About Me

I have decided to update my profile. We should all do that every once in a while shouldn’t we? Reexamine ourselves…So first let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a single mother of two wonderful teens that live with me 100% of the time ***cats). I recently went back to school and now work with special-needs children, which I really enjoy. However, I am contemplating going back to school in the fall to work towards a diploma. I am happy and in good spirits 99% of the time regardless of what life throws my way. I still consider myself a ‘happy endings’ type of person. I have a sarcastic sense of humor. I have been described as quirky and like the fact that, at times, I can be a big goof. I don’t mind laughing at myself and love to make others laugh. I am not afraid to make an ass of myself and consider myself a pretty confident person. I still sing Christmas Carols badly, eat chocolate, snore, and dance around the house (without good dance moves). I love to read, am a movie fanatic, enjoy cooking, and am trying to find the motivation to be a more active person. I am still very curious about life and think I look and act younger than I am.Here’s the main reason I wanted to update my profile. I’ve noticed a lot of people state that they don’t want someone with scars or emotional baggage. But doesn’t that just mean that you haven’t really lived or loved? I have scars, how can I not? At 42 I can say that I have loved and I have been hurt. This doesn’t mean I don’t want to try again, and it certainly doesn’t mean that I am not a trusting person. I still believe in true love. What I have noticed is that, as we get older, we tend to think our perfect match will be perfect from the get go and I’m not sure that’s realistic. We all have faults, no one is perfect. I have blue days, I don't yell often but it happens, my ass is bigger than I'd like it to be. Basically, I'm human. There are going to be things about me that annoy you. The question is, does the good outweigh the bad? Can you look past those idiosyncrasies, even get a chuckle out of them? I’m looking for a partner that will compliment me, not complete me. I am hoping for a mutually supportive, fun relationship full of romance, caring, tenderness, and laughter.I have been divorced for over ten years. While it was crushing at the time it was the best thing to happen to me. I have become a confident and capable woman in that time. It made me the woman I am today and a great mother. I am a catch (excuse the fishing reference)! So, all those scars and baggage help make us the person we are – and propel us to become the person we wish to be.I’m going to end with a quote by Marilyn Munroe, “I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.” And my best is pretty damn good!I don’t mean for this to sound materialistic but it has been an issue in the past so I will address it. I am a single mother supporting two children on my own. Finances are always an issue and I live on a very modest budget. I cannot afford fancy trips or expensive dates, not that I wouldn’t enjoy them. I just feel guilty that I cannot reciprocate. Many in my age range seem to be at a more comfortable place financially while I see myself as just getting started, or starting over. Hmmm, I'd like to start with a few *** phone calls and then we can chat about a get together, maybe a walk or coffee/tea?... We all know there has to be some kind of physical spark.

    ***Well I've been off here for a few weeks & I'm not so sure I'm going to stay much longer. I'm going to be starting classes in Oct & working towards making a change in my life. Not really sure how dating anyone is going to fit in unless it's the totally right situation for me. >>Starting to think that being on here is like hearing that horrible song "How much is that doggie in the window" looped over & over!!UPDATE** You lookin to upgrade? ;****New- seriously do not want to see your naked pics & I won't be sending any. C'mon really! I've barely been on here a week & already considering taking it down. I like to have fun & drink when I'm free but don't insult my intelligence with stupidity! Thanks now on to the real stuff. I like being with someone who makes me smile & likes to have fun. I like to sing & go for walks & chill out by a fire. I love music but mostly rock & country. Anything from Five Finger Death Punch to Jason Aldean. My kids come first in my life & if they don't like you then I won't either. I'm looking to go back to school & get out of retail hell within the next year if not sooner & want someone that isn't lazy or selfish. Somewhere with lots of people so its not so stressful & awkward.
