    About this ebook

    Call them dysfunctional, crazy, rednecks or trash - they're the only family I've got. I'd wager that the reader also knows all too well people just like them, and for that and many other things, we can be thankful.

      Q I'm sure you'll think I'm ridiculous: I'm a 70-year-oldwoman and I'm starting to wonder if I might not be gay. I did get married and had two children whom I adore, but I've always felt an outsider. I've always had very close friendships with women
