I'm generally an upbeat person--I view the glass as being half full and approach life with that attitude. Family and friends are extremely important to me. I enjoy the outdoors--especially being on or near the ocean. I have a small sailboat and spend a fair amount of my time during the summer on it. I finish sailing around mid Sept. though as I'm not a "frostbiter" by any stretch of the imagination. I like to keep fit--I workout on weights and do a cardio program. I'm also into martial arts. I can be funny without giving up my strong morals. I'm not a straight-edge--my beliefs are still evolving. Not a church goer but not an agnostic either. I'm honest, but not brutally so. I have an 8 1/2 year old son who is truly the "light of my life". I share him 1/2 time. I would like to find a partner who feels a true zest for life and a strong family attachment. Is compassionate, committed, communicative, sensual and happy with herself. If you are a single mom, well that would be a bonus!
