About Me

I'm retired but still full of spirit and silliness and think of myself as an individualist. My photos are recent and have been told I look quite sophisticated. It's how I look, NOT how I am. Actually, I'm very down-to-earth and unpretentious and prefer people who are the same. I was blessed to have inherited my Dad's sense of humor and you'll usually find me smiling or laughing at the absurdities of life. I usually make the best of things even when they don't go my way. I enjoy my home but like getting out, seeing new places and trying new things. I enjoy using my mind and have an interest in a wide variety of things. The things that make me most happy are very often the simplest things... time with friends, flea markets & yard sales (hoping to find an unexpected treasure), people watching, preparing a meal together (I'm a pretty good cook), going for a drive stopping for lunch at some charming spot we will find along the way. I've been single for a very long time and to tell the truth, I've never found the single life particularly satisfying. I enjoy being with others and what would make me most happy would be to find a parter I can love and cherish and share the joys life has to offer. I'm affectionate but not over-bearing, intelligent but not a know-it-all and I am considerate and thoughtful of others. There are many things I enjoy, but doing becomes delight when I can share it with the one I love. Honesty is most important and I treat others, including myself, with respect and fairness. Being able to share some of my interests with my partner is important to me but I think the most important thing to share is our values, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise when we disagree. I think it's also important to respect our needs for private time.I have a delightful dog, a Havapoo (Havanese/poodle) who goes by the name, Shana. She's 12 lbs, very sweet and calm, and all who meet her love her. My music tastes run from jazz, the old standards, to the classics. I've been singing jazz all my life and a couple of years ago decided to study the craft and learn proper singing technique to preserve my voice till death do us part. I love a good discussion on many subjects: (currents events, what's been happening in our lives, sharing something we have recently read, thought provoking or funny movies, musicals and documentaries. Having said all that, I think the most important things in a relationship are the values we share, our ability to communicate with each other and our willingness to compromise if or when we don't agree and a respect for our needs for privacy. I am not a religious person but live my life with honesty, integrity and love. And after all is said and done, I'd love to meet someone who is kind, romantic, has some smarts, and is healthy with a healthy sense of humor and who lives within 50 miles of Portland. What's inside is more important to me than appearances although I must admit to finding excessive weight a turn-off.I think I'll end on that note and hope what I've written appeals to you.I prefer a first date to be very casual, meeting in a quiet, public place for coffee or perhaps to share a light meal. We'll get to know a bit about each other and share a few laughs. If all goes well we'll make plans to meet again. :-}

    Well I have been out with a few people from this site and have met some very nice people just not the right one for me. I am totally into horses and a country/horsey lifestyle. If you do not like horses or are not willing to learn about them then please pass me by. I don't want to waste your time. So if you have that interest then please by all means read on. I am looking for someone to have fun with... be my best friend. Go on road trips at the spur of the moment,go trail riding with the horses and possibly horseshowing..I love going to the movies, sitting in an outside cafe and watch the people go by that are in too much of a hurry to just sit and enjoy simple pleasures. I like floating down the river or sitting in a boat fishing.I believe in honesty, I love to have someone make me laugh, it makes the day so much better. I love where I live and the lifestyle I have chosen. My horses are important to me. I like to lead a healthy active life that has some adventure, some fun, and spontinaity. I love my animals and my dear friends. Looking for an ATHLETIC type man that has a compasionate side that loves animals, and outdoor activities. Some one that would like to go dancing and to concerts and theatres. Some one to share the top of a mountain with, or fly off to a tropical destination. Someone who is at home and comfortable no matter where they are. I hate the cold, love the heat and can enjoy just about any outside activity in the sun. Love to dance and have fun. Consider myself to be humerous, witty, somewhat intelligent( hey I'm blonde!)and honest. I am independant and know what I am looking for in life. Looking for a relationship that won't get too serious too fast, as I just need some fun back in my life. . Humour is an asset. If you like skiing and cold activities that is fine too but I will be the one in the hot tub!!!just have fun, am fairly easy to pleaseMaybe take the dogs out for a walk....
