My Family

Welcome to the Homepage of Katrina Clark

It's my mother and brother. My dad doesn't live with us anymore. He actually hasn't been in the same house for a while. And for even longer he's been emotionally away from us- as a support anyway. Most of the time he refuses to talk to me. He's usually pissed at me for some reason or other. I have basically stopped feeling bad for this since most of the time his anger is irrational. I guess that's where I get it from.

Here's a pic of my family now.

This is my mom, Janet. This is me, Katrina. This is my brother, Brian.

My mother is the third oldest out of four children. She has two older brothers and a younger sister. All of my mother's mother's- that would be my grandmother- children live in Philadelphia except for the oldest who lives in North Carolina. All of my grandmother's children are divorced or separated except for the younger boy. Everyone's living on their own except for my mother. (Not that anyone wants to admit it...) Everyone is white except for my aunt. No one talks about or understands that one. In fact, we don't talk about much as a family. We don't really sit down and discuss issues. I'm not sure how we deal with them. I guess maybe people don't feel that the issues are that important. Maybe they're not. Who's to say?

This is my cousin, Brandon. This is my brother, Brian. This is my cousin, Gena. This is me, Katrina. This is my cousin, Corissa. This is my cousin, Leah Ruth.

We went to take family portraits at some place like Sears or Penney's or something.This is always an ordeal because everyone is so silly. People annoy each other. People get tired of waiting for other people..... La La La.... Anyway, when we finished taking our real pictures we, the "grandchildren" decided that we wanted to be sillier than usual. So we decided to grab some toys and be really weird. This picture is the result of that day. Run your mouse over the picture for names.
