About Me

The last fifteen percent required to complete this profile was painful!! And it WAS written nearly two years ago, so after taking a year sabbatical, I'll try to freshen it up a bit and bring it current, slowly, but surely. Besides myself being straightforward, I also appreciate honesty and directness, in others too. I strive to be laid back...and sometimes I succeed! I don’t like to get into many hurried habits, and try to give myself some quiet space to slow things down if needed. I find that I really enjoy many simple things in life and I tend to be very present and appreciate what I'm doing at that moment. The times I feel most alive and peaceful are when I'm doing most anything outdoors. Some of the things I love are: hiking, biking, running, gardening, camping (tent, dispersed), scrambling up and over rocks, jumping into and swimming in water and kayaking, My kids are in their early teens and are getting to that age where they often like to do their own thing alone or with their friends. Although I still enjoy and appreciate the times when we can be together, I'm sensing it's time for me to be doing some more things for me and it's a transition...This (dating) is PART of that process...um...adventure? :) I love to find humor around me. I enjoy getting others to laugh too and tend to find (and point out) the quirky things that go on every day. I won’t be found laughing at someone else’s expense, unless it’s my own. I'm usually pretty upbeat and look at the positive side of things.) and usually try to give them the benefit of the doubt. I hope to find this deference in someone else, that is a tendency to not be too critical of others.I’ve always enjoyed learning new things or exploring new areas of thought and asking questions like, ‘why do people/societies/kids (etc.) do the things they do?’ I’m not a Chatty Cathy by any means, but I do enjoy engaging in thoughtful discussions. I’m fairly open-minded, although it might take a bit of time to wrap my mind around certain ideas. I tend to see both sides of most situations. Nothing is Black or White to me, only many shades of Grey. I’m glad of this, but at the same time, that means I can be slow and thoughtful when making decisions. But...spontaneity is enjoyed by me as well!I think I'm in a good space right now and look forward to meeting others (or one "other"), but honestly, I'm a bit apprehensive as well. It's been a long time (a couple of decades!) since I've dated much, so a little nervous and excited, all rolled into one!. I feel it's hard to really tell what someone's like from their profile (but I do get a kick out of reading some!). Probably meeting a time or two, is a better gauge as to what type of a connection we may or may not have together. I’m looking forward to a connection, when the right person comes along. And who knows,...it might be you.

    I live a vibrant life on the coast, doing, creating and sharing. I've thoughtfully created a positive full life. I love to be outdoors by the sea, but also cherish down time in my home. Busy career with nonprofit work that means a great deal to me. I live a healthy lifestyle and love exploring this amazingly beautiful place we call home.While I enjoy a robust career, home has my heart: working in the garden nurturing green growth and blossoms, in the kitchen preparing something fresh and organic, to share with neighbors or guests. I prefer men who value communication and sincerity. Accustomed to being treated like a lady doesn't lessen my independence. I adore being looked after and having someone to share with. I believe intimacy evolves over time with connection and sharing. No serial dating here, I'm a one man kind of woman who truly believes life is richer when it's shared in love and connection.Uber feminine, tall, well put together and love being a woman. I'm a heavy hour glass so if it's Barbie you want, wouldn't be me. I'm soft, literally and figuratively. Well read, well traveled, try to live my faith, give back and seldom look in the rearview mirror. I prefer the company of men who are convicted in their beliefs, live their principles and love life. I am blessed with friends of many different walks of life. They all share one philosophy: fundamentally good people practicing the golden rule. How we treat one another matters. If you have a simpatico mindset - I want to hear from you.You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”— First meeting should be brief and to the point. First date - romance, time and space to share, sip, laugh and connect.

    Wow - where do I start -- How do you summarize who I am, what I want, and my goals and inspirations in a text box? LOLBut here it goes.I am an IT Project Manager for a SW firm and I love my job. While my job is good, it does not define me.. I would define myself as independent, caring, passionate, and I strive to be kind. Most people say I am warm, happy and love to laugh.I think that it's a woman's job to walk with her man and being there when he needs me, and I would expect the same. I am fairly self sufficient, but I am looking for someone that I want to spend Saturday night hanging out, going to sporting events, concerts, plays and over all fun times, and then can get up on Sunday for brunch and a day in the park.I would love to find someone that I want to talk to first thing in the morning, and the last thing before you go to sleep. While I think love is mutual and reciprocal, I want someone who loves me for me, and my dog and cat. My dog is an extension of me, and if we have issues with animals, I am probably not the right girl. At most I had over 8 animals including 4 horses, a donkey, 2 dogs and 3 cats.... In my spare time, I enjoy fine dining, as well as just hanging in the park with a picnic. I love great beverages. I am extremely loyal to my friends and family. I enjoy running 5k's, as well as long bike rides. Maybe someday I can get a mini-triathlon under my belt. I love to travel - and am hoping to go to India soon. Let's just meet for a beverage, talk for hours, and take it from there...
