Date women from United States / California / Atascadero, 51 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. Pls only non-smokers who live within San Luis Obispo County contact me!! I am comfortable with being alone, but I know how being with someone you love and respect can add to the quality of everyday life. I like to spend evenings relaxing together as we talk about our day and make plans for spending time together. I have been on my own for 6 yrs since my divorce and feel ready for a committed relationship with the right person. Would like to take it slow in the begining to give ourselves time to see our reflections in the others eyes...after the initial attraction brings us together, than the fun can start with dates and talks about what we want in life....hope you will walk with me down the path to discover what brings us together....and may we find many beautiful things to ponder. I don't drink alcohol and recently stopped eating meat. However, I do enjoy seafood, sushi and amazing vegetarian creations I make at home or know where to go get them when eating out!. I love to cook and bake for those who I care about enjoying the sharing of the food I create with everyone I know. I create solar light art and mosaic functional pieces that are being sold in various stores around the county. I am hoping to put some of my art in Big Sur soon!
I love being around young children and have raised 4 boys to become wonderful young men...I look forward to being able to share future grandchildren with a life partner who loves children as much as I do.
My ideal match would be someone who enjoys a healthy lifestyle, is compassionate, can express his feelings, is financially secure and are comfortable displaying their love. My partner would enjoy time together, time apart, time with friends and with family. I love warm tropical water, hiking in the light rain of Kauai, seeing a show in SFO, spending the day at Esalen in Big Sur taking a personal growth class followed by soaking in the heated tubs....playing together always looking for ways to smile and laugh.. I enjoy a good game of chess, cribbage or backgammon or laying on the couch in front of the roaring fire watching a movie or reading a good book. The important thing would be doing things together while being there with each other through all that life has to offer. Sometimes that means just relaxing in a hammock and appreciating each others company. Lots of fun things to do together... playing in the snow in the sierras, skiing, gardening, bike riding, walks on the beach with the dogs, trips to warm tropical places or Europe ; Costa Rica & back to South America to explore and experience ancient cultures..creating magical memories together! Being bilingual in Spanish makes it fun to travel in latin american countries...muy bien vamonos a viajar pronto!
I am an intelligent, kind, caring, loving woman who knows herself well and believes that sharing my love for life can only add to life's enjoyment when I am with someone who loves and respects me for who I am and vice versa....most of all I love, the feeling of being in love....Carpe Diem is what I live and believe...what about you?

Meet someone special from California, United States. I love humor, easy going but very limited to time right now, but love the outdoors and raquet sports. My social life right now consists of school full time and work, but would like someone to share my accomplishments with eventually.
