About Me

Well, the rebirth started when I made the conscious choice to improve my living situation, moved out, dropped 70 pounds in little more than a year (and counting), and found balance in my new life as a single mom of two great kids. I am interested in making acquaintances and see what happens. I'm honest and will be upfront with you - if I'm interested, I'll respond even if it's not immediate. I manage a busy single parent life so you'll need a little patience. If it’s meant to be, we’ll both know it, reach for it, make the effort and make a true connection, and that’s what I hope for - a fresh start to share this short life with someone who can reciprocate a fulfilling existence.Little 'bout me - I'm a clean cut gal who became a Navy wife, focused on college, career, and family. I'm a closet Sci-Fi geek with a silly side who sings to herself and enjoys painting, loves to swim, go for walks, and enjoy the occasional video game. I like to do a mix of indoors and outdoor activities that generally center around my kids and prefer to be active and productive so I feel like I accomplished something meaningful in my day. I'm an organized planner who adds in the spontaneous to keep life exciting and fresh. I dream of traveling to see more of the world and show my kids there is more to life outside our standard routine. I've been an executive in healthcare for many years so management is in my blood but I believe in life/work balance and time with my family is VERY important to me. And yes, even with weight loss, I'm still a curvy BBW. I expect more substance to a relationship than the physical but I get that attraction is key for both of us. The journey to my ideal size continues, but as I walk this path I know my worth and beauty inside and out. On the upside, I've been told recently I'm not as big as I seem to think the label states, but I don't think I'm just 'a few pounds' more than ideal either. My height hides alot - you'll just have to gauge for your self :-)As for you, I don't want to pre-define my 'dream' guy with a few choice characteristics because everyone's unique and cliché’s are a dime a dozen (pun intended), but a girl’s gotta have her standards. You must value true honor, honesty, communication, and respect, have a sense of humor, be self-motivated and even tempered. I am looking for someone who carries his own (want to be a partner, not your mother). You need to be strong and I’m not speaking physically, although being able to open the jar after I’ve loosened it up for you is a plus! I’m referring to strength of self, supportive, confident - do what it takes in good times and bad to get things done and still be sensitive and thoughtful to the events around you. I'm interested in a man who may do things I don't currently do, because I'm happy to explore new adventures for myself, and for my kids in appropriate situations. Speaking of kids, and this is a deal-breaker, you have to be ok with kids. There's nothing more sexy about a guy who can be all the things I've mentioned and still be the thoughtful teacher, a fun yet disciplined father-figure, especially if the kids are not his own blood. Understand as a single mom this sentiment is important: win my kids genuinely, want my kids truthfully, be a role model for the kids, and you're halfway into my heart! The other half is between you and I :-)If you feel I've peeked your interest to attract you socially, and we both can hit it off with a mutual (yet superficial) attraction based on a few photos, I welcome the opportunity to make your acquaintance. Best wishes for your search. We should keep it simple, meet for a coffee so we can chat and see if there is chemistry to continue.

    Hey there. I am a single mom of 2 teenages...thank you for your thoughts and prayers, lol, but honestly they are great kids. I am a pediatric nurse for a wonderful doctor and 100% love being a nurse. I am not the "bar" girl who wants to be drunk every weekend, I'm not into games, one night stands, or hooking up. I'm first and formost a mom and try to set an example for my kids. I'm at the point where I'm ready for something wonderful and everlasting. I'm a hopeless romantic and still believe in love after being hurt. I love anything from mudding to going to a play. I'm very funny if I must say so myself, educated, easy going, fun, caring, huge heart, and give 110% to a relationship. Please don't waste your time if a fling is all you are after...I stopped playing games in school.

    I am a single mom just moved into the area and do not know a lot of people. But I do love to make friends..I am a very happy go lucky type of person. Give me the beach and a book and I'm happy. Wake me up with a kiss good morning and ill smile the whole day long. Simple things make me over the moon.I love going to minor or Major League Baseball games but hate to watch it on tv. Ill be a chipper fan for life even w him retired. And I'll just go ahead and admit it. I've been a cowboys fan since I was 16. I'm not changing now. But I do like the colts and the steelers. In that order. I'm just ready for a slow relaxing life Lets take a picnic and go to the beach. Or take a bicycle for two. Maybe horseback riding on the beach or a slow dance on the pier.
