About Me

Now that my son is nearly grown, I have more time for me! Just "me" is getting kinda dull, so I'd love to make the me, a "WE!" =)So as not to scare away those that like correct grammar, I know that the "we" should have really been an "us"...but not as catchy...sorry ;)!I am a pretty unique gal that does not fit the mold of most women. If it is a girlie girl that you are looking for, then I am not the one for you. I love to sweat and don't mind getting dirty. Don't get me wrong, I do clean up nicely too! I am not one to talk much about pop culture, in fact, I am not really sure who the Kardasians are, or even care to know...Not much of a TV watcher either. I am not materialistic and live pretty simply. If your profile pic is of you standing in front of your expensive car...we are probably not a match. Also...I have noticed many of you guys are into your motorcycles! Honestly, they really scare the heck out of me...being an orthopaedic nurse...so if this is an important part of your lifestyle, I don't think I can share that with you.I am an independent, down to earth, positive, and basically happy person. I am looking for that man out there who will thrill me, challenge me , inspire me, and be my missing piece. I am in a wonderful place in life....it is truly good...and look forward to sharing my happiness and time with that special guy.I live a healthy lifestyle and and am very fit and active. I love anything outdoors! Swimming, hiking ,biking, kayaking, beaches, lakes, mountains...can you introduce me to more?I am an avid runner and love the challenge of races, the longer the better! I adore my running friends, but would love to have a new training partner ;)! There is something very special and intimate about working out alongside a partner.....I want that. I also enjoy Yoga and practice nearly every day. This world of flexibility, strength, grace, and spirituality is my new frontier. I would also love to share this love with a Yogi guy!I like to cook and am getting better and more creative now that my son is past the chicken nugget stage. There is nothing more satisfying than feeding someone and getting their genuine compliments! All healthy stuff...if you like a steady diet of grease, you will become bored with me and my choices.I love music and always try to keep a good song in my head. When the going gets tough, just start singing it! I especially like classic rock, jam bands, reggae, and the blues. Love live shows in smaller venues or at huge outdoor festivals. Bob Marley once said: "a good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain"...ahhhh so true, at least for me :)On the spiritual side, I am a thoughtful, kind person that always seems to take the side of the underdog. I've been told I have a big heart. Born and raised a Catholic. It is my foundation, and has helped to shape who I am today...although I haven't been to church much lately, I am more spiritual than ever. I find that I no longer need rules and structure to help me be my best possible caring and compassionate and peaceful me....I try to live by the Golden Rule. When you think about it, isn't it the basis behind every world religion?I hope to find a like minded, passionate man who also does not fit the mold. Please, please be happy, optimistic, fit, active and soulful. Did I mention fit?? Respect for your mind, body and soul should be a priority. Are you kind? Crunchy, chewy and yummie are an added bonus also! Did I mention fit? Oh yes, I did...sorry to be redundant but this is a must. One that knows the correct use of an apostrophe and "their, there, they're" is a bonus too!Intimacy and affection are also very important to me. You too?Are you out there? I look forward to meeting you......together!

    Woman. 50 years old. Zodiac sign: Leo.

