I try to enjoy life to the fullest and believe that laughter is the best medicine.
I am very active, have no health conditions, take no medications, have great self confidence, and am excited about the new me!
I am a Christian and I do go to church.
I love to snuggle, love romance, and I am an affectionate person.
I love to listen to live music. I like country, R&B, soft rock, easy listening, classical, oldies, jazz, and I LOVE ELVIS :). But, don't really care for heavy metal, hard rock, techno, or rap.
I have friends and family from all walks of life, all races, sexual orientations, and religions. My friends and family are very important to me.
My pictures are all current and I tried to provide variety of good hair days/not so good hair days, makeup/no makeup, etc.
I am honestly 36 years old, I have a car, I have a home, I have tattoos, and I do have a full-time job.
I love to travel: I visit family in Seattle a few times a year, enjoy cruises (Alaska was awesome), love taking weekend road trips, and will be going to Ireland in the summer 2013.
I have one amazing kiddo who is now a senior in high school. I am looking forward to the empty nest, although I realize that I will probably take those words back when the time comes.

I work full-time and am considering going back to school. I enjoy spending time with my family (including my 4-legged family) and friends.

Being a mom, always being honest no matter what, snuggling, and genuinely caring about people.

I try to always smile! :)

I listen to mostly country, easy listening, r&b, jazz, blues, etc.
I love chic books (have a Nook) and chic flicks or comedies.

My family (including pups)
My friends
A car
Planes (have to be able to go see my mom, sister, and nephews)
My bath tub (love to soak after a long day)

Happiness!

Either home having game night, home reading my Nook, or out listening to a live band.
