About Me

The Resume:My hobbies: home improvement, writing fiction, animals (dog lover, but without pets at the moment), reading, walking, going to movies, live theatre(my degree is in set design for film and TV), concerts and listening to music at home. New technology (it’s part of my job, but it can be fun), science, computers, my iPhone, Starbucks, dark chocolate (the good kind).My goals/aspirations: writing a book, researching my family history, travel-(I do like cats too, and horses) Finish some projects on my house and make it my sanctuary. Update: new floors are in the bedroom, I did some of it myself and all the painting. Not sure if I wouldn’t step on any toes, but I would like to try ballroom or couples dancing. What makes me unique: I'm sure my friends have their own opinions, but I am outgoing and confident and shy. I like being around friends and family, I am also comfortable being by myself. In my job I work with a lot of guys, techs and engineers and I am comfortable in that environment, but I also like the theatre, art, literature, I can use power tools and grew up with snakes and lizards. Music is very personal to me and taps into my emotional and fun loving side. Yeah for iTunes!!!Turn offs:Use of profanity when it isn't needed, Profiles without pictures, pictures taken in the mirror, pictures wearing only sunglasses (I have a thing for eyes) and lastly pictures that contain dead animals/fish. The Novel (in progress):Since being divorced I have decided not to settle on finding just someone, I want THE ONE. While I am a hopeless romantic, I am a realist and I understand relationships take effort. That doesn’t mean I can't write my own ending, I want someone who I can look at across a crowded room and smile knowing there is some amazing secret between us. Intimacy should start with the spoken word, an innocent touch and see where it leads from there. As I mentioned above, I work with a lot of guys, techs and engineers and I am comfortable in that environment, but I believe my salvation is my creative and intro-reflective side that has flourished over the last few years since the passing of my mother and the end of my marriage. I see the world in a completely new light and intend to make the most of this new found motivation. I can’t change my past, but I am in complete control of my destiny, conscious of the journey along the way. I would like to find someone who shares some of my interests, and even if there are some he is not avid about part taking in, he decides it makes him happy because I am happy. At the same time, I would like that special someone to expect the same of me. Letting someone 'in' to my life and I into theirs is hugely important and needs to be achieved without fear of judgment. This includes embracing each other's family as their own, socializing with mutual friends and being open to new ones. I like being around friends and family, but I'm not afraid to be alone. I am not opposed to a man who will open doors for me or who will offer their hand when I get out of a car (in fact I like that a lot), but I can take care of myself, I am far from helpless. But that doesn't mean I don't need a strong shoulder to cry on occasionally. I don’t consider myself a dare-devil or sports junky, but I don’t keep myself locked indoors all the time either. (Unless I’m writing then I can’t help it). I do know enough about sports to follow along and have ventured out to see a hockey or baseball game. You move a little more, there’s a bounce in your step and a smile on your face. Music becomes the sound track to the life you want to lead. It can reveal a few secrets without saying anything. (Are you mysterious, fun, multi-dimensional, flirty, romantic, sensual, vulnerable, a closet rock star, assertive, poetic, young at heart, emotionally available, rebellious, all of the above.) If you can relate to any or all these concepts then introduce yourself. I know the difference between a flat head and Philips screw driver, I’ve cut more than a few sheets of dry wall, have power tools of my own and don’t check the mirror every five minutes to see if I need lipstick. I’ll let you decide, I know who I am and *the one* needs to know who they are while being open to change, because everything changes. ~~~~~"One person can make a difference, and everyone should try." - JFK.'“Whatever you do (in life) will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.” Mahatma Gandhi First Date What would I like to do on my first date: It would probably depend on what transpired leading up to the first date. I think the best activity would be something fun with the opportunity to get to know my first date better, some place that also allow us the opportunity to talk, ask questions and listen to what each other may have to say. And please have a picture on your profile, my main profile picture is current ***.

    Looking for: man. In age: 43-53

    I enjoy working out and eating healthy. I feel great being outside doing just about anything, but especially hiking, climbing, camping, fishing, snowshoeing...even golfing.I love to travel whenever I get the chance- even if its just for the weekend.With the right person I can b someone who loves staying in spending time getting to know one another or just hanging out watching movies. I'm easy to talk to, kind of the girl next door, a tomboy, a gamer, passionate and a good person.UPDATE Sept 21, ***Please DO NOT write me if any of the following criteria apply to you...You have lied about your age... I WILL NOT date a boy in their 20's and NO its NOT a compliment.You are currently emotionally involved with someone else. In other words, please be emotionally available.You lie. I dont expect perfection, and we all have pasts, so if we have to go there lets have the emotional maturity to be honest about it.I have indicated that I would like a long term relationship, I realize that takes time. I am not a serial dater, nor am I looking for just a sexual relationship.Thanks for reading.

    I\'m just a level headed, universally accepted walking contradiction to this world,. But at the end of the day I\'m the most honest, kind hearted, person. I want a sexy partner, loving, caring and not negligent.

    Woman. 48 years old. Zodiac sign: Pisces.

    Looking for: man. In age: 45-55

    I believe in staying fit and healthy physically and mentally. I like working out, hiking, rafting, snow skiing, reading, movies, wine, spending time with my family. I value a clean well maintained home and environment. I'm somewhat competitive, but mostly with myself. I have a beautiful grown daughter that is a NPB bikini athlete that I travel with to her competitions, I love to travel for vacations as well. I have just competed in my first bodybuilding show this past weekend as well, it was a blast and will most likely compete again. I want to meet a special man that is compatible with me. As we all know no one is perfect, and we have many more layers to are personalities, but can only get to know those through spending time together. I need chemistry with someone, which of course can only be known by meeting in person. I like a man who I can depend on to be honest and communicate well. Eventually he would need to like my awesome fun family and they him. Dinner a drink, going for a hike. Wine tasting.
