About Me

I'm not a typical 40 year old. I am a widowed mother of two young children. I chose to have children later in life. I have a 6 year old daughter and a 3 year old son. I'm looking for someone who has children or is completely comfortable dating someone with children.I have a passion for singing and listening to music.I was raised in a small farming community so at heart I'm a country girl. I like stock car races, tractor pulls, carnivals, muddin', camping, monster trucks and rodeos. Yet, I like to dress up and go out on the town too.One of my favorite past times is to hang out with my friends and neighbors on the patio. Adding a fire to it would make it even better.My favorite sounds include my children laughing, waves crashing against the shore, wind whistling through the trees, birds chirping, a crackling fire and anything nature.There is no greater feeling than laughing so hard you have tears rolling down your cheeks.Compassion ministry is my main focus. I live my life now based on cliches. They've been created because they've been lived. Don't wait til tomorrow, what you can do today...simply because we don't know if we have tomorrow. I ask myself every morning, "How can I be a blessing to someone else today?"Dating is a new world for me. It seems there is a lot of unnecessary pressure to put on a front or pretend to be someone your not. I have been stored away for the last several years and almost forgot who I was. I want to be me (God fearing, fun loving, romantic, nurturing, compassionate, happy) and I want to meet someone who will let me be me while enjoying who I am. With all the hype of pretending to be someone we're not, I would prefer to go some place where we are both very comfortable. Even if it requires bringing reinforcements. :) I want to get to know the real you, not the "first date" you. I am pretty much open to anything, but with summer upon us, a walk along the water or just hanging out would be just fine. However, if you prefer to meet for coffee, ice cream or even some bowling, I'd be up for that.

    I am very outgoing, friendly, flirty and fun. I don't get jealous or clingy, and I don't expect you to either. I like spending time with family and friends, jumping in the truck or on the bike and taking off for the day, or curling up on the couch with a glass of wine. Occasionally I like my alone time. I enjoy reading, camping, hiking, browsing antique malls and flea markets, taking road trips and photographing whatever catches my eye. I hate the gym, and prefer fun exercise, like walking, hiking, kayaking, Krav Maga... I like most any kind of music (except rap and heavy metal), and I enjoy live performances by jazz/blues/acoustic artists. I'm not afraid to get dirty and have been known to play in the rain. I wear jeans and t-shirts to work, so I love an opportunity to get dressed up for a night out. I am compassionate, giving and loyal almost to a fault. I express my opinions, stand up for principles I believe in, and respect others who do the same. I can be really sarcastic and silly, so you must be able to joke and have fun without getting offended or embarrassed. Ideally, I am looking for someone who is responsible, with a strong work ethic, but who can still be fun and spontaneous. I like a guy who's rough around the edges but cleans up when needed. I was not blessed with kids of my own, but I find little ones to be a perfect cure for a bad day, and they seem to find me equally entertaining. (Teenagers, well--they're a bit more of a challenge.) The more time I spend with my nephews and friends' kids, the more I realize what I'm missing. So don't be shy, dads--we'll get along just fine. :-)I've been quite independent for a lot of years now. As it turns out, it can get pretty lonely. I work evenings, but have long weekends, and would love to have someone to share them with. I recently bought a camp and look forward to fixing it up and spending lots of time there. There's even stuff to do in the winter. But I've got a motorhome, so we definitely have options! I've been accused of being a workaholic. This year I took serious steps toward changing that by taking more time for myself. Now I'd like some company... If any of this sounds remotely interesting to you, send me a message. Something casual like breakfast, lunch or drinks so we can see if we hit it off. If we can find someplace to walk around while we get to know each other, it may take the pressure off and seem less like an interview...
