I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships and Friends

About Me



I am a 61 year old "lady," (my friends say that I don't look it, or act it) that lives in beautiful Wis"cow"nsin! I love the changes of the seasons. Fall is my favorite, then winter. Yes, I like snow, what can I say.
I have two terriffic sons. Chris is 36, and is married to Christiane (my lovely daughter-in-law), and they have my one and only grandson, Cayden, who is the little light in my life! Chris is a CAD programer, graduated with honors from ITT. Christiane, graduated in the spring of 07' with a degree in corporate law. (Wow, a lawyer in the family, now all I need, is a corporation, LOL) My other son, Eric 33, was born deaf. He lives with me and works nights at Wal-Mart as an overnight stocker. Thanks to Eric, I had to learn sign-language, and I love it. I love my family, with all my heart, and they are the most important thing to me. I could not be more proud of them!
I was recently divorced for the second time. Both my ex's cheated on me. I just wish I could find an honest, caring man, that would want me and only me. Maybe some day???
I quit smoking, cold turkey, on July 1, 1986, and it was one of the best things I ever did for me. I am so pround of that! Just proves that you can do anything you really want, just set your mind to it, and Git R' Done!
That's it for now, and I will try to add more as soon as I think of it, LOL! My signature: "There is nothing that will happen to me today, that God, and I together, can't handle."

My Interests

..
Myspace Photo CubeMy interests are many. Here are a few. I love to watch professional football, the Pack of course! I am an avid bowler, and belong to the Minnesota branch of the ABT (Amateur Bowlers Tour), and in the Fall, I belong to two leagues. I like to bike, especially on the Red Cedar trail, near my home. My favorite passtime is taking care of my grandbaby, Cayden, who is 3, and a joy to be with. Keeps Grandma young. Of course, I love to shop, as most women do. I have been known to take 12 hour shopping trips, lol! There are many other things that I like to do, but will write them in here later.

Who Is Favre
He's the greatest quarterback: In the NFL today. He makes the game worth watching; Just to see him play.
He plays because he loves to;He simply loves the game.It's not for all the records:Or because he's earned the fame.The whole team stands behind him;They give him all they can.Just because they respect him;As a player and a man.The other teams respect him;And announcers all agree.He electrifies the game for all;He's a miracle to see.Everyone is mesmerized;As they watch him throw the ball.He connects with his receivers;And the crowd watches him in awe.Who is this star performer?That stands out from all the rest?It's number four for the Packers;Known by his fans as Brett.© Betty Hawkins 2003(All Rights Reserved)..

I'd like to meet:

Any one with my same interests, or anyone that would like to know me better. I wouldn't mind meeting a nice guy, that likes me for ME! And likes me the way I am, I am too old to change. LOL! And, above all else, be honest and truthful. I am, and expect the same from those I talk to. Just be YOU!

Music:

I like most any music, but I really like the "oldies" from the 50's and 60's. That is my era, and it is what I grew up on. Love Taylor Hicks, too! I also like some country and western. (Johnny Cash, The Statler Brothers, and The Mavericks, to name a few.)My favorite song is Unchained Melody. (For slow songs)

Movies:

I like romantic movies, and science fiction, and comedy. Do not care for blood and guts movies. Would much rather sit through a nice "cuddeling" kind of movie, with someone I care for. (Been a long time since I have seen a movie with anyone.)

Television:

I like all the CSI's, the sci-fi channel, some of the reality channels, House, Ghost Whisper, Bones, Prison Break, and COPS. I do not do soaps. Lifetime is one of my favorites, too. I call it the man-bashing channel. LOL!

Books:

I don't read much. Too busy with other things. I do like Edgar Allen Poe's works.

Heroes:

My first hero was my Mother. Amazing woman to me, and always will be. I only hope my sons will always feel that way about me. (I think they do right now.) I miss you Mom!
FIGHT BREAST CANCERAlso, the Viet Nam vets. I think they all got a bad deal, when they returned, and the "wall" makes me cry, everytime I see it. I know one of the names on it, and he was only 19 when he gave his young life for you and I. (Rest in Peace, Ted Scott Ferguson)
