1. I am just going to throw this out there because it bugs me; To the question "Do you want children?" I say "no" only because i can no longer have them. But i very much enjoy spending time not only with my friends but there children and mine as well. I love kids very much. I have 3 daughters that i find very fulfilling so in that was my decision to no longer have children. Sorry for the blurb, just seems the question may be taken as anti-child when not answered yes. That's it. ;)

2. Another weird thing i have noticed is that a lot of people do not accept E-mails from "looking for friends." Why's that? You barley know someone enough to form a relationship let alone a friendship online. Maybe after a few dates out and activities you will know them well enough to decide which side of the fence they may fall. Every person since i was 14 years old i have ever dated is now and still a good friend to me. Just a thought. Take care of yourselves now.

Mostly just hang out with family and few close friends. I am going back to school full time at Bethel College. Hoping to get three degrees in less then four years; A.A. (Human Services), B.S. (Human Services), B.S. (Bible & Ministry). 36 Credits a year + working full time might be a bit much while trying to make time for the family, but God said follow, so i guess i better listen.

I love food. gonna say food again because I really like great food from all across the world. Big Rachel Ray fan. Get me in a kitchen with decent cook ware and just about anything as far as ingredients goes and i will make something good to eat. I am very involved in church right now and would like make friends who share the same love for God as I do.

As for music i like county rock, r&b, hip hop, and even some pop, just about every kind of music. But my favorite type of sound falls under the title "Adult Alternative Rock." Which to me seems like a folk/alternative/rock/island mix. A lot of Christian artist fall under this which is good for me. Jason Mraz, Damien Rice, Brandon Heath are good examples.

As far as what i like to watch: Honestly I watch maybe about 2-6 hours of T.V. total a week and it is usually some kind of comedy or cartoons, like Family Guy or The Simpson's. Anything comedy! I also i have seen every cartoon released from the time i was born till current since i have 3 kids. A good sarcastic comedy is nice also. Like Juno, Napoleon Dynamite, or a nice Adam Sandler flick. Or some times with the right group an intellectual romantic comedy is a good night with popcorn.

I am a very down to earth person and also very emotional in a manly kinda away lol^^. Having 3 girls tends to bring out the softer side in guys i think. most of my guy friends with little girls are the same. I want to spend as much time on this earth and enjoy as much as i can so i try and take care of my self, you know eat right stay in shape don't drink to much or smoke to much, i am a social smoker and drinker though. Also God is very important to me! I am by no means a holy roller or perfect example, anyone who knows me will tell you that much. but i have Strong faith! I also find it very important to support others no matter what they believe. I have a very diverse family who do not share the same faith as me. But you HAVE to love everyone no matter if they are like you or not. That is one of the greatest commandments above all others is to love. I have not finished college yet but very much would like to some day. Just have to keep my head to the grind stone at Bethel these next few years and i will get there. I love to cook but more often then not i am cooking hamburger helper or mac and cheese then any thing fancy. Face it the more you jazz it up the less kids are gonna eat. And those wee bodies of flesh eat way to much food to go all, "I'm to good for Spartan brand!" I still pick up my guitar every once in awhile, not as much as i should but just enough to not forget how to play.

Well I hope that is enough for a starter. As far as what i am looking for, really...I am not sure, just some good friends both female and male. Some time life has cause to take a huge step back and start over that is where I am at i guess. Just rebuilding a whole new chapter. What the future holds only God knows. I just pray each day to let Him guide me to serve Him. And in that, life will be fulfilling and the people, friends, family, and the lady I am meant to spend the rest of my life with will be there with me on that path.

Would like to go to a local botanical garden (Bring your hiking boots) and possibly a wine and Micro Beer tour of southwestern Michigan. Maybe a good dinner and a movie to end it all. But hey that's me, what do you want to do?
