I am a very happy woman right NOW. I have an open and capacious heart. Painting is a long time passion. Golf is FUN. Early this year I enjoyed snorkeling in Kona, HI. I enjoy CONVERSATION and just BEING with you; I'm an avid reader and it'd be great if you enjoy reading, too. Watching TV together is good -- I enjoy The Mentalist, Medium right now. I'm proactive about my health and expect you to be taking really good care of yourself.
Tonight I went out to look at the sunset -- tomorrow I'll pick some roses for a bouqet -- do you stop to smell the flowers? I LOVE flowers!
Listening to music is really a good thing to do -- there is a song (in Portuguese) by Catarina Valente, Azul Lau, that just sends me. Do you know it?
Goals and aspirations are to continue interacting with good friends and to grow as a person one day at a time. My goal and aspiration is to find a compatible companion --I am not interested in being a "trophy" girlfriend; yes, I just complimented myself; I'm a very interesting lady, perpetually curious about a variety of subjects.
I love to keep my mind sharp having fun with such games as Boggle, Scrabble; putting together puzzles. I hope you do, too. You'll have to be a good sport because I'm competitive.
One thing that makes me unique is I was born on the 4th of July, America's birthday and I have a quirky, zany sense of humor. I'm told I'm related to Lady Godiva -- really!-- and I kissed Soupy Sales. I have a mortgage-less home.
I am a great travel partner and love making new friends. I have a perpetual curiosity about many subjects, love researching and learning new things. I've had lots of fun with genealogy and travelled to Nova Scotia, Canada to my dad's birthplace.
I love classical music, country folk -- I'm NOT fond of sad, twangy country music. Banjo and yukelele music is wayy cool.

Meeting at a coffee shop during the day would be good for a first date -- or meeting at an art gallery if there is mutual interest. If we don't live close we can meet midway somewhere. What are some of your interests??? Invite me to some event in which you have avid interest.
