1. Are you and your birth family close?
Not really, I'm pretty much estranged from them due to all the hell they put me through the past forty years of my life.
2. How far away do you live from your various family members?
My parents and younger brother live in town, my older sister and her family live several towns over, and my older brother lives in East Texas.
3. When was the last time you visited with relatives?
This afternoon, I dropped by my old home, my parents' place, to get the rare piece of mail I still get there.
4. Do your relatives travel to visit you?
No, thankfully, and until they sincerely apologize for all the shit they put me through during my life, my apartment is off-limits to them.
5. How do you stay in touch with family: phone calls, email, snail mail, texts, other?
Mostly text since I can't stand the sound of their voices.
