Date women from Canada / British Columbia / Coldstream, 35 year old

Date someone special from Coldstream, Canada. Updated May29 2012.
Well I signed up for this thing a few weeks ago, not knowing what to expect. Here's what I've found. I've found out that there are a lot of great profiles and people out there, but people are hesitant to say "hi". I'm not usually the type to jump in and open a conversation, but what have I got to lose?
I've met a couple people so far, but haven't found the right match. I've been told i look better in person, ha ha, not sure if that's a compliment, but I'll take it. I love an intelligent conversation or a good laugh. A casual meeting to see if there's a connection, then who knows, let's see where life takes us.
I'm looking for someone that I can connect with. I am a single mom of 2. I work full time and love what I do. I'm very driven and am passionate about many things in my life. My family, my work, having fun, spending time with good friends, and trying new things. What I'm missing is that special someone to try new things with.
I'm at a place in my life where I'm going through lots of change. Trying new things, sparking new interests, and really enjoying life and living. I've recently joined a gym, and have a renewed energy. I'm loving my personal transformation as well as the physical transformation. I find myself more open to spontaneity and adventure and am looking for someone to be adventurous with.
I've learned a lot about myself from my previous relationship and my two beautiful children. I've learned to self reflect and although it's hard, I believe I'm a better person for being willing to change and improve on my flaws. Something I think we all have to do throughout our lives. :o)
Well I've rambled on long enough, if you're still with me here's some quick facts.
A few things that make me... me
I'm kind to people.
I smile at strangers passing on the street
I hold doors open. Those little things make society a better place.
I smile when I see simple acts of kindness, but sometimes forget to put it in words.
I sometimes think I'm funny when I'm not, but I can also laugh at myself.
I will always try something even if it scares the crap out of me.
I'm clumsy and well hey... it's free entertainment.
I sometimes come across as quiet, but I'm an innovator, creator, and enthusiastic person.
I may have self confidence issues (and what girl doesn't), but I know I'm beautiful to the right person. Maybe to you?
I want someone to laugh with, to do things with. From yard work, to grabbing a coffee or having a weekend getaway.
I want someone who will ask how my day was, and when I'm excited about something, engage in a conversation, or when I'm frustrated with a difficult situation, be supportive!
I'm a very loving person who values the simple things. A simple text, phone call, snuggle on the couch. I think I'm very down to earth, and my friends would say I'm generally quite a balanced and caring person.
I'm very social, but I'm the girl that plans the parties, and mingles all night. I'm not loud or the center of attention which does me just fine.
I love camping (yes in a tent), fishing, tropical getaways, snorkeling and occasionally getting a little pampering.
I'm a little bit competitive, but only to motivate myself.
My expectations are pretty simple. I want a man that can respect me, support me(emotionally not financially), and have a little fun with me, and I'll do the same in return.
These profiles hardly do us all any justice, but if I sound a little bit interesting, send me an email and let's see what happens.

Meet a soulmate from Coldstream, Canada. I am very grateful for everything I have in my life, a great family, great friends and now a career that I can be happy with.
My closest friends would describe me as someone that is up for almost anything, I am willing to try anything at least once. I am also very loyal and would bend over backwards to help someone in need.
I love animals of almost any sort, I love dogs and enjoy spending time with them.
I am hoping to attract someone who is independent and supportive and enjoys spending time going to concerts, fishing and camping.
