Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly

About Me

Recently I heard someone say "shy is rude", so to all those who think I've been rude to them, sorry I really am just shy! lol.
My life is all about my daughter and making sure she is surrounded by love, happiness, and all things good. Trying to raise a daughter in a messed up world is nothing short of scary (and she's only in preschool)!
I'm very easy going and try not to worry about the small stuff. I love music, movies, dancing, being a mom, going on vacation, warm weather, Champagne, Guinness, tropical drinks, Hawaii, spending time with family and friends.
Dislike drama, confrontations, mean and fake people.

My Interests

Music, collecting mid-century clothes, shoes, housewares, furniture, etc., hanging out with friends, going out to shows, dancing, record hops, good drinks, cuddling with my baby girl and my husband.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone with similar interest

Although you are gone, you're always in my heart
I love you Nicole!
