Describe Yourself:
Recently widowed and grieving, cannot describe myself as single, hate seeing widowed listed on one checkmark along with single and divorced. It is not the same. Planning to carry out my late husband's and my intentions to adopt children. Live in center city Philadelphia and love it--more than 30 years. Have lived and taught EFL in Spain and S. Korea. Cooking and reading are my most serious hobbies. Love baseball and serious Phillies fan, even in the bad years!
