About Me

I love music and laughing and kindness. I like being around expressive, caring, and fun loving people. Throw in some interesting food and maybe a glass of wine, and I'm feeling pretty open and happy.I like the idea that we are all historians, and that our stories are nuanced with lore, myth, truth and drama. I want to hear your story. I'll like it if you want to hear mine.I'm independent, and support myself; I live within my means; at 35 I divorced, and with three school aged kids at home, put myself through college and earned a bachelor's then a master's degree. I still use my fingers to count.I want to be a wife again some day. Music: (My one true salvation.) I'm currently on a Mark Knopfler jag. (It's lasted about 14 years.;Belief." I want to crawl up inside it and stay awhile. It's everything I want in a song.; I'm recently into roasting vegetables of all kinds; but sometimes I just need a bit of rare steak and a glass of wine; I'm told I'm evil when I get too hungry. I love everything there is to love about fresh limes. I have an expensive watermelon habit, and I eat a lot of Tzatziki these days. I make a chocolate cake that, once people have eaten it, they wake up screaming for in the night. I use it to get my way sometimes. Hobbies: I love to take pictures of people, mostly people that I love. I also love to make videos for my family and friends. I've gotten my hands on old home movies and videos and made some neato photo/video tributes. Makes me happy. I also like to walk with music blaring in my earphones. Thrift store shopping is fun; my little sister is the queen of the thrift shop find; we've had the best time tearing about L.A. from one Goodwill to another, and have found really great stuff. I also love decorating my house, feathering the nest; comfort and beauty in my world matter.My children and grandchild are the lights of my life. My granddaughter is five years old; she is bright, funny, wise and beautiful. I completely love being her Yia yia.I love good communication, and value quality over quantity. Talking that's mindful, interested, and involves exploring ideas really does it for me. Talking isn't the end all and be all of good communication---silence is important, too. I'm most drawn to people who understand their history and want to tell their story. I most enjoy the company of people who aren't afraid to lean into the full range of their emotional experiences, and know how to own who they are. A shared sense of community creates endless possibilities for doing things for and with each other. I have the best time with people who share an interest in what's happening around the community and the world, and get involved.I'm sensitive to unbalanced power in relationships. "Shoulder to shoulder" resonates immediately. When equality is present, then the good stuff of friendship, attraction, intimacy and connection is there, too. Without it, all that pesky "drama" and "game playing" goes on, and even you "easy going, laid back"True story: I'm considering photoshop deception to contrive some dazzling photos of me water skiing, zip-lining, biking, hiking, and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro... A word to the wise: not all chicks like "chick flix." Also, I'll ask you to kindly send me a message with a few lines if you are interested. I don't really check the "interested" or "so and so wants to meet you," list. Eating together is always a good start. Live music maybe? Something outside. I like to see how people interact with the world around them. A festival or other community event could be a great way to get to know each other, and share some laughs. I'm noticing that some people want a less date-like meet up to see if there's chemistry. I'm totally okay with that, too. We like what we like, right?

    I'm a great listener and very easy to talk to. I'm looking for someone who can communicate openly and freely with me. Honesty is a must, I trust someone until they prove me wrong. I'm a water baby and love anything that is water related and just about any kind of music, especially country and classic rock. I am a certified personal fitness trainer, but I am still a work in progress and try to eat healthy but chocolate is still my favorite food group :-) I'm not a beauty queen nor am I a super model, but I am happy with who I am and where I am in life. My son is grown and lives his own life now, and like everyone else, I am very proud of him and his accomplishments. I would like to find someone to share life's adventures with, who loves to laugh and enjoys what life has to offer. The past is just that, the past, I am living for the future and look forward to what that might bring. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, then please message me and let's get to know each other a little better. UP DATE:If you are married or in a relationship please don't waste my time or yours. First dates should be easy, not much of a coffee drinker, but I do enjoy a cold beer or a glass of wine some where we can actually hear ourselves talk and get to know each other better. If we decide to have a second date great, if not then we each made a new friend :-)

    I am a good hearted, fun loving lady who loves people and I love to enjoy myself whether it is going to a get together at a friend's house, occassionally going to a club or just sitting home with a good movie. I love the beach and expect that someday I'll have a little cottage on the shore somewhere... or at least that's a dream of mine..I would love to have a friend to hang out with, to talk with, see a movie, to just be with. I miss having someone whose life revolves around me and mine around theirs...within reason of course. A buddy and a friend first and foremost. A life is meant to be shared. I am hoping to find someone who is also tired of being alone.. But would like to be alone together.. To have dinner together .. spend an evening , doing nothing.. but being together, talking about our day... I've learned that a long distance relationship just doesn't work.. unfortunately. It just makes it easier to get together and dicover one another.I'm starting to think people are on here to browse or get some action.. I really hope to find a person sometime in the near future that is looking for someone to spend some time with.. Not looking for endless chat.. can't really get to know a person (or can you) and what they're all about until you get to meet in person ana spend some time together.I love music.. all kinds.. depends on the situation or the mood. Iove it all but country is probably my favorite.. it makes me happy. Not the twangy country but the hard country rock .. yeah.. even the twangy country. I love live bands..again doesn't matter the genre.. I love almost anthing I like to be spontaneous and am open to try most(almost)anything once.. ` That sounds like fun` is my mantra lol.. I am a bit on the shy side but once we get to know each other my bashfulness will soon disappear. Chances are it will be up to you to you to initiate first contact.. Old school you know.. lolI love to laugh, and sometimes people don`t get my sense of humour.. a bit on the dry side... tears streaming down my face and they will be just looking at me with their head tipped to the side saying `I don`t get it`.. Coffee, farmer's market, drink,movie, whatever we decide on together
