About Me

I have decided to update my profile. We should all do that every once in a while shouldn’t we? Reexamine ourselves…So first let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a single mother of two wonderful teens that live with me 100% of the time ***cats). I recently went back to school and now work with special-needs children, which I really enjoy. However, I am contemplating going back to school in the fall to work towards a diploma. I am happy and in good spirits 99% of the time regardless of what life throws my way. I still consider myself a ‘happy endings’ type of person. I have a sarcastic sense of humor. I have been described as quirky and like the fact that, at times, I can be a big goof. I don’t mind laughing at myself and love to make others laugh. I am not afraid to make an ass of myself and consider myself a pretty confident person. I still sing Christmas Carols badly, eat chocolate, snore, and dance around the house (without good dance moves). I love to read, am a movie fanatic, enjoy cooking, and am trying to find the motivation to be a more active person. I am still very curious about life and think I look and act younger than I am.Here’s the main reason I wanted to update my profile. I’ve noticed a lot of people state that they don’t want someone with scars or emotional baggage. But doesn’t that just mean that you haven’t really lived or loved? I have scars, how can I not? At 42 I can say that I have loved and I have been hurt. This doesn’t mean I don’t want to try again, and it certainly doesn’t mean that I am not a trusting person. I still believe in true love. What I have noticed is that, as we get older, we tend to think our perfect match will be perfect from the get go and I’m not sure that’s realistic. We all have faults, no one is perfect. I have blue days, I don't yell often but it happens, my ass is bigger than I'd like it to be. Basically, I'm human. There are going to be things about me that annoy you. The question is, does the good outweigh the bad? Can you look past those idiosyncrasies, even get a chuckle out of them? I’m looking for a partner that will compliment me, not complete me. I am hoping for a mutually supportive, fun relationship full of romance, caring, tenderness, and laughter.I have been divorced for over ten years. While it was crushing at the time it was the best thing to happen to me. I have become a confident and capable woman in that time. It made me the woman I am today and a great mother. I am a catch (excuse the fishing reference)! So, all those scars and baggage help make us the person we are – and propel us to become the person we wish to be.I’m going to end with a quote by Marilyn Munroe, “I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.” And my best is pretty damn good!I don’t mean for this to sound materialistic but it has been an issue in the past so I will address it. I am a single mother supporting two children on my own. Finances are always an issue and I live on a very modest budget. I cannot afford fancy trips or expensive dates, not that I wouldn’t enjoy them. I just feel guilty that I cannot reciprocate. Many in my age range seem to be at a more comfortable place financially while I see myself as just getting started, or starting over. Hmmm, I'd like to start with a few *** phone calls and then we can chat about a get together, maybe a walk or coffee/tea?... We all know there has to be some kind of physical spark.

    I'm a sane, drama free, BBW who is looking for someone to share her life with. I repeat, share her life with...lol. I have a life that I enjoy very much and am only missing that special man. I have no desire to be a man's everything and I have no desire for a man to be my everything. (Translatation, I'm independent and not needy or clingy. I LOVE music, particularly classic and new rock. Queen is my favorite band with AC/DC and Nickelback the runners up. ABBA is my guilty pleasure...lol I could live without a TV but there is no way I could live without a radio or CD player. I like the other usual suspects, tv and movies. I'm an exceptional cook, so you won't go hungry! Football is my favorite sport and NASCAR comes in a close second, so I won't be nagging at you for watching the game or the race on Sunday. I'll be sitting beside you watching too! I enjoy entertaining and hosting parties, so bring your friends over and let's mingle. Coffee or dinner is a nice first date. It lets you talk and get to know one another, which is the point of a first date...lol
