Date women from United States / Arizona / Surprise, 66 year old

Date someone special from Surprise, United States. Hello !
Lets see what would you like to know about me ?
I am a positive thinker, enjoy new experiences and places. And most of the old ones too :) I enjoy being both spontaneous and planning for a trip, event or just getting together with friends. I am affectionate, loyal and honest, no drama, no games. Life is too short to get stuck on the small stuff. Honesty is a must ! I believe life is all about passion, both physical and emotional. I am looking for a friend and hopefully someone special to share all the special moments of our lives.
I was born and raised in So Calif. I have spent most of my time in Calif, Seattle, Fort Lauderdale and here in AZ.
I married young - divorced in 1970. Have been essentially single for the last 10 years, focusing on work. Probably not the best decision, but it was all mine :) I recently retired and would love to share my life with someone who has the similar values, wants and needs and wants to LIVE the rest of their life.
My family and friends will always be an important part of my life - not all consuming but I am very involved.
I love to make a special romantic time out of anything we do - just being ourselves and sharing what makes both of us excited about life and on top of the world. I have many interests and look forward to experiencing many more.
I have seen a lot of the U.S. but there is much more to see and experience. I also want to travel and see more of the world. I have been to Hungry, Northern Italy and London. There is so much to see and do in this world.
If I have sparked your interest send me a wink or email and I will do the same. You will be letting me know you would like to chat. Who knows, we may become friends or much more :) My photos are current (2011).
Have a great day !

Meet a soulmate from Surprise, United States. I have recently retired from a long career in nursing and now have time to look to tomorrow as I desire a permanent, loving, mutually satisfying relationship. Hope to meet a great guy who is as sincere as I am in sharing mutual ideals and interests, who knows himself and hopes to discover a wonderful life with a gentle, loving soul!
I am the mother of four sons who are successful with great families. They all live out of town------so meeting friends and making plans with them keeps me busy. Love the Valley and hope we can make plans too. It's no trouble for me to embrace every new adventure,, trip or event. Even more exciting when these things----life----is shared!!!!!
Ideally, a healthy relationship is built on open communication,attention to each other Ii.e. listening, affection and mutual respect. Hopefully, through my personal and professional life I have been inspirational and want to continue to live by the principle of doing the right thing.I like a man who has his own interests, loves God, country and family. It indicates substance without ego and strength without boasting. Love to laugh, banter and joke around so hope you have a great sense of humor where we can both laugh at ourselves, smile at the majestic AZ. sunsets, and find a comforting, soothing look in each others eyes.
If I have provoked an interest-----I would love to hear from you. If not, I do wish you well on this journey we're taking.
