I have lived in Seattle for nearly a year and a half now. A native of Montana, I have lived several places in my life including many years in Ireland. Most recently, I was back in Montana but decided the winters were too long and too cold. I am a history and special ed teacher and I love my profession. I finally started back at the gym today after a long hiatus and feel better already. My ideal man would be intelligent, compassionate, not too set in his ways and have a good sense of humor. He would probably be an alpha but not a bully and he would be open to opinions other than his own. He would also have a romantic side. I am not perfect and I don't expect it in other people. I love my 3 daughters and my tiny new grandson Aidan who is still in the NIQUE. I think I am laid back and easy going. Generally, I prefer small groups to large crowds where people can talk. Oh, did I mention I like to talk? Now that I've chased most of you away, if you are interested, please send me a message.
