YOU!!! (maybe) I am a fun, caring, silly yet serious person. My job can be quite stressful at times. So, relaxing and having FUN are priorities to me. I really enjoy being outside and near, in, or on water when I can do so.
My(single)life is pretty good. Well, pretty great. Though, I do still want someone special to share things with...Someone(a man/other than friends/family)to listen to my daily trials and triumphs. Someone to encourage me to be my best...I will do the same for him. The older I get; the more I realize health is of the greatest importance...physical, mental, and spiritual. If you are interested in improving these in your life; we may have something in common.
Honesty and integrity are the two most important things to me in ANY relationship. I do what I say I am going to do where others are concerned, and expect the same in return. I am a faithful friend, sister, daughter, godmother, auntie, and now a great auntie! I have been blessed with wonderful friends and family. I am so thankful for them and also believe there is always something to be grateful for...even when things don't go the way I hope.
I'd like to think there's still hope(even at this age)to find a lifetime partner. ...A "best friend" and "love for life." What I ultimately want is someone to unconditionally love me...and I will do the same for them. I guess those of you with children understand loving unconditionally. My parents were a great example of this. I believe in love that is forgiving, patient, and enduring. I really love my dogs. Maybe they're the children I never had. I've met some people(online and offline) who seem to pay less attention to their kids than I do to my dogs. Sad. Anyway, I enjoy being around children, and get along with them well.
Of course...it all starts with just going out and having FUN. : )
I am more than happy to meet new friends and outdoor activity partners(for things such as biking and kayaking)in the quest for a "romantic partner." It's always a pleasure to meet (good)new people...and, I am currently working on some fitness goals, so partners are quite helpful.
Lastly, I believe that open, direct communication IS essential. Even though I am often pretty perceptive; I am no mind reader. I believe time and life are precious gifts from God that are not to be wasted. I didn't always think/feel this way...Maybe if I did in the past; I wouldn't be here now. :)
How 'bout you? What do you want from Santa? ***okay...another note: maybe I AM pickier than I thought! I really dig it when a guy knows the difference between "their, there, and they're" and uses "women and woman" correctly. Oh, and when they can spell correctly what it is they do for a living...yeah, that's a 'turn on'. ;)

How about if we meet up for some snacks and beverages...then, see if we would like there to be a date? (possibly by the water)
