I am the mother of 3 wonderful daughters, 18, 16 and 10. They consume much of my life right now, although now that custody issues have been resolved with my ex, I look forward to some much needed "me" time. I work full time as office manager, after many years of being a homemaker. I am enjoying this new status in my life - makes me feel all adult and responsible.

I enjoy good friends and fun times. I have the best friends in the world and they are a huge part of my life. I love to laugh. A karaoke bar and a few shots of Patron make for an interesting evening.

I have a true, deep love in my heart for God, but I am not judmental or religious. I believe God truly wants the best for me, and if I look, I shall find. I want to be the best mother/example I can be for my girls, be proud of who I see in the mirror every morning, live my life to the fullest with no regrets, and die happy and fulfilled.

I am interested in an honest relationship, with an honest man. I don't enjoy playing the games; at 49 you wouldn't think I'd have to play them. So please, say what you mean, and mean what you say. Men with integrity seem to be a rare find.

My taste in music is broad - country to metal ~ right now, the louder, the better.

I enjoy simple things, I'm laid back and low maintenance. I love romance and surprises. If I give you my heart, it's yours, but I'm very careful/cautious who I give it to.

Unless there's been some "getting to know you" time on the phone, before the date, I think the first date should be casual and in a public place. A little dinner, conversation, and observation to see if there is any interest in a second date.
