Date someone special from California, United States. Picture is now out of date since my grandson is now 3 years old. Will update soon.
I work full time so I enjoy my weekends on the golf course or skiing in the winter. I have three grown children and five young grandchildren. I like to travel to warm destinations like Mexico and Florida (home of three grandchildren). I attend church regularly.I am looking for someone with a good sense of humor that does not take themselves to seriously and enjoys the activities I do, or at least doesn't mind when I spend 5 hours on the golf course.
Meet someone special from California, United States. My closest friends would describe me as kind, caring, intelligent, with a good sense of humor. Physically, I am tall, blond and fairly typical Scandinavian for those who know the "type"....reserved, on first encounter. I am fortunate to have inherited "youthful" genes and seem much younger than my chronological age.
During my 20s and 30s I was busy climbing the career ladder. In my 40s I became a (single) mom and had a great time raising my son. Was a very busy soccer mom, boy-scout mom and counselor, school volunteer. I found parenting to be the most educational, humbling and rewarding experience. The 18 years went very quickly and son was off to college (UCSD). Within a couple of years of son moving out, Mom was diagnosed with Alzheimers. Mom moved in with me for 3 years until it became an impossible situation. She is now in a care facility and I go there every day to do what I can. It is very sad, but it is that other dimension of life which we all hope never to enter.
It is now my turn to meet someone nice and do some fun things. I am generally happy with my life, have my own business, own my home in Moraga and have many good friends. I feel very blessed! However, that "someone special" somehow has eluded me.
Guess I have never taken the time, or been proactive in trying to find this special person. I would like to meet someone who is happy, positive, self-assured (not arrogant!), is worldly &; sophisticated, likes to stay home, likes to do road trips, likes good conversation, is equally at home in a tux or jeans. A good companion with a good sense of humor and keen intellect. Someone who, undoubtedly, has "baggage", but has put it in the appropriate place, learned from it, and moved on. A man who is warm, kind, sensitive and able to give and receive affection. A man who has class (class is how you behave, not the amount of money you have) Short of finding the "perfect companion", I would be very happy to meet someone local who drops by for a glass of wine/dinner once in a while. I am not "desperately seeking".......
