About Me

I am a determined and positive woman who values honesty tremendously. I always try to find the blessings in all circumstances in my life whether they be good or bad. I have found that what one suffers through, another can see a blessing of encouragement from which makes all of the hardships worth the challenge.My children are now 20 and 22 years old. They both still live at home with me. My son works and my daughter is a full-time student. We have a very loving and supportive relationship and are considerate of each others' feelings and opinions about things in general. I am very proud of the people they have become as it shows me I did "motherhood" right. :) Other than volunteer work, I really have not worked since before having them as I stayed at home with them to make sure I showed them and taught them the values I felt were important but, more importantly, I gave them all of the love and encouragement they could ever want. As for pets, I have a 4 lb Yorkie who is very spoiled and loved and sleeps on my bed. We had Guinea Pigs when the kids were small and just adored them also. We are NOT cat people. Not to offend anyone, but I don't want to fall in love with someone who will have to choose between me and his cat.I have been a diabetic since I was nine years old. I have been using an insulin pump for 8 or 9 years and had a kidney transplant in Dec of ***. A dear friend donated one of her kidneys to me...what a blessing loving friends are. We met on our first day of college and stayed close friends throughout the years since that time.I have long loved art and museums and travel although my travel has slowed down drastically over the last several years. I still have my passport but have not put it to use sadly. I also love baking and find when I am feeling a little sad, it makes me feel better to do some baking and share it with family or friends. I enjoy reading and sewing occasionally; mostly when I am in the mood. I like using watercolors as well but again, painting is something one has to be in the mood for. I am crazy about animals too and just love a zoo visit...just makes me smile. There is just no place more relaxing than a beach with soft sand and gentle lulling waves...I do love those island beaches. Bora Bora and an over-the-water bungalow is a dream vacation to me. But in my travels there are a few things I have not yet done and am hoping to do such as skydiving and going on a hot air balloon ride---any takers? haha So yes, I am adventurous but I am not one for hiking.i love my church family and am a member at New Horizons Church which has made my life so much happier these last 9 years. Being in a church where there is so much genuine acceptance and encouragement for being who you really are is refreshing and a true blessing. Therefore I try to go every week...it would be nice to someday find myself sitting with someone significant, feeling God's presence. My friends would describe me as edgy and fun-loving, straightforward and possibly opinionated but I am always respectful of the way others think so I will always agree to disagree as I think it is silly to get angry. Generally, people do not make me angry. What does make me angry is human injustice, racism, and being dishonored.I love love and I value spending time with my kids, my little dog, my parents, and my friends but I am hoping to find a good man out there who puts importance on a relationship with God as that has been the VERY thing missing in all of my past relationships. Because that chemical attraction is so important in a relationship, I would prefer to meet for coffee and dessert or a drink and appetizer somewhere for that first date. That way, we are not going to be tied into a long evening if after less than an hour or so we are aware that there is no attraction between us. An hour of conversation without the physical appeal would perhaps be a new friendship for us...or we each know we just don't share any common interests that are important to us.

    Looking for: man. In age: 46-56

    I work hard, have a successful and exciting career, and try to take good care of myself. I have studied and worked abroad and still seek adventures. I enjoy exercise, sports, hiking, music, travel, food, and animals, especially dogs. I try to be positive about life and have a very good sense of humor. I don't expect a man to be my entire existence. I value trust and understanding in a relationship. I like to do little things to show I care and strive to make others feel special. I am romantic, love surprises, and admire men who express affection through simple gestures. Coffee or a meal with good conversation and laughter.
