About Me

It is always fun to meet the occassional new person, broaden one's horizons, act outside the box etc. Reviewing summer, I went to many ole favaourite lakes, Durance and Cameron, several times, and I made it to one new, to me, lake - Spectacle Lake. I went camping five times between May and August, and aim to camp more next summer. Cycling is something I really enjoy, and is so much more fun to do with at least one other person, and I got to cycle with my kid a fair bit this past spring and summer. I have a very nice Italian custom-made road bike I brought back from Italy. I also spent three years in Japan. I like planning, and am pretty organized, and my two career paths (education and mental health and addictions) are slowly coming to harmonize in a very meaningful way for me. Apparently compatible with Libra, Aquarius, Gemini, Capricorn, late Cancer and late Virgo if you are interested in the Astrology take. Monkeys like me are known to play well with rats and dragons too. I am the oldest child and am most compatible with the youngest or the only child. Since doing triathlons in Japan, and biking long in Italy, I now work on being satisfied with the lesser amount of exercise freedom I have since my awesome kid was born in ***single mom by choice). When my kid is in his Karate class, I am watching from a stationary bike or a yoga mat. When my kid is in his swimming lessons, I savour vigorous laps for the precious 30 minutes. When my kid is in his tennis lesson, I yoga. I teach yoga, as a sub, whenever I can too. I have my kid full-time, and am just starting to see glimpses of the potential to get more exercise - perhaps I will be doing triathlons with my son one day. So my favourite thing to do with a new person would be to exercise together, even if just at conversation pace. I have also started mindful meditation practice, with a group, this winter too. What makes me unique....I don't have tattoos and I don't want any. I don't drink coffee regularity, but if I do drink coffee, it has to be a decaf. Having a very keen sense of smell, coffee and garlic breath bother me. I have a bit of a Tomboy personality, but I do not swear, use derogatory humour, or assumptions, aimed at anybody. I succeed at some minor house hold improvements, such as putting up my own curtain rods or waterproofing my own pic-nic table. I would like to make my own shoe rack/tower one day. I do like being womanly, and take some pride in my appearance without feeling I need make-up- hey at least it is not going to get any worse. I am not the "princess" type, yet do not mind a door being opened for me or a tea being bought for me. I am usually pretty open-minded. I am told I have a great sense of humour and I really like it when I can make people laugh and smile. I aim to improve myself in various ways. Be the improvement in my diet (already no pork, beef, heavy carbs, white death (white sugar) or regular dairy consumption), parenting, social interactions, furniture arrangement, manners, personal hygiene or facial tics; I am always looking to improve myself ;) I like cooking. I am frequently told by my kid and my friends that I am a good cook. I like making Japanese food sometimes, like miso soup. I also make my own homemade granola bars with coconut oil *** butter, and homemade museli with my own roasted pecans. Now that it is colder, I make soup from my own stock. I am detail-oriented, and I value communication. I'm an occasional Walmart and Costco shopper (so why don't you shoot me baby!), yet am highly considering going vegan. Very occasional drinker. I don't like to socialize at bars. I aim for balance in diet, lifestyle, and on the yoga mat ;)I value friendship. I am not against getting into a sexual relationship, but it is definitely not the be all, end all for me - yet by no means am I asexual (interesting documentary titled by the very word, by the way). Most of my relationships start with friendship, and end with sometimes an even better friendship. My intention here is to make another friend, possibly more over time. I am not into internet chatting. Just *** enough, and what I aim for is less time in front of sceens. I do like to talk on the phone though, see if we get along voice to voice before stepping it up to face to face. ***, word processing and work related computer time is more than enough screen time. Yoga music is nice, like Shastro and Down City Dwellers. I used to think the best music is that that you can dance to, but over the years I have come to appreciate the mellower melodies as well. I pretty much enjoy most kinds of music except for rap and some country. Most of my listening when I need to drive (I prefer to cycle when distance and weather permit) is to CBC radio. My kid loves the Zucchero CD I brought back from Italy. I stay away from big concerts with big crowds that are really loud. I've volunteered at Bluegrass Music festivals a lot, and enjoy the Bluegrass Festival atmosphere. I will not respond to those with no pictures, near naked pictures, all distant pictures, or pictures with big sunglasses on.Meeting somebody is not a date to me - much too strong of a word. I would call it "meeting," and we can figure it out together...It is nice to check out each others voices over the phone before meeting. Guaranteed if we don't like each others voices, we will not like each other in person either.

    Woman. 45 years old. Zodiac sign: Scorpio.

    Looking for: man. In age: 35-55

    PLEASE BE: --->LOCAL TO HOUSTON --->BETWEEN ***>CAUCASIAN OR HISPANIC I don't date AA men --->NOT MARRIED OR IN ANY TYPE OF RELATIONSHIPThanks for reading my profile. I'm not perfect nor am I seeking perfection. If I told you everything about me in this box, we wouldn't have the opportunity to get to know each other. I’ll try and hit the high notes. If you like what you read, shoot me an ***, what do you have to lose? I'm sure everyone says the same things, but....I'm funny - or at least that's what the little guy in my head says :-). A sense of humor is important to me as I love to laugh. It's even better if we both start laughing and end up crying from laughing so hard – it’s priceless. I'm loyal, witty, and cute ;***oh, and sarcastic at times as well. I like the movies, either at home or the theater. I love CONCERTS and live music - I enjoy the Buzzfest and alternative rock as well as classic rock. I'm just as happy hanging out at the house with good company having a great conversation. I enjoy family/friend trips - camping, a beach house, vacation spots - any place where good times are had with people I care about. I also enjoy doing my own thing and don't require constant entertainment from another.I look at life as an adventure. Although life may present challenges, you have to appreciate the ride and take from it what you can. If you hit a bump, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, learn from it, and keep on moving.I appreciate education, articulation and someone that can write eloquently. However, I understand that a formal education doesn't make someone intelligent!Finding the right person is a process; however, I'm not a serial dater nor am I looking for one. I'm looking to meet someone that likes to have fun and enjoy one another's company. I'm not looking to get in to an immediate relationship but If something meaningful developed, I wouldnt be opposed to that. Communication is key to any type of successful relationship. I'm a very open and honest person and I'm looking for the same.So, I've either scared you off or intrigued you - if it's the later send me a message and let's see if we have something in common.Something simple where we can talk and get to know each other and decide if another date is on the agenda.
