I am a single mother. My daughter is the world to me. Don't be concerned with a woman looking for a daddy figure for her child. Evelyn has a father. I am more concerned with finding people I can connect with.

I am a very down to earth woman. I tend to "trim-the-fat" from my life, and by that I mean people who are going to cause or create drama, or be shady in any way I tend to let fade away quickly. If you are loyal, honest, and considerate I will respond with the same amount of respect for you. I am a very honest person. I just don't have the patience for bullshit. And the only games I play are by Milton Bradley.

I love the outdoors, deep conversations and being a smart ass. I have a very strong sense of independence, and connecting with some men can be difficult. I'm an open book, but sometimes I struggle with letting people in. Truthfully though, anything else you want to know, all you ever have to do is ask.

Trying to find a career path that utilizes my degree and doesn't include carrying service trays and unlimited bowls of pasta. I also focus a lot on my daughter. She's amazing.

cooking, writing, acting, conversation, finding reasons to procrastinate, picking out awesome movies and being quick witted.

my eyes and warm smile for those who bother to look above the neck. Those who don't may notice other outlining features of my figure. <_<...>_>

I'm terrified... and people always ask me to be specific in the explanation of this statement. It's simple. I'm afraid... and as to what scares me, I'll have to know you better before I confide those.

You are open to meeting new people, love to laugh and are not an asshole. If you are seeking a damsel-in-distress, someone to share your drama with, or your next FB [fill in your own definition] then you should really just move along. I'm not interested in any of those things.
