Happy in Recovery Currently I am an active menber of AA in St. Petersburg, Fl.
I have a great love for the outdoors. I love animals and frequently drove my father crazy by bringing home everything imaginable to keep as "pets". I am college educated and finally settled down to a career in the Animal Healthcare field. I love it.

Things I enjoy include long walks, spontaneous road trips, trailblazing, relaxing with a good book, movies of all types but especially comedies, mysteries and sci-fi. I also enjoy most music with the exception of rap. In fact, I grew up a lover of hard-rock and saw such groups as Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Scorpions, Blue Oyster Cult, journey, 38 Special, UFO, and Rainbow to name a few.

What do I want? I have matured enought to realize that those things mean little when considering true cotentment and peace in my life. True fulfillment comes with being happy with myself and how I conduct myself with others. I desire a happy relationship. Let me explain. Any relationship begins with two people communicating and progresses when there are things in common, leading toward friendship or something more. I would really like a meaningful relationship that involves being with someone I can laugh with, cry with and enjoy life with. While I am a die-hard romantic, the absolutely perfect mate is a myth. However, I believe a loving relationship which includes mutual trust, honesty and the sharing of thoughts, feelings and emotions is definitely possible. I also believe in the basic goodness of people or I wouldn't be on this site

Most people, including myself, are looking for someone to talk to, to listen to them, to understand them, to enjoy the good times and overcome the bad times with, and to ultimately love them. And to finally love that person back.

So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Thanks for listening. If any of this seems to be to your liking please email me. I will welcome it.
