LET'S GET THIS STRAIGHT....I'm dressed like a friggin' NUN in my photos..no "cuddle time" before meeting and greeting. Just sayin'...I am just a nice girl looking for a nice guy. But not desperate. My time is limited and precious. I am a mom, 4 kids, all older, one still at home for one more year. She is my life. I work hard, I am a student, an artist and I have been on my own for 10 years now. I am baffled as to why the laundry and dishes keep piling up - only me and my girl at home. Mysterious. It is like the missing sock thing. One time I cleaned my dryer vent and found 4 single socks and 20 bucks. Awesome!“'But I don’ 'Oh, you can’t help that,' said the Cat. 'We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.' 'How do you know I’m mad? 'You must be,” said the Cat. 'or you wouldn’t have come here.'” Meh. That about sums it up.I am a Librarian, tho' my training and education is mostly art and communications. I work all day with children and young people. I am a perpetual student, heading into my 4th year at BCC, slowly working on my second AA, eventually a BA or BS and maybe a Masters someday. I like my space. Raised 4 kids, and did a superb job. They are fabulous. I make great art. I don't much care about how much "stuff" you have. I am not into stuff. I love people and personalities.I love animals, music - mostly listen to country - books, reading, walking, talking, writing...extremely right - brained and mathematically challenged. Oh well. I tried to fish, literally, I mean. With an actual pole and bait. Turned out I was good at spotting bait, digging sand fleas, and snagging rocks. And guarding the cooler. I think that should count for SOMETHING> I like hiking - would prefer the mountains, but like the local nature preserves. Owned a horse in my youth, love to ride. Pretty basic stuff, I oame from a military family, so I am used to uprooting and traveling. I tend towards restlessness at times. I am fairly content with my life. I recently had a life-changing medical scare that put me in a new place of perspective.. Gratitude is key, as is forgiveness, love, faith, understanding and acceptance...rarely is it level. I am capable of drama but do not seek it. No longer so easily rattled. Everything is as it should be.I believe: The best time to plant a tree was 50 years ago...second best time? TODAY. (My Gumbo Limbo is flowering...whooo hooo!!!) I'm drawing a blank. I think of it as a meet and greet, not a date.

I am not 53. I just realized meetville had my age wrong and I can't change it. I don't know that I have a "perfect match." There have been so few so called "perfect" (don't you hate parenthetical people?) people in my life that turned out to be anything but and so many admittedly imperfect people who actually came much closer. I'm comfortable in my own skin and in my own company so if that is all that there is ever going to be for me, so be it. But if there is more, I don’t want to miss it. I can state it best this way: I would like a man in my life but I don't NEED a man in my life and if you don't understand the difference, we're probably not a good fit. There are so many ways I could describe myself and what I want in a relationship but I’ve selected these few. I want someone who gets the emotional shorthand when we look at each other from across the room. You know, it’s that look--the one that runs from “oh crap, did YOU shut the garage door?” all the way to “I’m feeling frisky, are you with me?” He will understand that I have to be outside when it’s storming and he will hear the same profound silence you hear after a deep snowfall, you know, the silence that makes you whisper? He’ll have the Kleenex ready when I watch “Love, Actually” because he knows that, even though this is the umpteenth time I’ve seen this movie, I’m going to bawl anyway. He should be comfortable with bruises because even though I have never successfully pounded a nail just exactly the way I have wanted to, I didn’t, and most likely won’t ever, stop trying. I want someone who thinks they could be attracted to an intelligent woman who also happens to sing off key and out loud at stoplights and someone who finds it cute that, despite the aforementioned intelligence, I push on the dang door handle when it clearly says pull. He should be someone who, when times get rough, as they inevitably do, will stick it out with me if he says he will, because if I tell him that I will stick, I will. I want someone who recognizes my bravado when it’s false as well as my courage when it’s real, knows the difference but treats both the same. He should want to be my friend because I will be his and I‘m a good one. I won’’ll be there when it’s over and I promise I will look on in awe. I’m fun. I'm intelligent, irreverent, philosophical, witty, and yes, at times profane, but above all else, I’m kind. I love children. Children to me are proof that yes, there is a God. I cannot pass up a stray. I never lie unless it is to spare someone's feelings or to comfort someone who might be scared. I have been known to hug complete strangers and at the same time have been told I look like a snob. I appreciate all forms of education and intellect. I have an pretty good command of the English language but sometimes only a well placed four letter word will do. I would prefer a man who lives alongside me, not stuck to me. There are so many other things I could say but in my day to day life, I don't ever find myself having to sell myself so this isn't going to sound as if I am at ease with it. First meeting I would prefer a daytime meeting in a coffee house or something like that. First date date? Dinner in a romantic setting.

I am a young lady for my age. Continue to enjoy canoeing, biking, rollerblading, beach, bowling, dancing and open to anything. (almost) Especially anything that involves the sun, truly a sun worshipper. I am partially retired. My spirituality is important to me . I contribute alot of my time to the community and helping others. I am a devoted and loyal woman. I like to spoil and make my significant other feel loved at all times. I don't need someone but miss the luxury of having a special companion. Not a material person but enjoy the nice things in life. I still have many dreams, life without dreams stay the same. If u r reading my profile for the second time, cure the curiosity and contact me. Well lets see a trip to a beautiful beach on a tropical island, ok maybe not but somewhere to chat and mostly laugh it is the key to a good relationship. Laughter is the best medicine
