I didn't have friends to the family dinner table very often, but a question I've been asked more than once after is...

"Are they always like that?"

Grandfather: carpenter.

Grandmothers: housewives.

Great aunts: a nun and an actress.

Aunts and uncles: on the streets or very wealthy.

Siblings: one died early 20s, another has remained dependent, teacher, doctor, artist.

There are nieces and nephews I love, but I have been out of contact for about 20 years. There are cousins, but I never really knew them.

I think that is my family.

If you ever asked my stepbrother (may he rest in peace) to make a cup of tea or coffee, he would make it straight from the hot tap

My great aunt Irena is going to turn 90 very soon :)
