About Me

I'm a retired teacher. I had a second grade classroom for most of my career, but I also taught small groups from grades 1-8. Since retiring I have done volunteer work for the Humane Society (in the office) and the American Cancer Society (driving patients). I have also acquired some rental properties. Two of them were older homes which I renovated, doing as much work myself as I was able to. I really enjoy the creative process of envisioning a more practical, beautiful home, and then choosing the improvements, colors, and materials to make that a reality. My favorite renovation is now a vacation rental, and I loved being able to take the further step of decorating the home (on a budget!), refinishing furniture, sewing curtains and pillows, and creating artwork.I adore animals, especially my own dog and two cats, all of them rescues. I love going to movies, concerts, and live theater--all things that inspire us and connect us to the human race. I get a kick out of trying new foods and recipes and exploring new places. I enjoy reading and learning about many things, including nutrition and health. Finding a beautifully written book is a real thrill. I enjoy a wide variety of music, from classical to pop--pretty much anything but heavy metal or rap.--Phantom of the Opera, Cats, Mama Mia, etc. I love hiking, as long as I can take my time. Climbing to the top of Mount Aeneas this summer was such a treat. It offers ***degree views from what feels like the top of the world. I am positive, friendly, quiet, kind, dependable, playful, and down to earth. I love intelligent conversation and the sharing of thoughts and ideas. My viewpoint is usually liberal. I strongly believe in human rights, and in treating all others with respect and dignity regardless of race, religion, sexual preference, or personal choices. I was raised Lutheran, and later attended Methodist and non-denominational churches. Although I no longer attend church, I continually strive to grow in my spiritual life. I have a broader view of God now and the connectedness of all creation. I am influenced by the works of Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle, and Dr. Seuss.I’m looking for a genuine, gentle man with inner strength, who is relaxed and easy going, intelligent, fun to be with, open minded,. and respectful of all others. I want to find someone who laughs easily, but never at the expense of others, who feels childlike enthusiasm over life’s little pleasures, and who accepts me as I am, yet inspires me to be more. A good first date would offer opportunity for conversation.

    The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convience,but where he stands at a time of challenge and controversy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I can type all my qualities here, but bottom line, we all sound good in text, print whatever you call this.......I'd like to meet that one man I look forward to seeing and spending quality time with no matter where we are or what we do , he should be the first person I want to call when something good or bad happens, If it is something bad, I don't need him to "fix" the problem I just want to know he is "there", I want him to know how to be there when things get rough.......I want a man that is not afraid to communicate, someone that knows how to compromise or can agree to disagree if needed....I want someone I can laugh and be stupid with......he has to be honest a man of his word, respectful and he must make me feel safe no matter what.........I dont want anything from a man that I am not willing to give to him....Also, I dont want him to just make me feel like I am the only woman for him, I want to know I am the only woman!!!!What makes me unique is I am not looking to change a man.......if he has the qualities I feel are important to me than I should be able to accept the qualities I may not like or I should not be with him.Also......There must be physical attraction chemistry and connection....We must Both want to be each others priority not just an option to each other.

    I'm a hopeless romantic and a class clown. My ideaI partner would have a good sense of humor so that he doesn't look at me like I'm crazy when I joke around. One of the best sounds in the world is laughter. Life is too short not to enjoy it, so I do. I am interested in the old European cathedrals, especially the french ones. I do have a bucket list but i also have dreams. The difference is I might complete items on my bucket list but probably not my dreams. But I don't want to live there really....I still want to live in the U.S. but go to my winery once a year for a month or two.Family is very important to me. I love spending time with my family.I'm not much of a drinker. I started drinking, only socially, very recently. I like older music...from the 60's and 70's .... classic country, rock, and love the melancholic sound of blues. I like to borrow my son's old Chevy and cruise down the highway with the windows down, listening to ole Hank Sr. I'm emotionally stable, good-humored, healthy, and honest. Since I've been on this site I've learned about the term "game playing". What the heck?! I don't do that. I'm just looking for someone to enjoy life beside me. I don't usually look at appearances but rather what is on the inside.... unless you look like Sasquatch, which I doubt. Lol. Well I don't know what else to say to give you a sense of who I am. You can always discover more when you meet me. Talking in a relaxed atmosphere over a cup of coffee or a drink.
