My close friends would probably describe me as loyal and dependable, willing to go the extra mile to help someone in need (ok, now I sound like my dog). I'm a fairly quiet person, but with a quick sense of humor. They say its the quiet ones that you have to watch out for... so true!
The most important person in my world is my 11 year old daughter and I try every day to be the kind of person I hope she will be someday - kind, trustworthy, confident, easy to laugh, resilient. I like going out to eat in new places and just taking drives to see where I end up. I like the outdoors and playing sports (I'm a little competitive!), but I also love to relax inside and watch a movie or a TV show or read a book, especially when its 1000 degrees outside (I love me some A/C then!).
Umm, what else? Some random likes... experimenting in the kitchen, riding in the first car (or last car) of a roller coaster, the smell of freshly cut grass, seeing a pod of dolphins pop up while at the beach, my dog's face when I come home, watching my daughter score a goal, growing actual edible food in a garden...
I don't have many expectations for my match- a quick smile and great sense of humor, the ability to relax on the couch AND the desire to go out and see the world, patience, kindness and generousity towards others...
