I consider myself to be pretty optimistic about life and people. My children are older now (two boys--22 and 20) and I have time to devote to a relationship. I don't take life too seriously and like things simple and down to earth, balanced, easy going and fun.

Hoping to find a kind and affectionate partner. Someone with family values, good manners and a touch of romance and adventure. A guy who knows the meaning of following through. Honesty and respect must be given and received. Spontaneity is definitely part of who I am but I am more of a planner when it comes to important decisions. I am looking for someone who knows what he wants and is already happy. I love to share great conversations over a glass of wine or a cold beer. That is when we get to share our real experiences of life. Would like to build a lasting relationship with the right person.

I……

adore children and love being a mom (my kids are adults now)

could never live without music, mostly classic rock, some country & other stuff too!

take great pleasure in helping others any way that I can

have lots of friends, many who have been for 20+ years

am a sucker for a romantic story whether it is a movie, book or a real experience

have a great sense of humour and playfulness and hope for the same in my partner

cry at touching moments (happy or sad)

work hard and value what I have earned

appreciate my family no matter how crazy they make me sometimes!

like to take off at a moment’s notice for a long drive or to explore a small town

want to fall in love again and look forward to it

am independent and can take care of myself but need hugs and encouragement from time to time

am not prefect and am not looking for perfection

I look forward to learning more about you……..

First meetings should be short and simple but you never know--sometimes the time flies if you are having fun. If that goes well, we can decide between us what to do next.
