Woman. 54 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.
Looking for: man. In age: 51-61
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!

Here I am . . . again. Please, tell me something about yourself. Let's exchange some notes...then maybe exchange a number and chat. Take it from there. I'm old fashioned in the sense that I'm not going to go meet some man that I briefly met online and know nothing about. If you can't understand my hesitation, then we aren't on the same page, and that's all we need to know.I expect to be treated like a lady . . . usually while cussing the words! lol ....therein lays the conflict, I suppose.Enough for now.

Who would of thought it would be so difficult to find someone you click with! All of these words helps to decribe who we are and hopefully will provide some insight. Bottom line its all about the chemistry or clicking or energy, what ever you want to call it, IT has to be there. I am a pretty down to earth individual. I am friendly and outgoing but also enjoy some quiet time with those who are close to me. I can enjoy the simple things in life as well as some pampered luxury. I love to create great meals with friends while sharing glass of wine. I also make my own wine. I have to say I am a pretty good cook and love to experiment with new foods all the time. My only problem is I can never stick to a recipe which means cooking something twice is sometimes difficult. I enjoy the outdoors like hiking, walks at the beach or in the local parks, and also skiing and sleding with my kids. I love swimming as exercise but have had to mix it up some so I take in a gym now. I exercise ***times a week. So am I physically fit, yes. Is my body still curvy, yes....Update...life is pulling me out of my exercise routine...aaaaahhhhhh! Maybe now that the pools are opening up I can get back in the water.I like many different types of music and I enjoy the new as well as the old.I am an upspirited person who tries to see the good in people. I am a confident woman. I am an open minded individual who passes few judgements on others( Well maybe I pass this one judgement...if you dont have all your teeth mybe u should not send me a note). I go by the 'Whatever floats your boat'as long as its not hurtful to others. I have traveled to many states within the US and to many countries throughout the globe. I love exploring new places and cultures. Have recently started working again after more than two years enjoying the retired life. I love what I do so going back to work was easier than I thought it would be. OK an update! Going back to work is making my life a bit crazier. Lots of balls in the air but I guess that is life, right? I have a busy schedule but not too busy to try and find the person who makes my heart hop. I would love to do some kind of activity. taking a walk while sipping some coffee or tea would be nice.
