I think people notice right away that I have a very optimistic, upbeat attitude towards life. Friends have told me that I have a great sense of humor, and I like to believe them! I was taught that it's important to always to have a smile on your face!
I enjoy shooting at the range and have fired everything from an M-1 rifle to a Glock. It?s an absolute blast (no pun intended)! When it comes to going out around town, I've always enjoyed fairs, rides, dancing, bowling, mini golf, operas, plays, and arcades. When relaxing at home, I like to curl up with a good movie or book. You won't catch me declining a new idea or adventure, it's in my nature!
Traveling is without a doubt my favorite way to spend my free time. Whether it's going overseas or just a day trip with friends. I lived in Germany for about five months and was able to do quite a bit of exploring. I absolutely loved it! A couple years ago, I had the opportunity to visit Israel and Palestine and fell in love with the people, the history, and the beauty of it all. Beyond traveling, I am very passionate about both my Catholic faith and my family. They make up a huge part of who I am, and I'm incredibly grateful for both!
I am a firm believer that you cannot truly know someone until you have walked in their shoes. I greatly value open communication and honesty, especially in a partner, and I would hope that they are looking for the same from me. In short, I am very happy with the way my life is turning out. Now, I am simply looking for someone to share it with!
A few fun facts:
1. I am not here for hook ups. My parents have been married for 42 years (of living with each other) can you believe that?! All kidding aside, I would love to have that too.
2. I view my glass as just the right size and halfway full (of vodka on a social night with friends)! And empty (after an intense workout at the gym). =) So is the glass twice as big as it should be or is it just right for you?
4. I've been to Europe a few times! I recently got back from an exciting trip to Portugal, Spain, and France.
5. I believe life is a roller coaster so why spend time on the merry go round?
6. I enjoy going to the gym a few times a week.
My top 6 failures:
1. I love painting but am not a Picasso!
2. I'm most likely only woman who has been wounded in the Dead Sea
3. I can get lost in a paper bag.
4. My car's name is Frankie. (There's a story that goes behind this name). =)
5. I have a weakness for bacon and any type of potato.
6. I have a weakness for a man that can smile.
I am looking for a gentleman in the truest sense of the word. He should be respectful and kind, whether it's towards me or a total stranger. I feel like that behavior shows a good character and a genuine love for humanity. I would hope that he is also funny, loving, and passionate about life. We certainly don't need to be passionate about the same things, but he should have some direction and goal that he is striving for. Above all, I would like to find someone I can laugh with!
