I am a "glass half full" type person who has arrived at this stage of life, single and desiring to savor the joys of partnership as I journey through the rest of my life. I had a cat who kept me company - like really great company, but sadly she has gone on to the next life. (maybe, who knows?) My life is happy and content but I know it would be enriched with a suitable partner. I believe and taught my kids that a great friendship is the best basis for a good marriage or long-term, life relationship. That's what I hope to find. At my core I am a Christian woman who loves God but I am not a zealot. My spirituality is part of who I am but I don't flaunt it. My family is VIP to me and friends as well. My passions include doing art, viewing art, cooking for my people, baking for others, doing volunteer work, travel - (though that has been put on hold now), music, movies, theater.
