I Would Describe Myself As

A little about me...
Very outgoing and cheerful. Always see the glass as half full. Healthy and fit. Love going to the gym. Like to run but not very good at it yet. Getting better.

Spontaneous and outgoing. I am a good listener and have a great sense of humor. I am a very relaxed and casual kind of person. I prefer slacks and sweaters to cocktail dresses, however I have never lost my love of playing Dress Ups.

I consider myself to be very creative. Sewing, Quilting and Needlearts have been my passion most of my life. My reading tastes alternate between poetry, classics and a good thriller. Cooking is high on my list of fun things to do together, especially as a prelude to a great evening at home with good company and good music and a bottle of wine. Enjoy most any kind of music including the classics.

I have been a widow for more than 3 years. I miss having someone in my life to share and enjoy the little pleasures and everyday miracles of just being alive and well and able to live life to the fullest.
I am looking for a partner/friend/soulmate who enjoys lots of laughter and is spontaneous, cheerful and energetic. At this stage of my life, I’m not into head games, so sincerity is essential. Someone who likes spending quiet times together. Someone who loves the outdoors, being on or near the water, whether it is a lake, ocean or river.

I have a large family and we do not need an excuse to get together for a big family BBQ and bash. The more the merrier.
My main photo was taken on Dec 5, 2009. The other was taken July 2 of this year. I cannot imagine living without the closeness of friends and family as well as chocolate, really good running shoes and my computer. Love dogs but do not have one right now. Seriously allergic to cats, so if your critter loving ways includes a cat I will have to pass.
