I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm 30 years old, a solo mom with two sons, Joshua (8) and Jacob (4). We have a black lab, George, 2 German Shepherds, Blue and Sara, a new Great Pyrenees puppy as yet unnamed, a guinea pig named "pig," and a very very very old cat named Spinner.
So welcome to my world, I’ll hit the highlights, and if they don’t scare you, feel free to ask me anything else you’d like to know!
I'm mostly laid back, a major flirt, and a real wise ass. I have random moods that even I don’t always comprehend. I firmly believe that life should be fun. I love to laugh and play and goof off every bit as much as my boys do, if not more. I rarely think before I speak, forget to call when I said I would, and have a hard time keeping dates, no matter how sincere I was when I made them. *grin* I throw myself passionately into things that interest me, and sometimes I try a little too hard. Very little embarrasses me, and I'll talk to anyone about anything. I like going out, though mainly it's just to the park, the pool, or for a hike. I like staying home kicked back on the couch with a book too.
Actually, there's very little I don't like. (Except dishes, I really hate doing dishes) I'm not a very conventional person. My dad's an ex cop and ex air force, I have a couple older brothers, and I work with like 30 guys, so I can be a little *bad* sometimes! I like to roughhouse, tell dirty jokes and bullshit a lot. I was raised by men, what can I say? I’m definitely a little warped *grins*

Seriously, hmmmm, I'm working on a detailed list which I will publish at some future date, but I'll put the top five on here!

1) Someone who likes kids and animals (duh)
2) Someone with an infinite supply of patience
3) Someone with as warped a sense of humor as I
4) Someone who is happy with themselves
5) Someone who can be kind
