ABOUT THIS LISTER
I’m a 39 year old Kindergartner thru 8 Grade PE teacher. Ambivert leaning extroverted — I enjoy short chats but value personal space. I’m usually out 2–3 nights a week (pottery or jiu-jitsu). I cook most meals at home, so a clean kitchen is a priority. Currently recovering from shoulder surgery, so I’m home a bit more than usual.
