About Me

I am a divorced lady with no children. I am still friendly with my ex, and now feel ready to get back into the social scene. I work for a large travel agency and would love to have someone to travel with! I have two cats, whom I love, and I plan to add a dog to my home very soon, so you MUST be an animal lover! I don't care about age, as long as it's not too huge a gap either way. I am looking for someone easygoing, stable, and calm, who enjoys going out but also likes to stay home and veg once in a while. Anyone I'm with has to be at least somewhat liberal, yet also not hate country music!This poem is a favorite of mine. If it speaks to you also, please contact me!The DanceI have sent you my invitation,the note inscribed on the palm of my hand by the fire of living.Don’t jump up and shout, “Yes, this is what I want! Let’s do it!”Just stand up quietly and dance with me.Show me how you follow your deepest desires,spiraling down into the ache within the ache,and I will show you how I reach inward and open outwardto feel the kiss of the Mystery, sweet lips on my own, every day.Don’t tell me you want to hold the whole world in your heart.Show me how you turn away from making another wrong without abandoning yourself whenyou are hurt and afraid of being unloved.Tell me a story of who you are,and see who I am in the stories I live.And together we will remember that each of us always has a choice.Don’t tell me how wonderful things will be . . . some day.Show me you can risk being completely at peace,truly okay with the way things are right now in this moment,and again in the next and the next and the next. . .I have heard enough warrior stories of heroic daring.Tell me how you crumble when you hit the wall,the place you cannot go beyond by the strength of your own will.What carries you to the other side of that wall, to the fragile beauty of your own humanness?And after we have shown each other how we have set and kept the clear, healthy boundaries thathelp us live side by side with each other, let us risk remembering that we never stop silentlylovingthose we once loved out loud.Take me to the places on the earth that teach you how to dance,the places where you can risk letting the world break your heart.And I will take you to the places where the earth beneath my feet and the stars overhead makemy heart whole again and again.Show me how you take care of businesswithout letting business determine who you are.When the children are fed but still the voices within and around us shout that soul’s desires havetoo high a price,let us remind each other that it is never about the money.Show me how you offer to your people and the worldthe stories and the songsyou want our children’s children to remember.And I will show you how I struggle not to change the world,but to love it.Sit beside me in long moments of shared solitude,knowing both our absolute aloneness and our undeniable belonging.Dance with me in the silence and in the sound of small daily words,holding neither against me at the end of the day.And when the sound of all the declarations of our sincerestintentions has died away on the wind,dance with me in the infinite pause before the next great inhaleof the breath that is breathing us all into being,not filling the emptiness from the outside or from within.Don’t say, “Yes!”Just take my hand and dance with me.© Oriah Mountain Dreamer, from the book The Dance, HarperONE, SanFrancisco, ***I like to keep the first meeting pretty casual -- a cup of coffee or maybe a glass of wine, conversation, see what comes from that . . .

    .....God does work in mysterious ways so I thought I would give this a try. I am a very romantic person. I am kind hearted and love to laugh. I enjoy outdoor activities and am always up for trying something new. I work out several times a week and try to take good care of myself. I am a spiritual person and love country music. Very down to earth and conservative and somewhat independent, actually very independent. I have a good sense of humor, compassionate and very open to a good adventure. Absolutely love camping and water skiing. Work hard and play harder, love to travel. I tend to be a bit reserved at first, altho that won't last long. I am one who is able to dress down, or WAY up as a girlie-girl.I am looking for someone who is easy-going, has a great sense of humor, someone who likes to have fun. They must also, take care of themselves health wise, be reliable, honest, trustworthy, affectionate and loyal. NO DRAMA!! I love people who make me laugh and have a positive attitude Looking for someone to be a friend first and if something more develops that is great for both of us and if it doesn't work out at least I made a new friend. BTW, I would like to hope pictures are somewhat current. A first date, or meeting, would only be when we are BOTH comfortable, so if you are looking for a face to face immediately, you may want to skip on to the next one.

    ...while you peruse my profile and sneak a peek at what makes me tick. (A girl can dream, can't she?)One of the nicest compliments I ever received was: "When you come to visit, it feels like Tinker Bell has sprinkled happy fairy dust all over our house and it lasts for weeks." I enjoy cooking and baking for those who appreciate it. I am a monogamous, down to earth, intelligent woman with simple tastes--who would have chosen "heavyset" as my description but only "bbw" was available (darn it). I do not wear flashy clothes or expensive lingerie and I do not need diamonds or jewels. These trappings do not define me. However, I have an eye for taste and would not hesitate to hang a painting by Monet on my wall.-tub). I can rough-it...within limits... ha ha ha.;home" for visits especially in the spring and fall, but winter is very lovely as well. And, for star-gazing, country places are the best places.I enjoy many genres of music-- My current favorite movie is Silver Linings Playbook. As for books, I love to read romance, drama, thriller, who-dun-its, and am currently reading "Literature, An Introduction To Fiction, Poetry, Drama And Writing."I would like to meet a monogamous, self-supportive, good man who enjoys some of the same interests as me, a man who has a quick smile, honest eyes, integrity, a loving hand and a positive outlook on life. Though I am no raving beauty, he would look into my heart and see the gold within my soul. He would enjoy woodsy walks, slow- He might find sunrises equally as lovely as sunsets, and he would hopefully enjoy watching a good snow or lightning storm and listening to the sounds of rolling thunder with his partner by his side. He would have a sense of humor and possess the ability to laugh at himself, as I do myself quite frequently. This man would know, as I do, that you can't get to a long term relationship without building a foundation upon friendship first.I would like to leave you with this haunting poem by Ted Kooser titled:Abandoned FarmhouseHe was a big man, says the size of his shoeson a pile of broken dishes by the house;a tall man too, says the length of the bedin an upstairs room; and a good, God-fearing man,says the Bible with a broken backon the floor below the window, dusty with sun;A woman lived with him, says the bedroom wallpapered with lilacs and the kitchen shelvescovered with oilcloth, and they had a child,says the sandbox made from a tractor tire.And the winters cold, say the rags in the window frames.It was lonely here, says the narrow country road.Something went wrong here, says the empty housein the weed-choked yard.; the still-sealed jarsin the cellar say she left in a nervous haste.And the child? Its toys are strewn in the yardlike branches after a storm--a rubber cow,a rusty tractor with a broken plow,a doll in overalls. Something went wrong here, they say.The bottom line to end this on: I am halfway through my life and longing to find my one true love. A great first date for me is easy-going, laid-back conversation over drinks (hot or cold) and any one, or a few, of the "interests" I've listed above.
