“Only as high as I reach can I grow,
only as far as I seek can I go,
only as deep as I look can I see,
only as much as I dream can I be.”

Nothing of major importance really. I'm finding myself really wishing for some new adult company lately. My friends are great and all, but I need something of the male variety to spice it up a bit. I love my kids and spend most of my time with and for them.....however, I'm not ashamed to say I'm missing having a man to fuss over/cook for/cuddle up to. I'm old fashioned in a lot of my values and love to give to a man as well as receive those special sentiments that you can't really get from friends and family. I do believe we were meant to walk on this earth with a mate. Independence is great, but I don't want to die alone in a house full of books (can't say cats, i'm allergic!).

******I don't think the mail features work properly. If you've emailed me and I haven't responded, please try again. I always respond to emails. Thanks!
edit: I should say I always respond to emails that look real. Things that smack of spam get blocked, sorry if that includes a few random real people.

Hi and thanks for stopping by!!! I've been divorced over a year now and ready to move on with life and love. Can't wait to meet some great new friends and possibly get a date or two!!! I'm a fluffy person so if your one of "those people" who runs for the hills when an overweight woman walks in then start running baby! The pictures in my profile are all me. Some are older than others, just to show different facets of myself. The ones closer to the top are the most recent (except the fun ones of course!).

A little bit about me. I work 2 jobs, but do it in such a way I am still home every evening with my kids. I am an awesome mom and I work hard at instilling values and morals into my girls. I had a great childhood and want them to have the same! I'm a geek at heart and have belonged to an online computer chat room for 7 years. I read a lot. Mostly girly novels filled with love and romance. You know, chick stuff! I love the outdoors, the sunshine and most of all water. I like to dance and sing and act like a goofball with people I trust. I always try to see both sides of a story, and play devil's advocate quite frequently, even when it's to my own detriment. I actually like listening to Dr. Laura. I don't like people who make fun of others to get laughs, especially any jokes about mentally challenged individuals/short bus jokes or people who use the word "retard" a lot. That's enough for now............

I'm loving life and enjoying just feeling alive again after many years and I refuse to let anyone tear my confidence down. I'm changing parts of me because I know they need changed, but I won't change because someone told me to, what's inside of me is kind and genuine and that's what matters. I'm here for the real deal........people who are interested in personality and intelligence, people who are open minded and like to laugh and have fun! Throw me a line and let's chat!



ANYHOW........here's to a good day on Mingle 2 (formerly a JSH'r) and I hope all your dreams come true!!!!!   Send me a message!
