What can I say about my interests other than: "Variety is the spice of life”. Reading, conversation, movies, walking, visiting family, horseback riding, travel, music, and many more things interest me, at least for a time. I believe Profiles are difficult to word, especially when you’re trying to put your best foot forward. I like life to be simple with some spontaneity mixed in here and there. Also, touching and shows of affection are high on my list.
About my children: I still have one child at home whom, I believe to be is an exceptional kid (of course). He's 13 and in the 7th grade, so he is an important part of my life right now. I have 3 other grown children (ages 32 down to 21) and 5 grandkids. My 2 oldest live a bit far from me but we try to stay in touch.
As far as what I'm looking for in a man, it’d be nice to find someone who has experienced life, it's disappointments as well as achievements. Open mindedness is great. I'm more settled now than I was in my younger days when I'd jump my horse over anything I could find. So, extreme sports would be a watch only thing for me now. I'll watch as you try to kill yourself. LOL! Animals, especially horses and dogs have always been a delight to have in my life. I have been blessed to have many great ones to remember. It would be a pleasure to learn to line dance, shag and maybe even belly dance. My father loved music, so we heard a lot of different types and styles of music as my brothers, sisters and I grew up. Again, variety is nice. Celtic music is a personal favorite of mine, but other musicians are just as enjoyable to listen or dance to.
Life should be lived to the fullest. It is such a fragile and short term thing. As we age, hopefully we mature. It would be lovely to have a companion to grow and have adventures together.
My special someone will enjoy conversations, quiet times, and closeness. Being a rich, great looking guy is not at the top of my list, though I wouldn't throw him out if everything else was great. LOL! It is important that he have a generous heart full of love to give.
I'm not financially rich. I guess I just lost a few readers. Oh well! Seriously though, I gave up a career to be with my kids. They are spread out: 32 - 13. So I've not been in a typical work environment for years. I did teach Learning Disabilities for a few years, successfully owned and operated a Show/Breeding kennel, train horses, do some art work, and hope to get into some other fun things and experiment with new ideas.
