About Me

Ok. . time for an update! ***Have been on here a little while, and have had some meetville encounters. . . I admit some have been more like Shark encounters, you know, the kind where you just need to steel your nerves, be very still, and hope it swims away quickly leaving your hide intact!! lol Not all have been bad, and I have met some very nice guys that have remained my friends. . .but still haven't met "the one"!I guess, from what is becoming a common complaint on here from you guys, that you are running into a lot of old pics, liars about body type, etc. . . Well, allow me to say, in all HONESTY and to hopefully ease your mind. . my pics are not old, and I'm ht/wt proportionate. . although most every woman will tell you they need to lose a few pounds, but I am certainly not a BBW! I can tell you my pants size, if it makes you feel better too! lolIt's frustrating, to say the least, when you reach out and contact someone, and you hear nothing in return. I for one, would much rather get a quick "not interested", than to wait and wonder. . I mean we are all adults on here right? All for the same reason, to find someone we can connect with. I realize one persons beauty is another persons beast. . and we are all, for the most part, visual beings! But COME ON!! If I *** be man enough to send a reply. .even if its "no thanks". . .and I promise to do the same!! Ok. . enough with the soap box. . .stepping down now!! lolI'm a happy, down to earth, strong, independent, self sufficient, loving, woman! Whew . that was a mouthful!! I am not broken...looking for someone to fix me, just missing the connection with a partner...nor am I dependent on anyone for my happiness or well being. I would like to find someone that I can "click" with, on every level. Not a clone, that would be boring, but someone to compliment my personality, and I his. . not control it or try to change it! I have a great sense of humor and would prefer to laugh my way through the rest of my life! "Strong" doesn't mean hard or cold either. I am a very warm, giving, loving person, who would do anything in my power to help those I care about (and even some I don't!). My family and friends are very important to me, and although my boys are grown and have their own lives, it doesn't stop me from still being. . . a Mom! I can't say, at my age, that there hasn't been baggage, I'm sure we have all had some . . but I left mine at the airport...with no return address on it and filed no claim form!!! I now live the most drama free life I can manage!! That's not to say there is and never will be any, I think that is kind of unrealistic, but I seriously believe its how you handle and react to it that makes the difference. I don't let it control or consume me! Find the solution, deal with it, and move on. . . then you can look back at it and laugh. . and there is no better medicine than that!Very "hands on" affectionate, and intimacy, at some point, is important to me. I'm comfortable in most any situation. . . dressed up or dressed down! Although I must admit I am more often found in the "dressed down" mode! Love a BBQ with bonfire at home, or a night out dancing with friends. I like all kinds of music, however, my main venues are Country and Classic Rock. I love the outdoors.. . whether its simple yard work, or the wind in my hair on a motorcycle, boat, or a horse and almost everything in between! If its outdoors, I'm usually up for it!! Love the water and beaches (may have been a fish in a former life!! lol). . or . . Have always liked camping, but at this stage, I don't think I could handle sleeping on the ground anymore. . would have to be more along the lines of an RV. . or Hotel! lol I like most sports, but my favorite is Hockey. I have my favorite teams that I've been true to my whole life. . .but don't begrudge anyone their mistake in rooting for others. . LOL!!!At this point in my life, I would like someone beside me to share in all life has to offer. . . good, bad or ugly!P.S. Just so you know, I work a lot and I'm trying to find balance. You know what they say. . "All work and no play. . "I would hate to know my headstone reads only "Beloved and Missed. . . Employee"!! Anyone think they can help me out with this?? LOLAnything else I may have forgotten. . . just ask. . .No secrets here, and nothing to hide!! BTW. . . I'm not very photogenic, never have been . . .so I tend to try to stay out of pics. . . everyone takes them while I am not paying attention, otherwise they wouldn't get them at all!!! I have, however, been told many times that I look much better in person, than my pics. . . don't know if that helps at all or not. . . just sayin!! Not a vanity thing. . just facts! The first is actually more of an encounter. . with the First Date to be determined! So. .I'm thinking maybe a picnic. . or rather a brown bag lunch . . . at the picnic table . . . behind the police station. . .right by the surveillance camera!! LOL Just kidding!! I really meant in the lobby!! lol

    I am a fair-weather, solar powered kind of girl. I am happiest on the coast somewhere with my toes in the sand, soaking up the rays, listening to the water caress the shore. I currently work in the medical field and recently finished the RN program; for a long time this took up most of my time. Now that I have my license I can breathe a bit easier and also have time to pursue other interests.I was lucky enough to be able to be a stay at home mom for 20 years and then decided to go to Nursing school. So now the fun begins!! My children are all over the globe so I have no reason not to venture out. In my free time I enjoy checking out new restaurants, exploring new places. I keep busy with my hobbies and traveling. My kids were/are band geeks so I listen/enjoy to most everything.I'm looking for someone that loves to cook, travel and not afraid to try some new things together as well as share the new chapters in the lives of our kids. Don't be afraid to say Hi, I don't bite (at least not on the first date)...Renee Surprise me... I am way too predictable, I'm currently trying to reside outside the box so to speak. I would typically like flowers, opening the door, fancy dinner.

    I\'m fun, a little old fashioned, happy, sentimental and sweet to a fault…I dislike traffic and long lines. Look for someone to be simply nice and a good person, I don’t have high expectations.
