I like to [cook], [clean] and care for people. I am at home in jeans and social out in a dress. I normally dress in scrubs when working. I am shy at first but warm up to people easily. I enjoy creating [crafts] from odd things found around the house, watching sports ([football] / Saints), going to movies, and meeting interesting people. I write [poetry], and sketch pictures from my memory, I am not a person who lives by the clock or likes to talk on the phone. I am not the type to tell people what to do but will give an opinion on what I think should be done. I am not a big spender and very seldom spend money on myself. I like the natural beauty in life and love to commune with nature as an animal observer, although I do like to go fishing and do not disagree with those who hunt as long as it dose not consume your entire life.
I am looking for someone who is able to be decisive without being controlling. Someone who enjoys not only living in the moment but can make plans for the future without constantly changing your mind. Someone who is affectionate without being forceful, demanding or moving too quickly into a relationship. I would like to get to know a person in a friendship first and see where it leads...
I like [Reading], Putting [Puzzles] Together, [Drawing] and [painting], and watching game shows on [TV]..

I am Shy, Honest, and Loyal

I am starting over and alone for the first time in many years. I am discovering many new things about myself that I have never realized before. I would like to explore these new feelings with a partner who is willing to bring out the best in me.

Making people feel at ease in an difficult or embarrassing situation.
Getting Babies to stop crying, calm down, and fall asleep.
Teaching children things they need to learn.
Training animals to do something you want them to do.

My honest, warm, kind, and caring nature by looking into my eyes and seeing I am not out to harm anyone, but to be the your best friend.

Who Am I
I am the ghost that sits alone in a crowd that no one sees.
I am the soft voice that speaks out and yet no one hears.
I am the free spirit that lives among the the tall oak trees.
I am the broken heart-ed person who cries the lonely tears.
I am the light that shines from the forgotten lighthouse beacon.
I am the darkness of the stormy wave that crashes on the shore.
I am the silence that can be heard when the storm has weakened.
I am the lone castaway that is never found and lost for evermore.
I am the hidden star among the constellations in the night sky.
I am the wild yellow rose thriving on a mountain of solid rocks.
I am the grain of sand on a crowded beach everyone walks by.
I am the cracks in the sidewalk that goes on for many city blocks.
I am the woman who cries alone many long hours in the dark.
I am the woman who wipes away the tears and tries to be strong.
I am the woman talking to herself that you walk past in the park.
I am the woman who wants to fit into the places I don't belong.
I am the one craving the mysterious lover I desperately need.
I am the one searching for someone who cares about my life.
I am your friend, your outgoing partner, the wild rose seed.
I am the tender heart-ed, affectionate lady you seek in your life.
I am me! Who are you?

Gone With the Wind would sum up my life and all of the above.

1. My significant other...to wake me up gently with a kiss.
2. My children...All grown up now, yet still count on mom to be there for them.
3. My grandchildren...6 and 2 years old. They keep me young, and another one on the way.
4. My friends...They keep me honest.
5. My family...They keep me traveling.
6. My computer...It gives me a way of making new friends
7. My car...I need my freedom to travel and explore new places.

Where I have been, where I am now, Where I would like be in the future.

I think about meeting new people in the most interesting places. I would like to explore places like light houses, the rain forest, or the Grand Canyon, or Yellowstone National Park. Or I could stay closer to home and check out caves in the area. I like to explore new places with exciting people.

At home wishing I had someone to spend the evening with exploring new and exciting adventures or just meeting a new friend.

I will cry when a pet I had for a long time passes away but I don't cry at a Girlish, romantic movie. I hurt when you hurt and I am patient when you are angry.

You are willing to share your life with me as I will share my life with you.
I do not wish to do only the things you like to do as I am sure you would not like to fill your time doing the things I like to do all of the time. There should be equal communication and affection between both people...
I want a guy......

who can wrestle with me and let me win
who I can talk to about anything
who puts my cold hands in his warm pockets
who lets me use his sweatshirt for a pillow
who says I love you and means it
who will kiss me in the rain,in the sunshine and in the snow
who calls unexpectedly
who realizes I say things and don't really mean them
who I can go swimming with on hot days
who can tell me his problems and let me help
who will kiss me and tell me I am beautiful
who will simply be mine to hold
