God 1, kids 2, others 3, me 4. So, I'm told I'm funny. I love to make people laugh. The language of laughter is universal and beautiful. If you are a complainer, I won't listen...well not for too long. I try to live in gratitude and servitude...daily. I live life with a sense of urgency because it is short and finite. My career does not supercede my relationships with loved ones and friends. My daughter is 12 and she Is my hero and my weak spot. My son, 9, is shy while he is also an old soul. He is my shadow...and I love it! I am sentimental and have a soft heart for a man but I'm not a pushover and will flex when necessary. I'm real and comfortable in my own skin. Bedside manners and common courtesies are a must. I don't mince words nor do I waste words. I have 2 ears and 1 mouth so I try to listen twice as much as I speak. I've never met a stranger. I like having my ego stroked occassionally. It pushes me and makes me feel needed and wanted. Church, golf, fishing, exploring random places, yardwork, cooking, volunteering, basketball, walks, workouts, shows, plays, skydiving, painting, ...I'll do it all if you will. I want a best friend that gets me and will let me be a part of her life. I want something rich with a foundation built on trust, respect, and honesty. My beard is negotiable. Kinda itchy anyway.
