About Me

I am the proud mom of two successful children who are in their mid-twenties, have finished college and Grad school, are financially stable, and live on their own. My daughter recently got married (July 14, ***, and my son has been with his gf for almost 4 years now. Family, immediate and extended, is very important to me. I am a 26-year veteran special education teacher. I teach children with emotional, psychological, and social disabilities. I consider myself fortunate to LOVE my "kids" at school, to LOVE my job, and to work with people who are my BEST friends! I not only teach during the regular school year, but I also teach six weeks out of the summer (It keeps me off the streets! LOL). In seven years, I plan on retiring from teaching. After that, I'd love to work with older people (lots of wisdom to soak up there) or with animals (lots of unconditional love).I am quick witted, and I like to joke around A LOT. So, if you can't handle a little teasing, please save yourself the time and the aggravation of putting up with me. Also, if you state in your profile that you don't take life too seriously, please be sure you know what that means. I just have to say that I'm an independent woman, partly due to need and partly due to personality! I rely on myself for almost everything, and, when I can't do it myself, it ticks me off to no end! LOL!!!! I lack skills in major automotive needs, carpentry, and plumbing (I'm getting better with this skill, though. I recently replaced the refill valve and the flexible line to the refill valve on my toilet... on the first try... with no leaks! Not a cure for cancer or an end to world hunger, but it's still an accomplishment. LOL). All of those skills are needed on a daily basis here at the "money pit". It's not easy for me to ask for help (MAJOR UNDERSTATEMENT), but I'm working on it! Also, since I am an independent "kinda" girl, I promise I won't be your "mom". I figure if you're on this site, and are an adult, then you don't need me to be your mom. And, conversely, I figure that you know that I had a dad (one of the greatest men I ever had the pleasure of knowing, btw), so I don't need another one. In other words, I won't tell you what to do and how to do it, and I am sure that you will treat me with the same respect. I'm also not a Cling-On (not to be confused with a Klingon from Star Trek... although, I'm not one of those, either), nor do I wish to be a conjoined twin. I will let you wear your big boy pants and play with your friends without me there, and I would hope that you would allow me to do so with my friends. By no means does that mean that I am not invested in a relationship. In fact, quite the opposite is true. If you're an adult, then you deserve to be treated as such. If you mess that up, you will have to deal with the consequences. If you feel the need to cheat or to lie, then I know you'll understand my need to say, "Vaya con Dios!" TOUGH LOVE HURTS, but I'm a firm believer that, by the age of 40, you should be able to be honest with yourself and others in what you are looking for in life. I don't understand the thrill people get from cheating or lying. If you must cheat, try doing it while playing Poker or a board game like Monopoly. As for what I'm looking for... I base things on personality and compatibility more than on looks or bank account/material possessions. I do look for wit and humor to be a large part of a man's personality, as well as someone who treats others with respect, kindness, and compassion. I love a guy that smiles... a genuine smile. Good heavens, if I can smile all the time, despite the freakin' huge dimples it creates on my face, then I think a guy can muster up a genuine one, too! Family must be important to him (or, at least, being part of a family or the idea of being part of a family), as well. I am not looking for casual encounters, and I really prefer not to be called "Doll", "Honey", etc., the first time a man contacts me. It feels a little cheap to me. Sorry, it's just how I feel. I prefer non-smokers, please.Apparently, some men feel that this profile is too direct and/or too long. If that is the case, I wish you well on your continued journey in search of that perfect catch! P.S. A cat "adopted" me last year ***. Trust me, even though I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE animals, I wasn't looking to be a "mom" again; however, Kaleb the Cat has moved right in, as if he has always lived here. No one has claimed him (It's been over a year now.), so, I guess, I belong to him. So, if you don't like cats, move on, please. Kaleb doesn't act as if he's moving out anytime soon!****PRIVACY NOTICE**** :Warning--any person and/or *** this website or any of its associated websites, you do NOT have my permission to utilize any of my profile information nor any of the content contained herein including but not limited to my photos.

    I love to laugh, enjoy life and have a great time. I love the beach, music, working out and traveling when I can. I believe in integrity and treating people the way you would like to be treated. I always view the positive outcomes with situations, and truly believe that you create your life by your thoughts. I love the natural beauty of the earth, and always find something to be grateful for. I love the LORD and I could never picture my life without him. I'm not interested in dating married men or men that are emotionally unavailable. I would appreciate it if you could please have photos posted to your profile. I like to laugh, talk and get to know a guy. I think you should keep it simple the first time you meet someone to see if its mutual, that you would like to meet up again. I love talking with a man about what his interests are and what he likes to do, also for me to share my interests with him. The more conversation you exchange with each other the easier it becomes to communicate.

    I love horses. I recently graduated from school as a surgical technician and I am excited about that because I believe it will better my life. I have 3 wonderful daughters, one is ***is 17 and one is 13. I will do anything for them. They are my everything. I live in the country and I love it I couldn't imagine living with people every where. LOL I love the fact I can look out of my kitchen window and watch our horses grazing or the crazy little dogs chasing them, not realizing one good kick and well it would not be good. I love country and rock music. I enjoy watching movies either at home on the couch or going to movies. I have been told I am a good cook and I enjoy cooking when I have someone to cook for the kids either don't want normal food or are all on the run to go see a friend.Please excuse how I look in the pic with the flounder. Lol I had been on a boat all night flounder gigging and that pic was taken about 5am.I am really tired of having my heart broken I have never cheated on any man and never plan to. I am a honest faithful loving woman that just wants to find a man who wants the same who wants to experience the joys of finding and falling in love with a good woman. I find that many men on here say they want a good woman when really that doesn't seem to be most of the men on here's main objective. No I am not talking about all men on here but I will say most men on here. I have meet a few good men on here that yes we dated for a good while, I have no regrets not all relationships work out I guess. I am looking forward to the rest of my life and hope to find a good man to enjoy it with me!7y i would say dinner and a walk just the opportunity to get to know each other! :)
