo!!!) I'm drawing a blank. I think of it as a meet and greet, not a date.

    Looking for: man. In age: 49-59

    Hi!I'm looking to date and find a friend that will develop into a relationship now that my kids are old enough to take care of themselves! It's been so long since I could take time for myself! Hobbies: love to golf (but am really bad at it), joined a bowling league so I could have a Saturday night out with some friends, love to ride my bike and take long walks. I do jazzercise 3x a week. I enjoy going to Ravinia and enjoy bringing a picnic basket of food and good wine. I enjoy country music, but listen to anything but rap. I love a good sense of humor in the guy I'm seeing. I like the talkative type vs the quiet type and am easy to talk too. I don't play games; I'm candid and straight forward. I'm down to earth and low maintenance. Love a sense of humor--someone who can make me laugh. Someone to have fun with!I'm not interested in having an affair or sleeping around. Don't bother writing me if that is all you have in mind. I'd like to develop a relationship with the right guy.I don't take good pictures..so don't judge me on looks alone and I won't do the same. But i feel having a profile picture is a good start. I've love to know why guys won't post a picture....I just don't get it. On a first date, I would enjoy going somewhere quite to talk. Just to get to know one another to see if there is any chemistry and find out more about one another. This could be over a cup of coffee (my favorite is Dunkin...but Starbucks is fine too!) or a glass of red wine or taking a long walk. I'm practical and if there is no connection why waste each others time!
