I am first and foremost a Mom to, two very active and amazing young ladies. Life can turn busy sometimes, so we consciously make sure we balance life out with some down time too.I have many interests but I would have to say music and travel are at the very top of my list. I love all types of music, and doubt that you will ever catch me in a moment when it is not playing in the back ground. Live shows in small venues can make me connect with a whole new genre I never even knew I was interested in. I love stumbling onto new sounds. I am a bit of a travel junkie. I have made it a personal goal to work hard and save, so that I am able to travel twice a year (once with kids and once without) So far I am making it happen! I am generally a happy person, I put friends and family at the top of my priority list, but I am also keeping a space open to allow room for relationship priorities. I am a firm believer that once a decision is made to commit to someone you should be prepared to jump in with both feet. No “one-footers” please :)The online scene is not my ideal way to meet people (I prefer the real world) but I have had positive results from this site. I won’t rule out the possibility that it could work again. I am not looking forward to weeding through the “not-so-good stuff” to get to the one person that makes it all worth it in the end, but HEY who ever said dating was easy? I have met some very nice people along the way, and on the flip side of that I have also met some very …uhhh… “interesting” people too. I only ask for an honest online presentation, if you are who you say you are, then at the very least we will have an enjoyable time and can see where it goes from there. I have zero tolerance for false fronts, and I hope that you do too. I am often asked about what I am looking for? I try not to limit myself to a certain type. I never know what feature or characteristic of a person may strike me as attractive...but believe me, when it hits me, I know. Humour and height (I am 5'9" and a half without shoes) will always grab my attention, but a great smile and classy conversation will keep it. I don’t put too much emphasis on what you do for work, but I do think that it is important that you work at something. Trust and communication are what I feel make or break a relationship…please come prepared to work towards both. The only up front deal breaker I will not budge on is “addiction” IF ALCOHOL, DRUGS, GAMBLING, “SURFING ONLINE”,OR ANY OTHER UNHEALTHY HOBBIES ARE HOLDING YOU BACK IN LIFE…please correct those on your own…there is no need to share with others.Also, IF you are on here to hide behind a computer screen, and not be accountable for how you speak or treat a person ... honestly, please don't interupt my happiness. ***, may I suggest you use that waste of both of our time to visit the "Self Help" section...just sayin.Hopefully this gives you a bit of insight into who I am, and why I am here (for the right reasons). I will leave it there for now and assure you that there is a lot more to talk about. Drink and an appetizer works for me!

Hmm..I think many of us have a tough time trying to describe ourselves in a paragraph...Kinda like writing a resume for our hearts. I'm a single self employed, self-sufficient professional with no kids and nothing really tying me down. I've worked hard for a long time and done quite well achieving some professional goals so now its time to make a little more time to get out and enjoy what life has to offer.Lets face it..being alone just really really sucks. Its not what were designed for. Kelowna seems like a very vibrant place which sure has many wonderful people. I'm very eager to meet some new people and make some new friends. I'm a happy outgoing person,fit, and take pride in looking after my health and my body.; the lower mainland. I like to work out and stay fit,work on my home,spend time with my pets. I love my truck and I'd like to find a camper for it one day and use it to explore the province and go camping in some wonderful wild scenery in different parts of bc. I'm very easy going and like to just take things as they come. Im not much into internet chatting. I much prefer real conversation with a friendly smiling face :)Looking to meet someone stable who is here with the intent of developing an ongoing passionate and productive relationship in the Kelowna area.NOT looking casual dating, NSA FWB, encounters, hangout, For a first date I think the most important part is just to talk and get to know each other. I'm a very relaxed person in that regard and just love talking to and learning about the person I meet. Hmmm..I think going for a couple drinks is always a pleasant start. A place thats quiet where we can really talk.I have a great sense of humour.. a bit dry at times, totally off beat at others..so I tend to keep things pretty playful if the chemistry allows. I think its best to let things just unfold naturally..just like life

Just sayin'About me: Inquisitive, impulsive smart-ass looking for same to share sarcastic comments and ride shotgun on last minute road trips.While I’m not way out there on the edge, even at this stage of life I lean more toward the side of edgy than otherwise. Therefore, I tend to be more compatible with people who have a bit of grit themselves. While I’m not adverse to being outside (especially road trips), I prefer more cerebral, or at least inside, pastimes. I read a fair bit, enjoy watching HBO type series and documentaries. Much of my social life is taken up with good food and a few drinks (or the occasional tequila inspired singalong) with my circle of friends. It would be nice to have an escort for local cultural events, from noisy live music to gallery openings – I don’t get out to them enough for my liking.Laughter in my life is essential. I am a compulsive wisecracker.Love my job, but not a workaholic by any stretch of the imagination. I'm not rolling in dough but I have a comfortable income, which is enough - I'm not all that interested in the ceaseless acquisition of material goods. thanks and congrats for having the patience to get this far! Now my wish list:Smarts are VERY important - I'm a bit of a brain groupie. While it's not a deal breaker, you've got at least some university level education and list at least one intellectual pursuit in your profile to raise my interest. You should be into brainy people yourself. Seriously brainy people. I do the Sunday NYT crossword. In pen. It would be nice to share - I can do the across clues and you can do the down ones.Sense of humour is a MUST. Silly is good. So is sarcasm. Honesty, integrity and a keen interest in the world around you is essential as well.My politics are quite left leaning , so if you even thought about voting conservative, we’re not going to get along. I’m a wishy washy atheist, so if religion is your bag, sorry but I can’t see us connecting.Appearance? Height doesn't matter much. Seriously - Bald guys too - Yul Brenner was one hot fella! You know how to dress yourself, which means you own a suit for special occasions and recognize that fleece and running shoes are for outdoorsy activities only. A little panache is always appreciated.Sorry, under 50's only (in my head I'm still 25). Thanks for getting through all this! If I've peeked at your profile, or added you to fav's and don't message, that's likely me leaving the ball in your court. :) (and if I've added you more than once, I'm not a crazy stalker, just have a scattered memory) Oh, and I can't stress this enough: If you're not wearing a shirt in your photos, thanks but NO thanks! Some things should be left to one's imagination. First date? I'm pretty flexible. Lecture? Sure! Tractor pull? You bet! See above re: Impulsive! Just a coffee date is fine too.Also, if the weather ever gets better, and you have a motorcycle, boy do you have my interest. Although I think that's a second date, not a first. :)
