In Her Own Words
About Her
I believe in chemistry and so I don't really think much of this matching stuff... just because we happen to listen to the same kind of music or enjoy reading means diddle squat. I have been on and off this site many times and am going to try a different approach.... It would really just be so nice to meet a real guy in the age group I am looking in that really is what he claims to be.
There is no such thing as 'no baggage', just like there is no such thing as 'time management'.
So, why should you get to know me? Because I am unique and special and jolly awesome.... well, that's what other people say anyway (blush) I just haven't found that 'click' for a long time. I used to say that I don't sweat the small stuff ~ but in fact I do... because without the small stuff you don't get to relish the big stuff.
I am at an age where I prefer (and demand) to surround myself with people who bring out the best in me ~ I don't have to do things and be with people that I don't like.
I am a very capable, positive, vivacious and most of all...happy person. I have three awesome daughters (28 25 and 23)
I am happily self-employed ~ I'm a hard-core soft-skills facilitator, Resilience Coach, Professional Motivational speaker and copywriter...which basically means that I work for myself ~ I get paid to think, create, write and talk and a lot!
I have a wicked sense of humour, play a mean game of Scrabble, love to read, addicted to socialising, enjoy cooking, house proud and (can be) spontaneous.
I do like the outdoors and animals and sport and travel and blah, blah, blah... but a bullet that is still in me from an armed robbery (that in fact got me twice) does make me think twice about where and what I do.
I look forward to finding my "click".
