My children are now young adults and living their own lives but of course are very special to me. My friends have been a Godsend to me & I love spending time with them.

I'm half Italian, sprinkled with Scottish, French Canadian and a bit of Irish, a mutt but with character. I love catching live music - classic rock, country and the blues are my favorites. Meeting friends after work for appetizers is always fun but I also enjoy cooking as well for anyone that appreciates my efforts.

I enjoy anything near or on the water during the warmer months. I do like animals - but don't have the time to devote to one of my own these days, although in the past, I've have a wide variety...dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, turkeys and horses. My kids loved them all and I did my best to help nurture their passion for animals.

I like fixing things around my home and can usually get the job done or try my best anyway. My toolbox can match that of any guys' and my friends make fun of that fact. They laugh that I know how to use the tools I do have and my trips to Home Depot. If something fun comes up tho, oh well...fix it projects get put on hold.

I love cooking, great wine, sewing, painting and keeping busy with projects...pretty boring some might say but I like my life. But I also enjoy being out with friends...Life is too short not to make as many great memories as possible.

Pet Peeve....people who cannot spell correctly or cannot express themselves verbally. I'd like to meet someone honest and with conviction but FUN and can laugh at themselves and not take life too seriously. Is that possible?

Meeting for lunch works...
