About Me

Easy-going, grounded, good sense of humor, and on the intellectual side are fair self-descriptors. I love my work but it is not my life. I'm a realist; and still manage to be positive... I might choose a nice log cabin in the mountains by a lake over a crowded beach unless the crowded beach is the entry point for scuba diving. This is not to say I haven't jet down to cabo for some R&R. I just head for the less crowded areas of beach. I have come to deeply appreciate simple pleasures like taking my dog to the dog park, growing my own vegetables and watching shadows on the landscape as the sun sets. I want to remain as healthy as possible, so I eat fairly healthy and workout. I tend to read quite a bit and like staying current on world events. I love family despite their dysfunction... lol... and believe in the golden rule. I communicate honesty my likes and needs, won't judge nor try to change what anyone else likes and needs. I value depth in relationships and love learning about other people's life journey to-date. Learning about wine and food pairing has been a fun hobby, and by no means am I an expert, but I try.. I hike in the Sierras with my dog and love anything outdoors, including a backyard picnic. Other likes include live music, comedy theatre, travel, entertaining, cooking, scuba, swimming, exploring. I hope to meet a college-educated, unpretentious, healthy man. I have stepchildren who are now grown. I loved helping to raise children, and look forward to learning about yours if you have children, and if you do not that is fine too. If any of this resonates, do say hello :) A walk in the park, a glass of wine, coffee, a local event, the dog park... whatever, I'm flexible.

    My life is cake.. I am looking for the frosting..I have a terrific life and would love to find someone to share it with. My kids are fantastic, my friends are the best and now I am ready to have a great guy to call my own.What is he like? Smart, funny and secure.. And since this is My wish list, tall, clean cut and HWP too please. He looks good cleaned up and probably even better after a few days in the woods. We all have baggage but hopefully his is of the carry-on variety, not the 4-piece matching set variety. Now for some deal breakers: Distance.. Please be somewhat local.. I have done the long distance thing and it doesn't work for me. If you have anger issues, control issues or jealousy issues, please pass me by. Ditto if you are still married.. Jeez, do I really have to say that? Also, please don't expect me to respond if you don't have pictures on your profile. Sorry..On the positive side, I look good in jeans or a little black dress. I am comfortable in a dive bar shooting pool or at your company function. I can start a fire, love college football (LSU!!) and the Yankees. I can cook and love to entertain in my home. My friends would tell you that I am smart, funny and the party starts when I arrive. I am not a gym rat, but I do enjoy being active. I am sure there are other things I should mention, but this is a start. Interested? Something quick and public.. Coffee? Happy hour?

    No...... Okay now you know why I'm online dating or companion fishing. Hey even a rugged guy friend would be amazing. (Well there was the firewood lumber jake but he drove with a big plastic cup full of alcohol....). I think I can do better than that...lol. Most days it's sunny and warm here and I do a lot outside in the fresh air and warmth of the day. I enjoy gardens and the beach. I like mini vacations to mountain resorts or a fun road trip to an out of the way town. I like riding bikes, uphill or downhill... All around or just along the beach. I'm a homebody too. I'm just as settled staying home on Friday night. Let's get a yummy drink and lay under the stars or take a little walk in the moonlight. I love the humane society kitten corner... Like to pet horses and talk to birds in my backyard... Lately these are the things I've been doing alone. It's time I really get out there and mingle a little...(that's what my daughter tells me:)ITS ALL GOOD. IM A HAPPY WOMAN! Doesn't really matter. Coffee or...coffee ice cream...
