I heard this lady on the radio this morning.
She is determined and also makes me wonder...
She's looking for a husband - and she's giving herself just 365 days to find him.
A New Jersey woman is launching an interactive Web site Thursday with the ambitious goal of tracking down her soulmate by 2010.
Neenah Pickett, a 42-year-old media consultant from Somerset, N.J., dreamed up 52Weeks2FindHim.com while working with a company on a social networking and multimedia site two years ago.
"In 52 weeks, I hope to find him. I don't plan to walk down the aisle, but I want to meet him," she said. "Come New Year's Eve next year, I hope we'll be together."
Pickett, a bubbly Michigan native who moved to New York in her 20s, is certainly no wallflower. She was once engaged - to a man who wouldn't quite commit - and has been on more than 100 dates with men she has met online.
But as time passed, Pickett began to suspect that finding Mr. Right was going to take a more targeted effort.
"You can't keep doing the same thing and expecting different results," she said of attempts to find love online, through friends or on blind dates. "I was just sitting there, thinking things would happen."
With her friends' and family's blessing, Pickett created the extensive Web site. It features a daily blog, videos of Pickett describing herself, testimonials from her closest friends - and, of course, a way for men to submit themselves for consideration.
Pickett expects other single ladies to use the site's discussion board, polls and articles as a resource.
Pickett - who is 5-feet-2, thinks her best quality is her lips and enjoys hiking and movies - isn't limiting herself to a certain type of man, though she'd prefer someone who shares her Christian beliefs and has a good sense of humor.
