About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Dream castle

I am a single mom working her way through college to try and make a better life for myself and my child. A displaced Alaskan having moved to Missouri in December '98 to be with my ailing parents. I was born and raised in Arizona, but when my folks decided to move to Alaska I was game. I'd been out of high school all of a year and didn't see myself having any pressing plans to hold me in Arizona at the time. I spent 23 years living in the most beautiful place God ever created and even though I've been away for 8 years, I'd move back in a heartbeat.That move to Alaska was the best thing to ever happen to me. Alaska helped mold me into the strong and independent woman I am. Alaska has an abundance of challenges in nature and in the working world. If you're not smart in nature you end up dinner for a bear or swept away by an avalanche. Living around the beauty that is Alaska, I developed the strong love I have for the outdoors.I discovered in the working world one needs to be the best they can at what they do to keep oneself in the top ten list of employees. I worked several government contract positions that took me all over the state for either the Air Force or the Navy. In those travels I met a bunch of wonderful folks in the military, but sadly with rotations in and out, I've lost track of most of them. I hope all are doing well and if by chance any end wandering onto this little spot of mine they'll send me a messge.I work for the University of Missouri and enjoy my job. It's not exactly what I want, but it's a shoe in the door. I'm attending evening classes working toward a dual BS in Computer Information Systems and Business Administration. I'm about a third of the way there (LORD is it ever going to end)??? I can't wait until I finally graduate!! I'm hoping and praying I finish my degree while my father is still living. I want him to share in that accomplishment and know he, along with my mother, God rest her soul, and my daughter are the inspiring factors in continuing my education.I have a seven year old daughter who decided to show up in my life when I was 45. I've about decided God has a huge sense of humor and quite possibly did some talking with my mother along the way. I always wanted kids, matter of fact, I wanted 4 - 6 to be exact. I got my wish, but sadly the other three of my children are with God. I lost all of my other children either early on or later in pregnancy. I've heard so many, many times over the years that God only gives us that which we can handle and if it doesn't kill us, it makes us stronger. I firmly believe there is a reason for everything in life and nothing happens in this life by accident.I am owned by Ruby the 20 lb cat. Ruby has been a huge joy for me for the past 13 years with her faerie chasing, her kitty craziness and her abundance of love. She shares me, unwillingly, with our short haired Golden Retriever Lyra. Lyra was a research animal at the University of Missouri in their Muscular Dystropy testing. She is a carrier, but doesn't have the disease. She was removed from the control group because she lost all of her pups. Lyra spent the first 15 months of her life in a building never knowing what the outdoors was like and only knew a kennel, concrete pad and those techs who tested her.We've had Lyra for a year and a half and at 3 years old she's not quite as shy as she was when we first got her, but she's still got a long way to go. She has some behavior issues still, but we're slowly working those out.

Kink Superstar! You're more of a wild child! Not only are you open to anything others have done sexually, but you are likely to either have also done it or willing to give it a shot. You love pushing your sexual limits and will try just about anything. You are likely to scare the meek folks with your prowess and experience, and would do better with a wilder partner. You are the top of the sexual food chain! Not for Amateurs!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


More eCommentsI'd love to meet people with similar interests and preferences, if you have kids that's a double bonus. Meet new friends. Learn a bit here an there and share some along the way. I'd like to find old friends from years gone by and rekindle those friendships.In my heart I belong to someone more special than words could ever express. He was my partner for three years, but a bit of foolish pride and misunderstanding on both our parts made him leave. When someone touches your soul, held in their hands and kissed it as gently and lovingly as he did, I cannot and will not give up. I want to share my life with the one who walks in my soul and shares the dreams of a house on a snowy mountain side. Watching the snow fall from the deck of that house all wrapped up in blankets drinking hot cocoa with Buttershots.The one who does all those things listed above, but most importantly loves me and my daughter enough that he has no interest in anyone else. I want and hope to find my forever man. You know the guy, he's the one next door or across the country who really enjoys the little things in life like a walk in the rain. He's gentle with word and deed, isn't threatened by an strong and independent woman or a woman with a young child. He doesn't think twice about sending a single rose to his lady for no reason at all other than to let her know he's thinking about her. The man my heart & soul wants to find isn't afraid of commitment to one woman and knows the difference in infidelity and a committed relationship.I'll wait my dearest, I'll wait forever if I have to.....
