I'm an affectionate and attractive lady ( I humbly report...often referred to as pretty) with a well developed sence of humor and wit. In the past I lived overseas,and enjoyed making new friendships which I still have after many years.I'm considered a good cook and enjoy sharing with people accordingly. I'd like to meet an attractive gentleman who shares with me a mutual attraction and chemistry and as a result, look forward to a strong long lasting relationship with someone I consider a good friend as well as intimate companion. I have 3 happy and successful adult children who live in another state and I became a grandma for the first time in June 2008...what a treat! UPDATE....grandchild #2 October 2009...double treat!
I'm a good listener and empathetic when appropriate. Love to dance, the outdoors ie: hiking, biking and in the past..tennis. I enjoy movies and theatre, but at the same time I enjoy being a homebody. Music of many kinds have been known to soothe this "savage beast"...pop, jazz, classical, opera.

My first date would include communicating with this person in the hopes that there will be a "connection". Often this involves something as casual as coffee or a drink in the process.
