I Would Describe Myself As

I just celebrated my 64th birthday on the luckiest day of the year (7/7) and I had a great time. I certainly don't feel 64. I feel no older than thirty. Sometimes my body tells me I'm a little older than that though.

I am a work in progress!!! Meaning For the first time in my life I am beginning to accept change, and beginning to love me for being me. For this BBW that has been quite a hard task to accomplish. I've lost about 120 pounds and by no means am I at the weight I should be. Lets just say I found real curves I didn't know I had. I am loving the shopping scene. By no far stretch of the imagination am I a high maintenance kind of girl. I like nice things, like to be pampered but I have no problem pampering myself. I have gotten on an exercise regime and I really do like it. I have been exercising no less than 3-5 times a week at the local aquatic center. I have had this membership for about a year now and it has helped with making me a more confident person.

I love people and they usually respond favorably in return. I am a retired professional and have been for about 3 years. I love to laugh and have people around me happy too.

I am looking for a friend first. Just someone who enjoys writing, reading and sending emails. I enjoy holding hands, romantance, movies, an occasional cocktail, traveling in and out of the state and country, and just having fun. I am not looking to jump right into a committed relationship. Lets be friends first. If there is someone out there that can fit my puzzle of life I welcome you.

An Ideal First Date Would Be

Since this is the first date I would choose a public place such as a local restaurant in a large mall for lunch. We would have pleasant conversation (sitting across from each other in a cozy both)on topics which would let us know more about the type of people we are and the fun things we each enjoy. Then a nice walk after lunch as we hold hands talk some more or just enjoy being together. Maybe we could have a camera and record silly memories of the things we did as we got to know each other.
