About Me

I'm a journalist and historian by training. I teach high school & have a son,17, who still lives at home.I love to keep busy and laughing. How?! Planning fun activities: beach, a good comedy at the movie theater, and a hearty belly laugh. I love to get silly. Don't get to do that enough--do you?!I don't watch much t.v., but I do like educational shows, history shows & good movies. Moreover, mornings with a good cup of coffee & the paper is nirvana. I am pretty simple when it comes down to it and I promise the same in return--to be joyful & lots of warm embraces.Traveling (have passport) is a passion and so is genealogical research. And I like working out at the gym, too, but haven't gotten back after I broke my foot because I know pain awaits.I am a Midwestern girl, so I like going to tractor pulls and fishing on ponds. I like to pick strawberries and husk corn. I like bonfires and weenie roasts (my fire pit or on the beach). Love to throw a party or do a "girls night out" at my house. I like to bowl, dance, walk and swim. Most other sports I am happy being a fan. I do drive a mean golf cart, though.My family, my job, learning new things are all high priority for me. I am just a woman who loves life! I love museums, too. One of my goals is to go back to Vatican museum someday. I love going to concerts and plays, too.Looking for that final date, but I am realistic (and yet believe God has plans for me), so, until then I would be satisfied with a dating partner; a committed companion -- or how about someone to have coffee with on Saturday morning first?!If he happens to be kind, honest, spiritual (to me that means a practicing Christian who attends church and likes it) and really a believer in Jesus.He must be totally monogamous-minded; employed (early retired would be considered), I like men who know their way around a tool box, and ideally, he would not only be dedicated but also "easy on the eyes" (oh, I do love the blue eyes and dimples--and I like BIG men, too).Well, if he's all that, then, I guess I might want more than coffee ;)I lost my teen-aged daughter to a brain tumor two years ago. So, no day is perfect. But Christ is my constant. It is He that I think of and cleave to and desire--looking forward to the day when we are all reunited. Oh, an ideal first date?!That would have to include not feeling too exposed...it is hard to put yourself out there for possible rejection.I enjoy laughing and good conversation. That's a good start.And if we're clicking, maybe we can decide to grab a bite to eat later. Burger Fy comes to mind.Don't be afraid to be impromptu.Oh, and make me want to kiss you goodnight...but make me wait. I like a little teasing! ;)

    I am young at heart, do not believe that age should determine what you can, or can not, do, and look for the same in my partner. I love the outdoors, camping, kayaking, gardening, dancing, blues festivals, and crafts. I am a Reiki Master and in to natural healing. Both my children are older, but my 20yr old son lives with me. I do have a dog & enjoy animals. Looking for someone to enjoy life with, romantic, likes to dance, the outdoors, and not afraid to try new things. I believe that communication and compromise are important in a relationship. I also believe the best relationship is built on a great friendship I believe the first date should be something basic, cup of coffee/tea/beer, whatever, at a place where we can talk to see if there is any sparks, chemistry, etc., to determine if we want a second date. I am pretty open on the second date, dancing, picnic, etc., I am pretty easy going.

    How does one tell someone about them self's with out it sounding like a resume? So I'm sorry if this sounds like one. lol, I'm very out going and fun loving. I enjoy playing tennis, horse ridding,(english and western) going to the movies, dinning out, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy the water. I love the beach, I love to travel. I like to take long walks, I like to listen to all kinds of music. I love to laugh, I enjoy pro football and basketball, and I enjoy a good Longhorns game, I do not dance, one because its not a pretty sight (lol) I love spending time on the River Walk, Six Flags, and Sea World, I am comfortable with dressing up for fine dinning or jeans and t-shirt eating burgers, I am comfortable in all types of social situations,or I enjoy being at home curled up with a good book or a great movie. You must have a resent picture of yourself before I will respond to you. I am not interested in a one night stand or a hook up. I am looking for a long term relationship. *******YOU MUST LIVE IN THE STATES AT THIS TIME!!!!****** First date should always be light some thing like lunch, or coffee, and lots of talking and laughing, getting to know each other, and then see were it may lead.

    Little about myself... Been on this site on and off, have met lots of great people, but still waiting for that special someone...:) My first date should be simple, you don't have to try to sweep me off my feet. Just simple conversation over coffee or a drink, maybe walk the boardwalk just get to know each other.
