About Me

I've been frequently told, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." I think that qualifies me as an Amazon Warrior. But I am also fiercely loyal, will fight to the death for those I love or a cause I believe is worthy. That's the tygress in me.) More often than not though, I find a peaceful solution to my problems and the problems for which I am asked to mediate. My faith is very important to me, and I would like to meet someone who shares that faith.I love trying to play tennis, going bowling, watching a good movie with lots of action or drama (not too big on chick flicks), or going swimming. In the summer or warm spring day, I love to go out on the lake, go for a boat ride, cooking out and relax around a good fire eating too many marshmellows with close family and friends. My most frequent outdoor activity is hiking out behind my home, typically in shorts and barefoot. When you get down to it, I was born and raised country and I'll be country til the day I die. There I learned to interact with people from all types of socio- As I mentioned, I love going barefoot in shorts and a tank top, but I also wear business suits for work. I can also dress up and be comfortable doing it.I believe relationships are about more than who makes you feel good in the short term. Good relationships are about being with someone you love even when they royally tick you off. When it is truly right, being with the right one for you brings out the best in you and helps you be a better person. And at the end of the day, nothing makes you feel better than just being with each other, no matter what you're doing.Someone recently put me back in touch with poetry writing."Listen to the Wolf Cry"Listen to the wolf cry, For she cries all night for you. She knows the path you travel For her spirit follows you. You once held much potential; Strength and wisdom did she see. Now when gazing upon you, All she does is quietly weep. Chances left untaken, Unanswered challenges scattered by the way. "Your life is going nowhere!" Is what she thinks but does not say. Answer the call within you, Embrace life with open arms. Become the one you were born to be, So the wolf will cry no more. Adventure, laughter and a good connection. I can handle the ever so awkward meeting over caffeine and appetizers and chit chatting. But I would love to try something like ziplining or some other adventurous activity. If the date doesn't exactly spark a match, at least you'll have fun and you won't spend 20 minutes trying to figure out something to fill the silence. Though that would be very rare with me. I can talk about just about anything. I love expanding my mind, to learn to see things through another's eyes. And I listen even better than I talk. But my vote is still for the adventuresome date. Why be like everyone else? But, if you feel safer with a traditional meet and greet, I can handle that too.

    So whats a gal like me doing on POF? Curiosity, boredom, seeking interesting conversation, maybe a new friend in life, preferably no enemies, and on the off chance of meeting that intriguing person that sets off a spark.I am divorced and single. I am alone, but not lonely (which also means I am not desperate). I have learned to be comfortable with myself. I am pretty well balanced, down to earth chick you meet in a grocery store in old jeans and a t shirt. I have a positive outlook in life. I am one of those who will easily start a conversation with someone in line.I enjoy nature, (amateur) photography, friends and family, theme parks, reading, people watching, long easy conversations, sarcasm, laughter (a must!), good movies, planting and digging in the dirt (love the feel and scents of nature) scrabble, yatzee, impulse outings, not worrying about looking and acting perfect, but *** comfortable, and respectable, alright and silly! I like to have fun, be in positive atmospheres. (I will try to lighten too serious moods.) I need to have time alone to myself to refresh and unwind. I am very empathetic, this time alone is necessary for me. I enjoy "hanging out" with my teenagers, though they are now at that age where hanging out with mom isn't as important. Which is probably for the best as I want to attach them to a rocket aimed at the moon more and more often...That's normal, right? Teenagers really dont make much sense and when they do, not only is it totally fascinating, but a little scary... just where did you learn that and when??I have experienced true love, loss, betrayal, death of family members, lay offs, reality checks and single parenting, and here I am, stronger and more confident. I have avoided relationships or involvement because I have been thru Hell, but have had it easy compared to others. The idea of a broken heart again really helps me keep people at a distance. And that is really hard to overcome. Playing games is not my style, I am pretty straight forward, and honest. I am old.fashioned, I have good morals. I'm not a one nighter. What would I Like to see in a man? Someone confident and at ease with himself, with nothing to prove. Someone mature, but still a kid at heart. Comfortable in jeans and Ts, groomed, not necessarily polished, someone who has a past, but has used it to move to a better place in life, and not a dead weight dragged around. Someone who is secure enough that sitting in silence is comfortable for him. I appreciate a door opened for me, and arm to loop mine through, someone smart about life, someone who can banter and carry on easy conversation without having to work at it. I have a past. I am very hesitant to meet someone in person. I would like to get an idea of who you are, your thoughts, and feelings, and idea of how you perceive the world. If you are unable to converse on here, it is unlikely that I will meet in person. If your interested, Engage me in conversation. Are you up for the challenge.So, i guess thats it for now. Drop me a line if you would like to chat :)PS. I prefer Caucasian men. I would enjoy any place easy conversation and comfortable relaxation can be achieved. Coffee, window shopping, appetizers.... no rush, just relaxed & easy. If for some reason we don't match, no hard feelings, enjoy what time we shared, and go our separate ways. Its just that easy. But on the chance that we actually do get along, and hanging out is actually a pleasurable experience, we may need to make plans to get together again.

    I am a happy, bubbly person. I like to think I am easy to talk to - I am easy going and I love to laugh. I worked really hard to raise my daughter, who is a now college-student, while going to school and building a career myself. Now that the nest is semi-empty, I am having fun finding new things to get into. 13.5 hours is an ambitious goal for a voluptuous girl like me, but I DID IT! Actually, I completed it in 3 hours, 38 minutes, but that's in the ballpark, right? I absolutely loved it! I'm totally doing it again next year. Right now I am testing the Online Dating waters. I would like to find someone who is easy going and loves to laugh as much as I do. Drop me a line sometime if you're looking for the same thing? That just depends on our mutual interests. I like to gab, a lot, so anything that allows for a lot of conversation works for me.
