How would you describe yourself?
Single Dad, divorced almost 2 years. I have a daughter. I live with my daughter and widower father in a modest home in CT, USA. I have had the same job for 25 years. I was badly injured in 2009, and I am currently very overweight. I’m working on getting my weight down. I have a small garden I started it will be a few years before the fruit trees, and berry bushes produce. I have majority custody of my daughter. Her mother sees her mostly on weekends. It was a bitter divorce but we are trying to get along better now.

One day I want to retire to a large property where I can grow a vast garden and have a peaceful sunset.
