Okay, well I’ve had my profile up here for awhile with very minimal information about myself. I realized how hypocritical this was of me as I found myself complaining about the lack of information on the profiles I was reading of others. I have also sent out some messages to some guys that were immediately deleted by what I thought were some of my future potential soul mates! “How dare you!!! Don’t you know what you’re missing???” I would scream at my cold heartless monitor…..oh monitor, you will never know my pain!

I should mention at this point that when coming on line after putting in my very secret password (oh just try, you will never guess what it is, because I’m clever, yes I’m blonde and clever)… After a few tries, and then being directed into my mailbox, I would quickly delete any new messages.
Karma, I’m sure of it.

Despite this, I am having a lot of fun on this site. I am constantly amused by those who are brave enough to let it all hang out, and who knows, if I let my guard down long enough, I might actually talk to someone again!

Okay, so after some advice from a few of my single friends, who by the way have excellent profiles on this site, I am going to do my best to tell you a little about myself.
For most of my 20’s my life revolved around sailing. I have been fortunate enough to sail/teach sailing and live in some amazing places that this planet has to offer.
My 30’s saw me coming home to what I truly feel is the most beautiful place on earth. Now, this is completely presumptuous of me as although I have lived in a few different places, I still have not seen very much of the world, but I love the place I was born and raised. Vancouver Island. Truth is, there are a lot of #$%@holes out there, and we (on the island) don’t happen to live in one.

Okay, what may make you click on the Back key.

I’m short. There’s no way I can hide it. Even in the highest of high heels! (Hey I’m the same height as Jada Pinkett Smith and we BOTH look hot in heels)The good news though; I’m not short and out of shape. That’s saying a lot at my age. I attribute this to living healthy, I’m not fanatical or anything, I just have never had the urge to eat the whole pie.
I’m sarcastic. Now, I have gotten better at taming the beast as I’ve gotten older, but also in my defense, not only can I dish it out, I can take it. Special honours are always given out to anyone who can come up with a blonde joke that involves dwarfism.
I’m a single Mom of a three year old. We are a team as I am her only parent.
Creative Cooking….I am very good at cooking when I stick to the rules…I don’t always stick to the rules, but dammit...I will do the dishes when it all goes awry!!!!

Things that will make me hit the Back key.

Moustaches….I’m sorry…I’m truly sorry! You could be on the top ten list of hottest guys in the world and at my door with a bouquet of roses and I would still be incredibly turned off. Interestingly, this does not include other forms of facial hair. It's something I could probably use some therapy over.
Debt…..I can’t deal with people who can’t intelligently handle their money. I’m not talking about having to be a millionaire. I’m not, but other than a mortgage (a small one) I have no debt! I don’t understand those who do. Especially credit cards….18% to 25% interest on the total…On the total!!!! That’s even after you start paying it off……oooh don’t get me started!
Postscript: On the re-read, it sounds like I’ve had credit problems in the past. I haven’t, I just happened to catch a compelling 20/20 episode a while back.
Which brings me to people who will cancel plans to be with other people to stay home to watch a TV. show…..Nobody ever remembers the show!!!! Okay, except for the odd Seinfeld episode….who the hell ever remembers what was so important on TV. that you had to stay home for it.
Lack of responsibility....and whining about it. I'm not talking about the type of whining one does when their favorite ceramic cow goes missing, I'm talking about the type of whining one does when they feel others are responsible for what has happened to them in life. I myself have made good decisions, and plenty of bad ones as well. But it has always been me who has had the final say.

I thought I should probably add a quick spiel on what makes a good friend. This is important because it is the actions of who we admire and love that make true friends.
Example: A good friend is someone who you can steal something from, say, some useless, crappy pathetic ornament that they adore and admire on a daily basis. Then after it is gone, listen to them moan and complain on what happened to said object throughout the entire year. Then one year later, package up said crappy useless item in very nice festive wrap and give back to said friend that following year for Christmas and have that friend laugh so hard that the following year’s gift is a package of Depends.

So like everyone else on this site, I will add: I love being outdoors, I love a good laugh…..etc....etc.......I’ve BEEN TOLD I’m absolutely fabulous!!



Why I chose these pictures:
pic 1 I thought it was important to show you I've been to a Subway restaurant.
pic 2 I am an independent strong woman who can assemble items from Ikea.
pic 3 I own a Tilley hat that has yet to make it through the digestive system of an elephant
pic 4 I was once a baby.

In Honour of my Mom, I miss my partner in crime & giggling.

Pretty basic: A walk, a coffee in the afternoon. I think people need to talk in person to know if there is a connection.
Of course if you show up in your very own private jet, I may be willing to waive the connection thing.
