About Me

READ MY BLOG & FIND OUT HOW I'M REBUILDING MY LIFE IN MY FORTIES, WITH ALL THE EXCITEMENT (AND TREPIDATION!!) OF A TEENAGER!!!

Whilst not necessarily a believer in astrology, I'm a typical Pisces in that I'm full of contradictions in my personality! In my natural leanings I'm a hedonist who enjoys having FUN FUN FUN but this is also tempered by the belief that you get nowt out of life if you put nowt in!

Most of the time I am a happy, cheerful, enthusiastic and spontaneous person who is interested in people and the world we all live in; although I do find it difficult to find many who are my completely on my wavelength!

I'm a bit of a rebel/hippy/maverick who tends to put a finger up at authority and narrow-mindedness, and can stand up for myself in most situations. I can be shy in large groups, or at first introductions, but for the most part I'm fairly outgoing and very chatty (too much for some, unfortunately!).

Sadly, I seem to have been born without the domestic gene that's supposed to be inherent in women (!) so I think I use the little projects I always have on the go as means to avoid the boring drudgery of "Goundhog Day" style housework, chores and other daily responsibilities!!!! I'm not naturally a tidy person either, so if I'm being really honest about myself I have a slob side and dodgy domestic standards!!!

I am very caring and nuturing and like to think the best of everyone unless I'm proved otherwise. I think a lot and have a great interest in the world at large. I'm pretty intelligent, with a thirst for knowledge and expanding my life experience.

Currently I am at a huge crossroads in my life. My two daughters are almost grown up (21 & 19) and on the cusp of self sufficiency and independence (at least that's what I keep telling them!) I don't have a job (that's a whole other story!) but until a year ago (March O6) I was sales & marketing manager for a graphic design agency. And I've recently come out of a long term relationship with a guy I still live with!! Not an easy situation, but our house is on the market and when it sells that'll be my cue to choose in what direction I head next!

A very different, new, and exciting one I hope!!!!

P.S. Since posting this profile, a lot has changed (read my blog) and I'm now in re-negotiations with my ex. So things are looking up already!!!P.P.S (July) Negotiations all off; so I'm back to being a single woman. Ho hum!P.P.P.S. (October) My new beginning is about to start: Brighton here I come!! (Am I single? Or spoken for? Not quite sure!)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone! - as long as they are honest, understanding, forward-thinking and open minded; with a positive attitude to life
