Date women from United States / Alabama / Orange Beach, 38 year old

Date someone special from Orange Beach, United States. How to describe myself. . . hmmm? I enjoy life and love people for the most part. I sometimes like to sip on a glass of wine or drink a cold beer and love to dine out. One of my favorite past times is going out with friends or on a date and partaking in some live music. Actually any kind of live music is fabulous to me. I just love the energy! I think probably the only music I donРІР‚в„ўt much care for is polka and I could probably get into that as well in the company of fun loving friends. Sometimes I may even get frisky and enjoy a nice cigar.
I would classify myself as a foodie. I like to cook. I love to grill and would entertain more often if given the time. Sometimes, I enjoy some quiet time to myself and reading a good book or watching a stupid 70РІР‚в„ўs B-Film for kicks. I love scuba diving but itРІР‚в„ўs been a while. Last time, I dove in Mexico and it was unbelievably incredible. If youРІР‚в„ўve never tried it, I would urge you to go and give it a shot. You wonРІР‚в„ўt regret it!
I stay pretty busy between my career, my children, and just recently began my studies once again, so I am adjusting to being a student. I really don't know how people find the time, but I guess I can forego a little sleep to make it happen. I pray that I have some brain cells left from my first go around as an undergrad. LOL!
I like a little kickboxing. It's so much fun to burn some tension since it's not nice to pummel people on the street. That's a joke. I pummel people on the street all the time. ThatРІР‚в„ўs another joke. Laughing is very important to me; it is good for the soul. I would say that most people tell me I have a great smile. I would describe myself as a genuine person. I am a caring person, but rude people often frustrate me. So, I try to avoid the rude people of the world or at least keep them out of my space. I like to treat others as I wish to be treated. One of my greatest strengths is that I am loyal to those I care about and I like to think that I am a good listener. I am trustworthy and often referred to as encouraging. I was married for 14 years and with the same man for 18 years, which means that I was with the same person for about half of my life. We met in college. Now I am enjoying my life as a single woman and loving the fact that I have the freedom and ambition to take my life in any direction that I choose. Life is short. . . I do know that. So, I am pursuing my goals and dreams and doing my best to build a good solid foundation for myself and for my beautiful children. I am trying to show them that we all must search for those things in life that we are passionate about, as these pursuits lead us to lifelong happiness.
I am most grateful for the people in my life. . . my family, my friends, colleagues, and people in my church. They all contribute in their own special way to improving my life and the way I live it.
IРІР‚в„ўm not looking to meet and marry a wealthy guy. (Yes, I am a proud woman, maybe even a bit stubborn at times. LOL!) I plan on attaining my own wealth so I can travel and show my children the rest of the world, meeting some interesting people along the way. To me, that is what life is about. . . enriching oneРІР‚в„ўs life by meeting interesting and good hearted people. If I should meet and find a man that excites me and we fulfill one another and enrich one another, then great! If not, I am good just to gain a few friends. Either way, IРІР‚в„ўve gained a new perspective and made some lasting connections. Life is good and even better when you have the opportunity to surround yourself with cool and interesting people! : )
