About Me

Where to start. Well, I guess at the beginning…I was born at a young age close to my mom (sorry, my bad sense of humor). We were adopted together. My parents have 13 grandkids, so I do come from a large family. I’m pretty close to all of them except my sister. (A story for another time)I’d like to think I’m a simple person. I’m not a materialistic person…meaning I’m satisfied with what I have. I own my home (well, the bank owns it and am trying to keep up with the payments….long story) been in my home for 6 years. I love animals and have 1 cat (had 2 dogs but had to put one down, he was almost 16, blind, deaf and peed everywhere and had to re-home my other dog of 10 years…again long story).I have 3 kids, my oldest daughter is 15 and a Junior (she will be doing running start this year…going to community college and getting her AA in addition to her high school diploma), my middle daughter is 12 and is going into the 7th grade and my youngest is my son and he’s 4. He’s my blessing in disguise. In ***I went back to school (for the second time…a story for another time) to get my AAS in Business Accounting. In June of ***I found myself very tired all the time and found out that I was pregnant. I had my son via c- I feel accomplished in knowing that despite the birth and divorce that I finished my goal and obtained my degree. I worked for 9 months in a job that I couldn’t stand, but had to stay there as it was my first job in 13 years (I was a stay at home mom for my girls). I was let go and a few months later I found the job I’ve been at for almost a year and a half. I’m an office manager/bookkeeper for a small company who teaches emergency management (basically teaches FEMA). I make travel arrangements…book hotels and rent cars for our *** don’t buy the flights, thank goodness. I order materials for the classes….student manuals, course papers, laminates…etc. I also do their books, putting my degree to good use. My job allows me to still be mom to my kids and is very flexible…I’m self employed.Some of my interests are quilting, although I haven’t done it in a while, fishing (salmon), camping, watching the Seahawks (BIG FAN!) and Mariners occasionally, and watching my kids do their activities. My oldest does color guard for her marching band (the flags at the front of the band); my middle was doing piano and is looking forward to doing track next year, and watching my son play soccer. He just started this year. All 3 of my kids played soccer but have moved on to other activities. I enjoy watching movies, however, haven’t been to the theater in a while. I don’t like going by myself. I believe the last movie I saw with my 2 oldest and their friends was the Hobbit. Good movie! My parents have a pool at their house and the kids and I visit it often in the summer. I enjoy walking, but wish I had a partner as it’s quite boring to go by myself. Take the kids you say?? I live on the out skirts of the city and not a lot of sidewalks and lots of traffic. Not really ideal for my little one. I try to keep a neat and tidy house, but with a 4 yr old, it’s hard sometimes. I try to get my kids to keep their rooms clean, but have failed. I don’t like clutter and it drives me nuts. I love music…Christian, 80’s love songs, country…I also love to ski, but blew my knee last year so until I can afford surgery, I’m sitting on the sidelines.I believe everything I have gone through over the years have brought me to where I am today. I’m a daughter of Christ. I strayed away from my faith which is when I met my (ex) husband. We were married at the local courthouse (our parents did not attend) and our marriage ended at the courthouse, 14 years later…LOL. After the birth of our oldest, I realized that we (mainly me) wanted our kids to grow up knowing Christ and the only way they would learn this, besides us teaching them, was to take them to church. We started attending the church where he grew up, but that only last a few years. We decided to try other churches, but he really never did, so I decided to take my daughter back to my home church. I have been there for the past 12 years. I’m involved with helping in the nursery every 5th Sunday. I try to attend every week, but don’t always make it. I would like to find a man who wants to be the leader of his family both spiritually and physically.I’m pretty much an open book; if you want to know anything…the adoption…the divorce…just ask. I will mention that I was not the one who wanted the divorce. My ex had 3 affairs and left when our son was 5 months old. I tried to make things work between us, lots of counseling with my pastor, but eventually had to let him go. I am a faithful woman who does not believe in cheating.Anyway, hope I haven’t bored you with my life story. May God grant you blessings.Couple more thing I'd like to add....One, if you are not a believer in Christ....please don't waste you're time. I probably won't respond.... Two, I'm not against moving...long distance relationships can work....if it's the right combination.... I'd say coffee somewhere and conversation, but am open to ideas.

    Woman. 45 years old. Zodiac sign: Capricorn.

    Looking for: man. In age: 42-52

    Well here I am again, giving this one more try. I stopped dating ***years ago to focus on my career, my children and myself. Now I am ready to give it another try. I love photography, dancing, going to the lake, boating, skiing, golfing (haven't played in a couple of years) and the movies. Huge movie buff. I love all kinds of music except extreme rap. Finding a man that is honest, trustworthy, honorable, romantic, and serious about finding a relationship is important to me. I am not looking to get married, but if I find love I am not opposed to it. Presently, I am just wanting to find someone that I can spend time with and that wants to spend time with me. Im too old to play games, and I am not looking to be someones weekend hookup when they feel the need. I would love to just have some adult conversation, enjoy one another's company, and see where it goes. If this sounds good to you then please *** All of my photos are taken within the past year. As I have read on many profiles, it seems to be an issue with some men and women posting photos that are ***years old. Some place we can talk, and get to know each other. I feel that when you are on a first date you need to be able to hear one another talk, and to be relaxed at the same time. Maybe sharing an appetizer, or getting a coffee. Currently Im not drinking, at least not for a few more months, getting a drink for me would be water.
