I have started a new life with new beginnings just over 10 yrs. ago, after ending a 25 yr. plus relationship.

I'm a proud mother of 4 grown children and 7 grandchildren.  My family is very important to me, however I have choosen to distance myself my miles between my children.  I had discovered that when I am in close proxsiminity I tend to embace myself in their lives.  I have been trying to discover myself as who I am seperate from my family.  It's been hard because I know myself as a mother and a good friend to many.  It's been difficult learning who I am as I stand as just me.  I know that it is easier to take care of others before myself, I need to learn to be more fulfilled with me, myself and I, instead of needing others to fulfill me.

I have remained single for the past 10 yrs. plus, but desire to re-enter the dating world, because, have learned that I am not enough.  Life can be tough and we all need a hug from time to time.

I truly belive that we were not designed to be alone...

After 10 years of life reassemts I still feel that I am still at a new beginning.  I have a lot of great information but have difficulty with the applied application skills to make this new life happen for me.

I've come from a simple but basic valued family.

My bio-father and mother had a history of domistic abuse and my mother seperated fom my father at my age of 7yrs.

I have 2 brothers 1 with disabilities and one health one.

My mother re-entered a new relationship when I was 8 plus and gave me a 3rd brother when I was 13.  My brothers and I have a okay relationships, however we were not taught good communication skills.  My 2 brothers are very private, I am more the tell all.

Our bio-father was an alcholic and very self serving.

Our mother is an alcholic and remains very much a victem.

My brother with disabilities does not drink, 2 of the brothers are responsible drinkers, I however have a drinking problem.  I have sought treatment, but have returned too some past behaviors.  I don't drink daily, I hold a responsible job, but I tend to have about 2-3 melt downs a month.  I keep my shadow side private.

I look forward to rebuilding my life to healthy and less dependent one.

I would like to see a healthy and supportive relationship with someone with strong family values.

I am open to a new career.

Celebrate some gift of travel.

My goals are simple and realistic.  I base them from a place of healthy and happy.
