If I had to describe myself (and I guess I have to), I would say that I am a sweet but shy girl, honest, a very hard-worker, giving to my family and friends, funny, intelligent, slightly adventurous, and open to trying new things. I don't make judgments, especially on appearance alone. I have fairly traditional values, but that is coupled with a pretty solid sense of independence. I own my own home and vehicle, plus I run a business which takes up a great deal of time. I don't really have any hobbies because of this, but I have Rider season tickets, will play as much golf as I can in the summer, and occasionally take classes if scheduling permits.

A few of my favorite things: chocolate, fresh-baked bread, the smell of rain, sleeping in, cats and dogs and their noses, shoes, walks around the lake, good music, good friends, my nieces and nephews, casual Fridays, tropical vacations, the Riders and Grey Cup trips, red wine and cold beer.

I am looking for someone honest, intelligent, down-to-earth, funny and fun-loving to spend time with and maybe share life with.

I like to keep it traditional: a drink, a meal, or something as simple as a walk. But I'm open to suggestion.
