About Me


Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Retro flowers


Hi there! My name is Linda, and I am, always have been, and absolutely always will be, a peace-love-happiness, wildflower-lovin' kind of girl. I was born and raised in North Jersey and moved to the east coast of South Florida 29 years ago to get away from the long, cold winters. It was great for awhile, but now I need to get away from these long, stressful hurricane seasons! Who knows, maybe one day I may actually move from here like I've been saying for years. There are just too many places to choose from, so here I stay.Life is too short, so I try not to sweat the small stuff. I'm serious when I need to be but I also have a great sense of humor! I love to laugh, smile and joke around a lot. Hey, I grew up in the 60's! I may be 55+ but I don't know how to act like it. You know what they say - you're as young as you feel!
My 22 year-old son Anthony lives with me, along with our lab/shepherd, Tux, and four cats, Diamond, Gabby, Tommy & Thomas (I have to update my photos soon). We have a happy household! My son is absolutely THE best son that a mother could ever hope for. He helps me out a lot, and makes sure that the animals are well taken care of. He's also a great guitar player, bass player, acoustic guitar player, etc. He and Brian, one of his longtime MySpace friends, have started an online band (Songs for the Afterlife) and they're really quite good! My profile song is one of their's. And since my son is so into music, he's introduced me to a lot of bands that I would have never thought to listen to. Music always soothes the soul!

My Interests

Long drives with no destination in mind; thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales, Home Depot; TV; supper at a little mom 'n pop place; going to/watching MLB (go Yankees!); cooking; day cruises; fishing; gardening; home improvement projects; painting; video games; concerts; walks in the park; museums; festivals/fairs; zoos; traveling; reading; movies; quiet nights at home; meeting with friends; Scrabble; would love to sky dive (at least once), and more.

I'd like to meet:


I absolutely LOVE meeting new people! And when my son told me that I could do just that on MySpace, I signed up right away. And so far, I have met so many really great people, and now have many new friends! Men and women who live here in the USA, and all over the world. It's so interesting to get to know each other and learn about our different countries, cultures and interests. Now don't be a stranger! Add me, message me! I look forward to hearing from YOU - whoever you are, wherever you are!

(Oh, and if there are some NICE gentlemen out there who are looking to meet a nice lady for a long-term relationship, feel free to message me too. We can start to chat, get to know each other. Never know what can happen, right?)
