I am an honest young at heart lady, afectionette, I take pride in my home and garden. I was widowed 10 years ago and find i get lonely. I am not a gad- about and dont spend a lot of money on clothes and make up. I go to the elim church on sunday mornings. but i dont preach religion to other people .I love walks in the bush or on the beach. I try and go for a walk each day. Just around the city to help keep fit. During my happy marriage we fostered over 100 children for the goverment. All my oun children are out living their oun lives now. As retired i do not foster children any more. We spent 40 years fostering and feel i deserve time for myself and soul mate if i i am lucky enough to find one.I do have a small 16 year old dog that i have had from a small puppy. I know i have to face loosing her before to long. At the moment she is fine health wise. She sleeps in her oun bed. I would welcome my soul mates children into our home and they would be treated the same as my oun. Even if they just want to pop in for a drink or need to unload and have a good cry.
