After that many years of 14 hour days balanced with raising 3 kids, I figured I deserved 6 months off - haha! I never realized how many hours are truly in a day to explore and engage and discover until I had so many of them free to work with! Perhaps you may be the one to help me (and us) find ways to fill them!And yes, all of my pictures have been taken within the last ***months. I always win the "guess the age" game at the amusement parks - my kids love me for it -smiles (with a special shout-out to my genes!)I've traveled the world but will be the first to admit I got the luxuries of flying business class for free being married to a major airline pilot for 19 years. That, my dear friends, was the one perk that kept me hanging on for so long, when I probably should have bailed a decade ago! Nothing like a $6K business class round trip to Japan or Thailand for just $18 in taxes !!I believe in the power of laughter and hugs to make life less stressful. You may find me to be a bit of a chatterbox, but I can assure you I never just prattle on about nonsensical stuff....my brain is chock full of information and tidbits I have gleaned over the years from my appetite for knowledge. That sometimes comes in handy like back in ***when I was one of the very first contestants on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.I workout most days and enjoy not only the energy it gives me, but the positive outlook on life and keeping one step ahead of my chronological age in the health department! Someone to whom their health and physical fitness is important is a big plus with me.- but recognizing the value of getting your body moving and how that contributes to both physical and mental health is important.One of the things I have found most elusive after my last 21 years with a person who couldn't be genuine and vulnerable with me, is, true love. I know that sounds like I am looking for a fairy tale, and that's not it at all. But I have witnessed friends of mine in couples, in both long-and short-term relationships, who display the beautiful give and take, and genuine MUTUAL love and affection, that eluded me all those years. Like Lou Gramm of Foreigner sings " I want to know what love is. I want you to show me..." Are those difficult shoes to fill? Not necessarily....you tell me... Nothing ventured ...nothing gained ... As traditional as a dinner and a movie, or as adventurous as bungee jumping or a day at Universal riding the Hulk Coaster 6 times!A walk on the beach barefoot sounds nice too ....it's as simple or as involved as two people agree it should be ...

- what an incredible vacation!!! Independent and self-sufficient. Love music, all kinds. Looking for a friendship then we can go from there. Love to do anything outdoors, love football and can play a mean game of pool. I can curl up on the couch to watch a great movie or spend all day outside playing. Something simple to see if we are compatible

You know the smart, kind of shy girl staring out the classroom window in high school, the one no-one noticed until she got the lead in the school musical? That was me then, and in many ways, it's still me now. For years, I've been learning how to shine onstage, and then retreating to the comfort of some hot chocolate, a good book, and maybe a snuggle.I have three boys in their teens; they are a big part of my life, and we still enjoy activities together, such as laughing together at YouTube videos, Scouting, making music (or just listening to it), or spending time poking tide pools at the beach. Love me, love my kids (or at least be willing to get used to them!) Professionally, I'm half-way through a master's degree at Royal Roads, looking for some work that will put the future MA to good use, and exploring ways to make the world a better place. I don't expect you to share exactly what I believe spiritually, but it would be great to know that you consider meditation and having a faith community a good trait. I'm not evangelical - my leanings are liberal/progressive/universalist. My faith gives me the energy and idealism to believe that the world can be saved.- sometimes running the same routes if I am into running (the urge comes and goes, lol). I want to do more lightweight camping and getting into the mountains. I'm car-less, and walk or ride my commuter-type bike most places.I also really enjoy the following "in-town" activities - And you? I often fall for the smart, shy guys, but you don't have to be a PhD. You've got an idea of what you are really good at, and it shows in the pride you take in your work -- or hobby . And you're generous in spirit - you're the guy who shovels the driveway of the old people next door. You love to be with your kids, if you have them. You are organized, but not anal about it :-). Bonus points if you can play an *** everything works out, you'll find I'm very affectionate/sensual, communicative, and into spending time together being romantic. We both know that the first date isn't a date. It's to make sure that neither of us is advertising falsely, or harbouring psycho beliefs ;-). The first "real"-- or maybe a movie, with Siskel and Ebert-like discussion afterward over a beer or a single malt. Or renting kayaks and paddling around the Gorge.
