I am a woman, a mother, and successful career professional who is in love with life, the warmth of the sun on my skin, and the beauty of nature. I maxed out my retirement at my job with 34 years of creditable service and I retired as of July 1, ***. While I do think I can adjust to this new lifestyle, I expect it to be temporary and do intend to return to work until my youngest son is through college. For now I'm decompressing, having some fun, doing some house projects (yes, I'm quite handy for a lady) and eventually I'll seek employment again. I'm not a lady who sits idle, so for me busy is good and my guy needs to be able to keep up the pace.I thrive on soaking up the sun, love digging in the dirt to see what flowers I can grow or landscaping project I can undertake. I enjoy live music, sports, almost anything that takes me outside, arts, traveling, family time, fine dining, casual entertaining, the beach and the mountains. The beach recharges me and time at my mountain house provides down time, fresh air and is always a nice weekend get away. In ***I was introduced to the fun of couples dancing and came to enjoy East & West Coast Swing, and a few other dances. If you enjoy couples dancing, you get bonus points and if you love swing, then double points for you, as I really do want to dance regularly again.Having lost loved ones, I know how fragile life can be. I value life, family, honesty, health. I try to be positive, make the most of each moment, eat healthy, exercise and work hard at everything I do. I made the switch to a vegetarian diet June ***. I value both organic and vegan diets, but am far from those diets at this point. I have no expectations of a vegetarian partner, but I do want a partner who will encourage me to exercise as I continue my journey to a healthier lifestyle. I work hard to remain at my ideal weight, am far from perfect and don't seek perfection, but I'm not attracted to men who are over weight. Therefore, I seek a slim, toned or athletic individual, not someone significantly over weight.I am emotionally and financially stable, so I don't "need" but do "want" a relationship. The quality man I seek should be of similar age, and understand that with a 17 year old son, I am first a mom. While dating, I hope to meet someone with whom I can eventually build a trusting relationship with a view toward an eventual long term exclusive relationship. That having been said, I seek a man who is happy, makes me laugh, values nutrition, health, shares values, pleasures, respects me and is a true gentleman. I want my partner to know how to dress when we go out, to know and use manners, open doors for me and his reassuring arm on me should give me that, "I am his his lady" feeling. Don't be mistaken, he should have enough bad boy in him to cause me to smile and shake my head in amazement at times. A beginning with physical attraction, common interests, friendship, laughter, respect and trust should be a great foundation for a solid friendship and potential relationship. My children include a married daughter, a son age 21 and a son age 17, who have always been the center of my world. My daughter graduated college, works and gave our family a beautiful child Nov ***. My oldest son is a Senior at UGA this fall (Go Dawgs!) and my youngest son is a Junior in high school. As I reflect, their childhood days have passed at lightening speed. I'm enjoying the last couple of years with a son still home, yet beginning to consider and embrace the many transitions ahead, this new phase of life....retirement, returning to the work force for a second but brief career, and the youngest son eventually leaving the nest.I am a woman with many skills,enjoy order, a well maintained yard and home. I'm comfortable in jeans/shorts and a "T", but also have an assortment of little black dresses, heels and jewelry to dress up and join you on the town. I love concerts, dancing, live music, or a quiet evening at home with my man sharing a beer by the pool or a bottle of wine as we make dinner. I want to meet my new best friend, and eventual long term partner. We are not all going to have that essential chemistry or be partners, but I will try to respond to those who contact me, for everyone deserves words and acknowledgement.I never planned to grow old alone and I still don't; However, I won't settle, so this search seems to be long and ongoing. Thanks for reading my profile. God's speed on your journey and may good health and happiness be abundant in your life as we each search for that one person who may become our life partner. "It is a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best you very often get it". ~W. A coffee shop in the morning, a restaurant for lunch, an appetizer, a beer, a glass of wine, dinner, a frozen yogurt or a walk in the park. Anything goes as long as it affords both the opportunity to determine if we each wish to spend additional time together. Following us meeting, if we wish to see one another again, a first date could be anything we mutually decide. Surprise me and make a suggestion!

Worked in education for over the past decade, and walked away. Literally. Loved it for years, and then quit loving it too. I miss my students, but other then that I feel free to make choices in my life for the first time in a long time. Prior to education (K- Anyone unaware what that is, it is mining stocks that go out at pennies a share, shoot up to bucks, then you cash out! Good sh*tif you know what your doing.-we sent out all over the states, and Europe too! I probably met you back then! So my history is in mining stocks and education.... The FrayMaroon 5Music is food for the soul, I cannot imagine being without it... All of my relatives are back there, and I have a home back there and think about making the transition sometimes after 25 years in the northwest. My Great Grandfather helped start the town, and it would be good to get back to my heritage.-I grew up moving all over the United States and Europe, and was the only American girl in an all German school for 2 years, it was an experience! Sprechen sie Deutsche? My passion lies in art, music, writing, drawing, and photography. However, then again, I tend to attract to the opposite of myself, so you could be an inartistic scuba diver, and I would be smitten! I love and find essential a wicked sense of humor, I do not do boring well whatsoever!!.I would not say on here I am looking for love, a relationship, my next future ex, or the love of my life. But you know what-- stranger things have happened to us all. Everything happens for a reason, and if I made an awesome new friend, wonderful..if I met the guy I would be with the rest of this lifetime, wonderful. There is no way of knowing,.. it is all just what it is until it happens."I'm pretty, but Im not beautifulI sin but Im not the devilIm good but Im not an angel". . .;All a girl really wants is for one guy to prove to her that they are all not the same" -"Update": I have learned from friends that have been successful with online dating, that to write for awhile is a good thing. It is nice to establish a connection over some time online and then meet. By just looking at a picture, and wanting to meet that person, I do not see the difference between that and walking into a club, and being hit on. I am wanting something real, and for me running out to meet a guy right off the bat based on mutual lust is not the type of connection I want. There is alot of power in the written word, and the right man will know what I am talking about. I also will never give my cell phone number out until we know each other well, and have finally met. Past experiences have made me wiser! Please vote here: *** Gotta do this for the kid! Your. Ex's. House ! A remote rest-stop.lmao!Seriously, anywhere lovely to meet and greet~where your favorite refreshment is being served! I dunno about the going for a walk together thing, cuz knowing me I will trip and fall on my a***!! But if u have to do that, ok, ok!!.I think first meets are to see if the same feeling is there, that you may have gotten from writing, texting, talking. From there, I think you would just know ***and either way great to meet you!!If you don't look like your pictures~ you have to buy the drinks until you do! ; )
