Date a woman from United States. Simply put, I am a caring, out going, thoughtful, compassionate, nurturing, and down to earth country girl. I enjoy almost anything outdoors, but honestly, I can pretty much find some way to turn any activity or circumstance into something fun or entertaining no matter where I am or who I'm with.
Meet a woman from Alabama, United States. Nana of 6 mom of 5. 3 boys and 2 girls. I own my home its not much but its mine. I will have my van paid for the end of this year. Widow since 2005. Miss goin out and doin things . I love to cook but I also like to eat out now and then. I like BBQ but I don't like to cook on the grill. I like sea food but I don't like boats. Lookin for a nice man that would like to have coffee and chat. See what happens after that. I like jokin and laughin and enjoyin life. I believe there is a time for all things and everything happens for a reason. I like animals but I don't have any pets just chickens and roosters. So I love on the ones the kids own. I enjoy walks and dancin, music and movies, a drink now and then. I don't smoke. That is a nasty hibit I quit 3 years ago. Thanks to the good Lord. I like to swim. My daughter has a pool, I go over and swim with the grandd kids now and then. That is a pretty good work out for me but I really do enjoy it. Not much else to say right now.
Date someone special from Alabama, United States. I have retired from the corp world and have re-discovered my first love...my art - my painting. (have added some photos) I am a very visual person and this is my way of expressing my thoughts and dreams.
I am Scots/Irish Sagittarius, I believe strongly in Honesty and Justice and sometimes get in trouble believing everyone else does too. I am Libertarian in my politics and my philosophy.
I'm an Army brat, lived in Germany for 3 and 1/2 years in the '50s, and visited as a Reservist (retired after 27 years).
Would love to go and see the rest of Europe with someone who loves to travel as much as I do. I also want to go "Cruising", have just renewed my passport. Love day trips and sometimes the best places are ones you've already been to. Don't want to spend ALL my time on the road I'm really pretty much of a home body, except for my "Red Hat" outings.
My match will have an adventurous spirit and love to learn new things as well appreciate the old... antiques and estate sales, flea markets and thrift stores. Though I don't buy much, by now I have most of what I want and have built a sweet cottage on 12 acres in the Alabama woods where I paint, read and garden...no lawn...lots of trees and a few chickens - free range eggs! But I love to travel and look, that's that visual thing.
Except for COPD, my health is excellent and I don't have a drawer full of Rx's, I do eat healthy/organic when I can. Due to the Rx's I do take and the limitations of COPD, along with my Scots/Irish heritage, I am now more 'curvy' than most of my life. I have put on some pounds that I struggle with and can't be as active as I used to be.
My life is slower paced now, but I think that's what's nice about retirement, I don't do much multitasking ("A" type stuff) any more and I really can "Stop and Smell the Roses"; I can be more spontaneous now...WOW! the freedom.
