I might be a widow, yet life goes on :-)

I Would Describe Myself As

Enthusiastic, energetic, generous, loving, affectionate touchy/feely person, healthy, adventure-seeking woman hoping to find a similar type man to discover this awesome life and phase we find ourselves in :-)...I love gardening so obviously and most definitely eating... LOL... swimming, golf, boating, hiking, biking, traveling, HUMOR, cooking/uncooking (rawfood) or more realistically working on a more rounded healthy cleansing lifestyle for sure yet not dogmatic as I have to lose a few pounds...haaa...and would love a partner to enjoy working on that together...spiritual not religious...pretty much am a solid "try-anything-once" kind of adventurous type...would like to horseback ride more...have gr8 relationship w my stepkids who are my kids/grandkids...luv to read, research, seminars...love to be of service and consider myself an activist and proud of it...luv to hang at my home and relax as well as go go go...balance is important and I crave it more and more as the years fly by (so I can veg out like the best of em too - totally need downtime)...kids live on their own so enjoy my alone time and thrive on it actually...I'm not a needy person, nor want to feel smothered...altho I believe life is to be shared with someone you like, enjoy or love
...love to be yourself w thru all the thrilling (good, bad, ugly) and mysterious happenings in this thing called life :-/) !

Honesty, trustworthiness and loyalty are hallmarks I exude and expect as well from anyone that will be in my life...we all have issues or baggage of some sort, yet a mindset of acceptance and compromise from open communication can eleviate most anything and ultimately a sense of humor fixes all!

I was blessed to be married for almost 25 years b4 becoming a widow...know what a phenomenal relationship is...and while I don't need a man, bc I'm self-reliant and financially stable, I do find I miss that indescribable bond between 2 people that want to be around one another ...so seek and want to cultivate that unforgettable connection.
