I'm looking for someone who truly believes we shouldn't waste time continuing to suffer the hurt of old wounds, when there's someone out there willing to make you happy...

I'm a 50-yr-'young' blonde/gray haired woman who loves this stage of life (even if it ain't fer sissies!). I'm 'real' meaning that I've lived this number of years and have learned much about people and life in general (yet I'm still amazed, ha). I've tried to learn not to stress about the little things.

My two children are grown. My son joined the military and is awaiting his active duty in September, while my daughter is in Texas attending college near my parents. I wish I had become LDS while my children were young, but I got here as soon as I figured it out! :) I love being an LDS member, even though I found it late in life. As a new convert, I was endowed just a few months ago.

I'm a deep thinker. I love conversation. I love to take day trips/out of town trips. I love to read the scriptures. I have been taking a D&C class and feel like I got so much out of it! I love to participate in church/life. I like movies, I do books on mp3/CD or read, things with good historical fiction, sci-fi -- Ray Bradbury, etc.-- any good boook with a point to it.

I love my place in life right now. But what I don't have, is a partner to share the rest of my life with. I'm ready now for that to be a priority in my life.

I like that I'm healthy, though I'm not 25 anymore (darn it!)... but I can keep up on most 2-4 mile walks!

I love a good mix of being outdoors (in good weather, including snow) and indoors.

Time just got away and the kids are grown now. I don't know what the future holds, but I believe God will bring me together with a mate -- should that be in my future. For now, I enjoy spending time with my church family, friends and traveling to see my parents in Texas.
