Although I appear to be very outgoing and friendly, I am a bit shy and somewhat of an introvert. My religious faith, family and friends are very important to me. Loyalty, honesty and integrity are attributes I strive to live by and seek in others. My mother is my best friend, mentor and example in life. My sense of humor is corky, and I am very young at heart. Having lived in the UK for many years, I value/enjoy English traditions like afternoon tea. I am foodie, so I like to explore new restaurants and have a big sweet tooth. Since I don't have children of my own, I love spending time with my friends and their children. I love animals, and dogs and cats have been a part of my life for the past 13 years.
