About Me

A little about me...Friends first, possibly more. I am curious, creative and resilient. I have many interests including gourmet cooking (and not so gourmet cooking, as a good southern style meal is still good eating), fine dining, wine tastings, technology geek (I built my own home theater including the PC that runs it) and I find pleasure in doing and thinking about all sorts of things.I am forever the optimistic, in fact if I am not being optimistic; you can surely bet that something is wrong and I need some consoling. I want first-hand experiences. I don't treat my personal life much different than my professional life, I like to be organized, thorough, responsible, ethical and respectful and above all I must enjoy it.I work in Information Technology and have worked at most of the major Healthcare corporations in Lake county. I have deep roots in my community and my career is important to me.About the one I'm looking for...If you are in line with my profile 100%, then we can have a beautiful life together with our combined friends and family. Maybe I could even borrow and plant kisses on any grandbabies you might have while I wait for those of my own, which I hope you will be as excited about too!Please note that the man I'm looking for should have non vanilla dominant characteristics. My business life has me being very dominant; I need that not to be the case in my personal life, ying and yang ;***I'd just like to add...I really am interested in folks within my same ethnic background, please I don't do interracial, nothing personal, just my preference. In addition I wish someone at my same profession level too.My Top Interests:Food, Wine & EntertainmentJust LOVE to cook. I am going to say that this includes entertaining and the enjoyment of good wine. To me this is the entire package. I love to make my friends, family and love happy and this is one of my favorite ways to get there :)Family and FriendsFamily and Friends are the most important element of my life. I am extremely social and Love to Live. If you do not 100% feel the same, and would not join me in this interest, we would not be a good connection.ArtsI love art. Once upon a time this was going to be the field I was going to pursue. That changed for financial reasons back when I was very young. This is a talent that runs rampant in my family, and impacts all facets of my life. Ideally I would have an art studio when I retire so I can finally realize this long gone dream of mine where I create art. LOVE LOVE LOVE Please if you are in a committed relationship or married I respectfully ask you not even bother. Thanks for understanding :) I think a fabulous first date might start with attending a fine food cooking class followed by wine at a piano bar, not too loud because we want to get to know each other :)Please note, I don't consider the first meeting and first date to be the same thing. First meeting, well that's coffee or lunch or breakfast or a****ail (LOL okay apparently this site has a bad word filter, that is another word for adult beverage LOL) and its Dutch. First meeting is to see if there are sparks. Then you decide if there's a first date

    Looking for: man. In age: 52-62

    I am an energetic, active, sarcastic, loving-life girl. Summer is my favorite season, around water makes me happy. The only good thing about winter in KS is sitting with someone special in front of a roaring fire. I seldom have the TV on, but make exceptions for collegiate basketball and football and professional football. I am open to new activities, pushing the limit-except of course, jumping out of a completely operational airplane, or tied to a bungee cord and jumping off solid ground.I have a love/hate relationship with running. Often I dread getting started, but the sense of accomplishment when I am finished out-weighs the dread. At one time would only consider the treadmill when it was too cold/hot to run outside, but I admit, I have become a "treadmill whore" of late, pounding the darn thing ***times a week. A couch potato, I am not. The grass does not grow under my feet.I am very active would rather be at the park, at a festival, or just walking around the neighborhood after work, rather than sitting around getting old. They are my strength. My youngest one is following her calling to serve others. My oldest one, her mother's keeper: guiding me, scolding me, praising me, loving me. These girls make me proud.I have re-discovered myself since turning 50, and I LIKE it. This stage of our lives has so much to offer and the time and resources to do them.This is proving to be the best time of my life; the glass ALWAYS half-full, not half-empty. Age is about spirit and soul, not a number. If you are looking for a fixer upper, that's not me. I don't need fixed.If you like your women a little crazy, not me. If your heart is not free and open to share, I am not the one for you.I am in a good place, happy; just wanting to share it with someone. I am looking for a life-long partner. Someone to share life with: our joys , our sorrows, our accomplishments, our failures; to laugh with, to cry with, to work together and play together.;If I asked why me about my troubles, I would have to ask why me about my blessings".I am a blessed woman.

    Woman. 51 years old. Zodiac sign: Virgo.

    Looking for: man. In age: 48-58

    I so hate this part. I am very much a lady and am looking for a gentleman who knows how to treat me as a lady should be treated. I am hard working, funny, kind, genuine, and sweet. A little apprehensive, having been burned badly, I am willing to give this a shot again as I have a lot to offer someone who is willing to work toward the same. I am very creative, love music, reading, learning, art, movies, cooking. I love walking near the water & love to look at the moon & stars when I can see them. I'm not over materialistic, grew up in the country, and am down-to-earth. A little shy by nature, I'm worth getting to know.Not interested in one night stands, not that lonely. Sorry but I don't see dating unless you are in the city. I don't have a car and if you're in the burbs, it's equal to a long distance relationship. Being a southern girl, we tend to let the man take the lead and tell us what he can afford. Anything from meeting for coffee to walking through a park to the traditional dinner & a movie.

    Southern lady. Looking for someone to spend quality time with and see what develops. Not looking for any one night stands or players. Must be over your ex and ready to have fun getting to know each other. Do not smoke or into drugs. Love anything fun with the right person. Walks or talks. lots more..Had a few questions from several of you regarding if all I am looking for is to date. First you have to date and see if you have any common interests or not to take it further. If I meet the man of my dreams and know we could live the rest of our lives being happy then I would by all means love to be married and live happily ever after. I am only looking for one good man.If you have any questions feel free to contact me and lets talk. we would meet in a public place maybe for lunch or dinner or a drink. Whatever we decide will be fun I am sure.
