After my 55 years on this planet (at least in this go around) I have learned to love myself and accept others for the people they are. I am passionate about life- keeping balance, having friends and family I love, learning new things, the challenges of travel and being in the out of doors whether at the beach or in the mountains. I am social but also like to spend time by myself. I love to laugh and love being with people who can make me laugh.

I love to read, dance in my kitchen, play scrabble, travel to interesting places, and renovate homes. After six renovations I know what I like and know how to do much of the work. I love architecture, the arts, world music and spending time with people who are interesting- no matter their age or background.

I have hobbies and can spend time by myself without feeling lonely. I do some physical exercise every day; yoga, dance, weight training, walking or biking. I am a partially reformed Southerner (lived in Jawja for 17 years) so I love hush puppies, buttermilk biscuits, sweet tea, and fried okra. I have lived in 13 states and traveled to 13 countries and found something to love in each and every one. I have friends all over the world many of whom I hope to visit someday.

Things I enjoy: Boggle, making homemade jelly, packing a suitcase, windchimes, making jewelry, baking, cooking over a ca..., listening to music, finding shells, Scrabble, geography, spelling, taking care of kids, first aid, using power tools (I feel sexy when I use a jigsaw, or circular saw ;-} being a good friend.

Things I am not good at; juggling, selecting ripe watermelons juggling ripe watermelons, typing, coloring in the lines, sitting on the couch vegging out, being quiet, standing by when I see someone getting hurt.

What I’m doing with my life
I have been work at managing disasters (kind of an oxymoron, I know) and am now back at the University. I also volunteer in the community and enjoy meeting new people. I love spending time with

This is probably the hardest part- I am a good friend, passionate about life, and very curious. I have had numerous professional and volunteer recognitions but the best part of life is the daily recognition that I can make a difference- usually in really small ways- smiling at someone who is grouchy, helping someone who needs a hand, being open to listening to others.

For me accomplishments are more internal though I like every other person enjoy doing a job well just for my own satisfaction or maybe getting a recognition for a job well done.

I want to find a partner who is interested in and curious about the world. Someone who is strong enough to share their feelings, who is confident and capable and is looking for a true partner. You like intelligent, caring, women. You enjoy the company of most people, smile at kids, have a great sense of humor, and love to travel. And if you love to sing to yourself in the car or dance in the kitchen......Bonus points!