    Looking for: man. In age: 47-57

    I'm an extremely busy professional but getting close to retirement,who is extremely independent, (set in my ways - where's the font setting? I'd prefer that in small print), financially secure and emotionally stable. I have a never ending desire to experience it all. I will try anything that sounds like fun - the unique or even the unusual. Very young at heart - need someone similar and close in age! I'm confident but I'm not stuck on myself. I know my strong points but it gets better - I know all my faults too (but I certainly won't be spilling the beans here! Not on purpose anyways!)I suppose I should get some things out of the way - for *** is a dating site and we won't all click with each other. We all know what we are and aren't looking for. For me and my hectic schedule - long distance romance will most likely leave us both frustrated. Also I date within my age range - plus or minus about 5 yrs. or so - that will most likely assure that we are close to being at the same stage in life. I'm also not here to chat, kill time, play games etc - I truly am super busy and I really know what I want. If you've lied about anything in your profile - age, marital status, self sufficiency etc - it definitely won't go over well. And believe me I know how cold and impersonal this sounds and it is so sad that it's totally necessary - but I've been here a while and I'm not interested in settling ~ I'll wait for the real deal. ( P.S. the real deal will have read my profile and feel like he knows me and he'll put some thought into communicating intelligently and unoffensively)Although the past has shaped us into who we are today - I would prefer to leave the past behind as much as possible. I'm friendly still with those who I've had relationships with in the past but I'm completely over any romantic attachments I may have once felt. I don't want to spend too much time thinking or talking about where I've been and I'm not really overly interested in hearing the blow by blow details of someone elses missteps. I've come here unattached and very ready to check my baggage. I'm active - enjoy being fit and need someone who is able to keep up with me. You MUST be social and able to communicate effectively!! Although psychic phenomenon intrigues me - I have to admit that I am not very good at reading minds or even reading between the lines! I have had difficulty in the past because I listened to words and didn't pay attention to actions that didn't match the words. But wisdom comes with age truly is the case. I say what I feel and do what I say! It really is that simple. Although I am a nurturer at heart, I would prefer that you be self sufficient, I want to hang up my mothering hat for a while, if you know what I mean! If you cook that's a plus. I'm a simple gal when it comes to food - I think my smile is my best feature and I could lose myself in an expressive set of eyes! An impish smile and a great sense of humor are both a plus. I can tell a great story. When something goes wrong, I'm usually capable of laughing it off and announcing that "This too will make a great story ... someday!" I am not too much of a homebody although I enjoy being home working on a project or in the yard but I love to travel ... 5 star accommodations not necessary. I live on a lake ~ finally in my dream home. Love the outdoors ... beaches, boating, hiking, rock climbing and long walks with the dogs! Although I enjoy being fit and active - I'm not very good at winter sports - the MRI of the knee after snowboarding with my daughter proves as much! Like snowmobiling, jet-ski's and spending time with family and friends - playing cards, board games or charades. I enjoy playing racquetball and volleyball through the local Park & Rec drop in program. I also enjoy a good game of cutthroat setback and am on a setback league. I enjoy an occasional "Girls Poker Night". I like to watch sports at times - I'll bet on anything for fun - football, "March Madness" and whether the moon will be out tonite! I'm slightly competitive (font setting???) but I'm never a sore loser. It really is all about having fun.I have a diverse and interesting collection of friends which makes me gravitate towards people who are not bigots or judgmental. I love to laugh and get along best with people with a good sense of humor.I can be passionate about a lot of things and stubborn at times. (Still haven't found that font setting! LOL ) I am honest, loyal and trustworthy and always about 10 mins late. My Dad used to say I'll be late for my own funeral and I'm hoping to prove him right on at least that point! I'm very close to my family - I come from a very loving background. One brother, one sister, nieces, nephews - a beautiful daughter, my Mom - they are very important to me. My Dad recently passed and we alI miss him terribly.I am open to but not necessarily looking for a serious relationship at this time and I certainly don't need to be rescued, I am open to spending quality time with the right man for me. Although I do consider myself a realist when it comes to the dating scene - I have to admit that I secretly hope that the man who can make me go weak in the knees is not just a figment of my imagination.

    I've been accused of being picky, maybe too picky. I've "settled" in the past. Learned as I've matured that it is no way to live. In order to be truly happy, you must take care of yourself first and let everything else fall into place. Don't leave your happiness in someone else's hands. With that said........ I'm an all-American sweetheart who wears her heart on her sleeve. Mom of 3 girls (26, 24, & ***divorced for 8 years now. I have a super soft spot for babies and animals (and baby animals!) I am currently enrolled in school part time to enhance my education as a nurse (working on my Bachelor's degree). It is such an amazing feeling when you know you've made a difference in someone's life, and I get that nearly every day in my profession. Although I'm very laid back and easy going, I'm on the go much of the time. I live by my golden rule to not sweat the small stuff. In the scheme of things, it's all small stuff!So if you've gotten through thus far (and actually read profiles, not just look at pictures lol), I will say that it isn't often that I will initiate contact here. Something to do with the male species needing to do the hunting and not being the hunted! So if you see that I've viewed you, but didn't ***, it might just be that I am interested, but waiting for you to take the lead. Then again, I just might not be interested. ;-pAs far as my interests and hobbies are concerned, I love music. I favor rock (Alternative and Classic), but known to enjoy Jazz, Blues, Classical - no Rap and no Country. Enjoy being outdoors; Fairs and festivals, antique shopping, wine tastings, amusement parks, live music in small venues, and playing golf are all activities I have fun doing. Perhaps you can introduce me to some of your favorite ways to have fun?Some of my preferences......white collar over blue collar; dark hair over light hair;; tall over short; broad shoulders over thin/slight build. None of these are set in stone, but a great smile is a must!If you are going to contact me, please have something more to say than "Hi. How are you?". More likely than not you will not ellicit a response with that type of introduction ***'ll have to put in a bit more thought and effort. First date or first meeting? First meeting must be short, sweet, and simple....make sure the pics don't lie! Let's see if there is chemistry and attraction. Without either, there's just no sense in continuing. Don't you agree?
