About Me

After graduation I moved back to Asheville, NC (where I took PFAL) with the assignment of starting a Twig which I did. I married one of my spiritual partners and we enjoyed 13 years of marriage and had a daughter in 1992. At this writing, she is 15 and a freshman in high school. She spent the first 12 years of her life in NC, I spent about 30 years there. Now both of us live in ROchester, NY where the rest of my family lives. My life consists of many pursuits the most important being to make a good life in my new location. Even for an extrovert like me it is challenging to make new friends. I joined a gym and take aerobics and cycling classes there. Over a year ago I joined a singles "meet-up" group. The activities coordinators are excellent and I enjoy the get-togethers.

My Interests

Bird-watching, Festivals, taking day trips to Niagara Falls, Toronto, Finger Lakes region. I love home decorating, dabble in watercolors, drinking tea with friends, playing bridge, and messing around on my computer. I'm always interested in self-improvement.

Employment or Career

No matter what I've done, it has always revolved around sales. I've sold commercial foodservice equipment, been a waitress, sold AAA memberships, cleaned houses,and cleaned windows. My last career move-a real stunner-I was hired by Prudential and trained/licensed as a financial planner. Still lots of sales involved, but what I always loved about it was the closeness I had to my clients, many of whom became friends. Now I'm semi-retired and focusing on giving my daughter the best possible rearing I can. When she graduates from high school, I hope she attends college and I hope that I will have a loving relationship with a man after God's own heart and mine, too.

Music I Like

The blues...Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Allman Bros. John Mayer, Bonnie Raitt. I also actually enjoy listening to the pop tunes my daughter likes...not all of them but most.

Books I Like

Cookbooks, O Magazine, self improvement stuff, gardening.

Television I like

Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Dancing with the Stars, The Office, My Name is Earl, 30Rock, Survivor, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report

Movies I like

Walk the Line, The Thomas Crown Affair (steamy!!), LA Confidential, Fargo

Sports Teams I like

Buffalo Bills, Husband likes the Yankees

I noticed you said you lived in Asheville. I was a WOW coordinator on my interem year. You probably know Betty Clay, Kay Dowd and a lot of others there as I met a lot of people that year and always wanted to move back.
Mary Riley May 31, 2009 at 2:39am

Happy Birthday Carleen!

Hope you are enjoying your day.
GUY M VALVERDE May 30, 2009 at 4:17pm

Carleen,
God Bless You and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!! I didn't recognize you at first of course we all look different for sure, and noticed that Cathy Jones had been looking for me and it was you that had remembered that I was either from AZ or NM? Good memory, I took the class in AZ and was a WOW there and was originally from NM and is where I returned after leaving the 13th Corps. I had met Cathy in AZ and we were on Limb Staff w Duke Clarke and went in the 13th Corps together it's crazy I had started looking for her about 4 year's ago and had kind of given up then when I found this site saw she had been looking for me and your the ONLY ONE that even had any info and even the correct spelling of my last name.....bless you girl!!!! Your daughter is gorgious you better buy a shotgun....LOL. All His Love, guy

I joined, but it hasn't shown up on your page yet, so maybe I didn't push the right button...oh, well. Reading Jeff's posts and Janis's post helped me decide I have nothing to lose and possibly some great friendships to gain by joining, so here I am! Looking forward to making a Godly connection in His perfect timing. Thanks for making this group available.

I also took Jeff's and Vince's advice and checked out eHarmony and Plenty of Fish, so...we'll see what happens! I haven't dated for 20 years, so I'm a little rusty on what happens on first dates these days. (I probably should brush up, since my 15 year old son will be dating in the next year or so.) Let's face it, when you haven't dated since "Funky Cold Medina" "Blame it on the Rain" "If I Could Turn Back Time" and "Love Shack" were on the radio, there's some catching up to do! :D
Chere Poole March 10, 2009 at 4:50pm

Carleen, refresh my memory...who introduced us? Belinda Lockwood? Vanessa Travers? I'm trying to remember where I know you from...Emporia, HQ? I'm thinking of joining your group, but it's a little scary....I'm newly single.
Karin Kydland January 16, 2009 at 10:45am

Thanks--I left a message for Ron and one more for you.
Karin Kydland January 16, 2009 at 10:14am

I'm in MA--a far cry from where I thought I'd be when we graduated in 1988. Do you evern drive up 95 to Canada? If so, you ought to stop by sometime. Your daughter is lovely, by the way.

Great idea! We've never met - but I sure enjoyed your profile. You obviously beam about your daughter, just as I am so proud of my kids.
