Meet a woman from California, United States. I'm a single women. I have two grown wonderful children (Daughter 27 Son 25) and I have two beautiful grandchildren. I'm a hard worker (some say a workaholic) in Human Resources for over 11 years. My likes: listening to either Country or Classic Rock driving in my car or listening to it in my living room while cleaning house. I am a home body for the most part but, I do like getting out on a nice day and exploring, visiting family and or friends. I like fishing or just sitting by a lake and listening to the waves or the occassional fish jump splash. I like venturing out in the area or packing a picnic and finding a serene place to chill reflect. I like sitting on my back porch and letting the warm sun melt any cares away or watching the sunset. I like a nice glass of Sangria (ok maybe two) on a nice Sat. evening or visiting with friends. I like driving to the mountains and riding the ski lift to the top on the off season and taking in all the sites and people watch. I am just as happy getting a couple of DVD's cuddling up to my special someone and staying in and maybe even a nice cat nap on a lazy Sunday afternoon. I love to visit my kids as often as possible and my grandbabies. My son talks about moving to Oregon and my daughter Colorado so until that happens I get as much time in as possible.
I was married and in love but divorced in 1994 after 13 years. I am seeking a friend, perhaps after some time of knowing someone special, perhaps a life partner. Marriage is not my first choice and I would rather not. I know that statement may be the deciding factor for most men but I wan't to be honest. I don't believe marriage is in the cards for me and I don't want to play games or play with a man's heart. Honesty is very Important. To consider living together after a time is an open option. I am an independant women, a bit head strong and I can be assertive especially when it comes to standing up for my love ones or friends. Now don't read into the previous statement that I must be a B_ _ _ h ! I truly am not, I am a warm caring honest and loving person. A one man kind of women who is looking for a one women kind of man. I like to laugh and love. I am passionate, love to kiss, hold hands and a real good snuggler. Not to boast but, I don't have credit baggage. buying my home (God willing), paid off my car and I'm in fairly good health. I am working on getting back in shape. I do not do the bar/club scene and I am not persay a social butterfly so, meeting people is not the easiest for me. I like meeting new people I just don't take the first step. Kind of shy. This is what brought me here. I hope to get to know people through chatting, to meet individuals and gain social friend(s). I hope to meet a nice, caring friend or love interest with strong values, who knows the meaning of family, likes to talk, show affection and walks beside me, not infront or behind. I am a lover not a fighter. Well I guess that's it for now. I will probably edit my profile as necessary. This is all so new to me. So uncertain about this but family and friends tell me I should give it a try. I'm not having any luck waiting for a chance meeting in a grocery store, or the company picnic, or a holiday get together. I'm sure there is someone out there who can relate. If it is not me you are looking for I truly wish you all the best in your search! I wish you companionship, closeness, a warm loving caring person who will be your reason for smiling every day, Good luck to us all.
