About Me

I guess I'm a "treehugger" why did they make me do that? Avid recycler would be better...I'd like to say that I am ridiculously optimistic and (almost always) wake up happy. I enjoy life, I eat healthy food and hope to go back to school to get my Master's degree in the next few years. I teach elementary school, which is demanding but fun. I used to travel but for now my focus is on work and home...I get to play more in the summer... I am very liberal-politically and spiritually, don't watch a lot of TV and get my news from NPR. I would love to find a man who helps motivate me to balance work and play, gets my wicked sense of humor and is emotionally/financially stable (at least relatively). Good chemistry is a must. I'm old enough to know what I like and still very much interested in adventures. I have an 8 year old son and a son who is ***grown and gone). They are the icing on the cake so it's important that the man I meet has a decent sense of family. I have high hopes but what the hell? Might as well put it out there... A good first date would be out for tea/coffee, dinner or a drink. I like movies,but not for a date. I would prefer to meet someone in a peaceful but public place.

    ove is worth the distance but you have to be willing to travel the extra mile and you have to love to travel.... Since my children are grown and all married, my flexibility to travel/move is wide open.Please note: I am currently separated from my husband. He is active duty military and we were stationed in Germany. After an 8 year marriage, the Army ERODED me back to the states after me and him agreed it was time to move forward with a divorce. We have been living apart since January BUT we remain FRIENDS and contact each other every once in awhile to check on each other and just say hello as he remains in Germany. And to answer the many questions I get, NO, we won't be working things out. This was a mutual decision and we both are happy where we are now in life.Starting a new chapter in my life and adding tons of adventures. I am far from being ready to just sit in a rocking chair and watching life pass me by. I love adventures. I also love at times to put in a movie, turn out the lights, lay on the couch with a blanket curled into each other. I love theme parks, roller coasters and any other ride that will make me laugh with fear. I love to camp, go for long rides on motorcycles and try new things (want to sky dive next). When I get older I want to look back and say "WOW, I can't believe I did that" *** saying "Gee, I wish I had done that"... You know, we always list the wonderful things about us. But if we were are all that and a bag of chips with no quirks why are we on here then? So, here is my bad/quirks from A to Z right off the batt:A. I don't always put the lid back on the toothpaste. B. I like the toilet seat down after a male uses it. It drives me nuts if it is left up. C. I am a very picky eater. If I don't like it, I am not going to eat it. D. I don't always feel like putting on makeup and getting all "dolled" up. Sometimes, I just like to go with my hair up in a ponytail and no makeup.. E. I hate to do laundry. Its the folding and putting away that I dread. So when I do the laundry, you may hear me singing "Just a Spoonful of Sugar Makes the Medicine Go Down". F. I have the tendency to say what comes up. I can be blunt but have tamed it down. G. I never learned how to whisper that great. H. I do not have the perfect "body". I have just recently started back to the gym and getting back in shape.I. I catch myself sometimes trying to control situations that don't need to be controlled. I have come a long way in working on that and continue to. J. I stay in consistent conflict as to whether the toilet paper on the spindle should go on top or under. K. BIG ONE: IF your first message to me contains your phone number and/or personal ***, I WILL NOT RESPOND BACK TO YOU... I mean, come on, who gives out their telephone to a complete and total stranger?L. ANOTHER ONE: You are on a dating website to find someone, so why do people put pictures of themselves with girls hanging all over them (for the men) and vice verses for the women? Seeing that doesn't make me think "OH I want to meet him" but *** opposite cause it makes me think "player"... But that is just me...M: I sometimes type too fast that when I go back to reread after I have sent something, I hang my head in shame as I realize that I left words out or misspelled words. Being in the profession I am, that is not acceptable so I have grown use to wanting to be grammatically correct. So don't be surprised if you see a message from me to correct my errors. LOL N. When I get upset, I get quiet. Don't expect me to say anything for moment. Take this time to gather your belongings and go hide for a little bit. LOL (Just kidding, or am I?) O. I have to make up my bed every morning or I feel like the bedroom is in disarray. But at the same time, I argue with myself on why I do it if I am just going to get right back in it later... P. I can be sarcastic at times and sometimes I feel bad about it and others I don't. Q. I take a lot of pictures of myself not because I am stuck on myself, but because I want options and to see how I look for the day. After all, pictures don't lie. R. I am a texter. Yep, I am much better texting than I am talking on the phone. Have been told I am a serial texter. ??? Sad, but true. S. I always watch ho

    *** think it is hillarious that someone who actually READS my profile will send me a message to meet me that says they are NON-religious. Do any of you actually read my profile?? I hope that ***brings you all what you are looking for... and I hope it brings me the right man who can read! Enjoy***This is always a hard part.. selling myself.. my friends would tell you that I am the most amazing, funny and devoted person ever, so genuine and kind to a fault. I guess I could agree, haha! I have been a single mom since ***. Its been very challenging and exhilarating making these boys into awesome men! I am a great mom and love my boys unconditionally. I have had many losses in my life and once I care about someone they are forever threaded to my life. I am a total people person. I think that I am funny, loud and crazy, but I am shy and quiet a lot also. My heart has been broken and shattered and I am very guarded due to that. I come off a little bull headed and very sarcastic, but if you take the time to get into my bubble you will see that I am actually pretty awesome! Wow, sounds a little conceited at this point.. huh?? I am so NOT! I keep busy as a volunteer at church and the community, I am a nanny, babysitter, house cleaner, skill builder and full time student. I just started going to the gym to get in better shape. I sorta put my own life on hold while raising my boys and now my youngest is 18, so Mom needs to find a new claim to fame! I adore children, I teach a kindergarten class at church. I am quite involved at my church, I have attended the same church since ***working in the youth program, children's, infants and pretty much any where they want me. **my youngest will be 20 soon, oldest is 24. Our church got taken over, so I am at a new one now** (it will not let me rewrite above)I like tall men, like 6' and taller, who give nice hugs, good smiles, like to laugh, Christian, easy going, like to be homebodys as much as go out..... I dont know.. if I knew I would have already found him..Well, I dont know what else to say, but my life is an open book so ask me if you want to know something else! I love God and love people and do what I can each day to make a difference in the lives of others!DISCLAIMER:: As the baby of 5 in my family, I do not know how to "share", I will never be the "other woman", please pass me bye if you are married or otherwise attached. I do not compromise my religion, morals or my integrity. Just keep on searching! Somewhere that can end quickly if it needs to, or go for hours if it is enjoyable.. in my town so that I have safety nets set up..
