I'm happy, playful and maintain a zenlike attitude - make each day the best possible and you will look back to see a life well lived. I believe I have my priorities straight - Kids, home, career, art, cooking, friends, family, great conversation, belly laughs, dogs and on and on with canoeing, driving, and keeping warm all on the list somewhere. I work to maintaining a sweet day-to-day life and feel lucky to say I am successful. I work as an illustrator and toy designer and find play irresistible. I am a strong and quick conversationalist who would love to meet her verbal match, but it's not about hearing myself, I want to hear what you have to say and share life views. I love music of most sorts, am wacky but practical, sensual but careful, open-minded, left wing, and always up for a new adventure. So far, few challenges have been too big.

I work, I draw, I design toys. I have two adored children and love a new adventure. I celebrate holidays to the fullest...any reason to celebrate! I've got a couple of mostly well-behaved dogs and lots of wonderful life long friends. I would like to travel more than I have, so a travel partner would be heaven.

Changing tires, canoeing, drawing, cooking/baking, staring contests, bringing levity to any situation.

Big, blue eyes....

Lots of pillows, chicken, goldfish, pens/pencils/paper, my giant, oversized clock, Pearson nut rolls...is that 6?

my fears that I'm not as normal as I think I might be.

relieved that the pressure to focus is over.

Shhhhhhh.......

You're not bitter over your ex, have energy, treat wait staff with dignity and respect, are not a republican, are playful, do not have an alcohol "issue". If anyone has told you that you have a drinking problem, please don't write.
