First off, be prepared...I am wordy.ha!
I love the Lord. I'm just a plain old country girl from East Texas. I'm a grandma of 10 and mama of 5. Friends say I'm patient, and family say I'm too sweet for my own good (but I was one of those "mean" mama's!ha)..my bosses say I'm loyal and dependable...
Church, family, country dancing (at senior dances-no clubs), fishing, gardening, and traveling are my joys. I like to lie in my spa at night and look at the stars and the planes...wondering where they were going and wishing to be traveling again...I like flying but most experience has been commercial airlines. I work hard for what I have; don't have a lot, but don't need a lot either. "God is Good!" He allows me to help others. I guess you could say I'm a giver. I love my church and my job....though I don't get paid enough...does anybody? I work 3 jobs, so I guess you could say I'm a hard worker, too. I'm different, because I love to build things and repair things; one Christmas I asked for power tools! ha...I even repaired my own cars for years..(until they got so complicated)and my back (work injury) and/or my children started telling me to let someone else do it...not enough of me to go around sometimes!
I'm a country girl at heart, love to garden and work outside, camp and fish, and I love to dance!
I am told I'm melancholic personality with a touch of choleric (fit a "little" bit of sanguin in there, too). I'm dependable and yet fun; firm and yet fair; very,very loving person.Have been told I love people too deeply, and therefore hurt too much when I lose them. I come from a long line of "huggers". Love is the key. It will lift anyone from despair and hold anyone up who is sinking. But, unfortunately, some people can't trust and love doesn't matter to them. I'm tough; bounce back again and again. BUT I get tired of bouncing!
I am formerly a pastor's wife and loved every minute of it. As a divorced, hard working, single lady with a large family, I've not had time for all I want to do for Him, and so I've slacked on some things. BUT.... I love the Lord. He is my: comforter, rock, shield, might, forgiver, redeemer, provider and savior. Galatians 5:22,23 says" But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." I strive for such fruits, but am human and need a "help-mate" to enhance and balance my life spiritually as well as physically.......
My Ideal Person:
I'd like to find a man who loves the Lord, cherishes family, knows what "hard knocks" are and how to overcome them with a smile, who knows how to trust and share openly, and who loves life with all its joys and sorrows. If he has kids, he should remember others do, too, and they are all just as precious.
