I am here for Friends

About Me

Life is good! Plain and simple, I am blessed. I LOVE my family! My parents, brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews are all the best, and each are very loving & supportive in their own way. I have had an extended childhood, as my nieces and nephews will attest to, which hopefully will help me when I get to have a family. ;o) I love life and try to live to the fullest without trying to compromise, although I as often as I do fall down, I get right back up. (ty Lord)What do I do? I am fortunate to be involved in 2 businesses right here in Tampa. Two of my friends and I founded the 'Axis Group', which is a National PEO Brokerage in 2002. http://axisgroupllc.com/ I am also a partner of 'the Butcher Block', where we do fine wine and cheese tastings, prepared meals, and have one of the best gourmet butcher shops in Tampa. http://www.butcherblocktampa.com/index.html

My Interests

I love to travel and take vacations of all kinds. Sharing ideas, dreams, and goals with your spouse, friends, and/or family while experiencing new things during your trip will draw you that much closer to those people.

I'd like to meet:

My soulmate ;o)

a

Music:

I like all kinds of music!

Movies:

Disturbia! (I should've known better than doing a 1st date to scary movie)Love action movies like Bourne Identity series, Spiderman, Matrix, and grew up on Star Wars. Remember, I said that I've had an extended childhood? I like to go see animated movies like Shrek, Monsters Inc, The Incredibles and the Pixar shorts. Chick flicks or romantic comedies are Notting Hill, 50 first dates, Everafter, Pretty Woman, and No Reservations.

Television:

American Idol, House

Books:

The Bible, Experiencing God Series

Heroes:

My parents (bless 'em)- they raised 5 children plus a few strays from other families whom were our friends. They never complained, but instead made it happen with what we had; which wasn't much growing up. They were able to handle their kids get knocked unconscious on a tubing trip, to see another child become so ill that the Dr.s didn't know what to do, and to sit and wait as one went through multiple surgeries from a motorcycle accident. That is just a small part of what they endured from their kids. I can only imagine what it is like to watch your children go through what they went through, and all they could do is pray. Talk about faith! They are my heroes. /smile
