I am a very positive person who enjoys socializing. I am preparing for retirement, sometime next year, with hopes to visit friends all over the country. My community organizations (Spfld. Girl Friends, Links, AKA Sorority, and more recently church involvement beyond Sunday attendance) keep me busy with many meetings locally and occasionally throughout the country. I am just as happy sitting at home cooking or listening to music or reading as I am with getting away for a weekend visit (i.e. visiting my relatives in NJ) or attending dinner dances. I thoroughly enjoy my granddaughter who lives nearby as do my grown sons. I love clothes, exercise at the YMCA or wherever, and eating (at home or dining out). I am a very secure person and work hard to maintain my peaceful, uncomplicated, lively lifestyle. I have always gained much from church attendance and I am moving closer to tithing. I am blessed to have many guardian angels, men and women, all of whom are my friends, but I am looking for that special man for companionship. I would be interested in meeting a secure man who loves himself and takes care of himself, one who wouldn't mind being spoiled by me and would offer the same attention to me. I love to laugh, and am quite sensible
