Long Story Short...: Reunion?
http://colleencomments.blogspot.com/2010/05/reunion.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. Why hello there, Internets. I know, I know. I just up and left you all. Hanging. Wondering. Waiting. Well, I apologize. I owe you that much at least. What I also owe you is an explanation. Unfortunately, I can't do that. So, instead, I'm going to just say, please. Welcome me back. Will you have me? I sure hope so. My how I've missed you. Remember the good days? The fond memories we shared? The joys that we endured? It's possible to forgive and not forget. And, yet, nothing has changed.

Long Story Short...: A Bit Like the Hokey Pokey
http://colleencomments.blogspot.com/2009/10/bit-like-hokey-pokey.html
Friday, October 30, 2009. A Bit Like the Hokey Pokey. Everyone knows what people say. That change is good. It makes life interesting. Keeps us guessing. It was a Friday night, in June of 2000. I was at a wedding in St. Louis. My cousin Mike was getting married, and it was a fun O'Brien party—lots of laughs, dancing and, yes, wine. After my second glass, I leaned over to Molly, my cousin who was a year behind me in school and had just graduated from KU, and asked her what she was planning to do now. I was...

The Crazy Crawford Clan: A Visit with Granddaddy
http://crazycrawfordclan.blogspot.com/2009/11/visit-with-granddaddy.html
The Crazy Crawford Clan. Wednesday, November 4, 2009. A Visit with Granddaddy. Daddy had decorated the entry to his driveway with scarecrows, hay bales,leaves, sunflowers, pumpkins, orange twinkle light, and a light up Mickey Mouse jack-o-lantern. It was all so cute and festive and the kids just loved it! We all talked about this and that and everything else and all too soon, it was time to go. I don't get to see my dad as often as I should so I try to make the most out of every visit. A Little To Reid.

The Crazy Crawford Clan: August 2009
http://crazycrawfordclan.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
The Crazy Crawford Clan. Monday, August 31, 2009. We watched the beginning of the race just outside of Red Rooster but walked down to the courthouse to wait for the runners to return. AJ picked her spot and watched the runners come in. By the end of race Molly was getting tired and a little fussy. But so were many others. I just don't have pictures of them. So, we had to say goodbye to the Bergerons for the evening. Monsters of the Deep. The exhibit had re-creations of both current and prehistoric aquati...

Long Story Short...: Home is Where the Spackle Is
http://colleencomments.blogspot.com/2010/01/home-is-where-spackle-is.html
Monday, January 4, 2010. Home is Where the Spackle Is. In this economic climate, I know that there is a lot of intelligent discussion about how best to spend your money. There are experts that debate the rent vs. own situation all the time. I am not one of those experts. Sometimes I wish, and wonder, if I'd be better off if I were still flushing $1,000 in monthly rent. In short, I spent a grueling 3 months looking for the right place with my amazing realtor, Tom,. The building was converted to condos in ...

The Crazy Crawford Clan: June 2009
http://crazycrawfordclan.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
The Crazy Crawford Clan. Saturday, June 27, 2009. Back in March when we found this fella next to our koi pond, we thought it was kind of cool that we had a frog. Then, he started to "ribbit' at night. It's not really a "ribbit" sound but believe me, he loves to make his sound. By the end of April/first of May we began hearing another frog. Oh great, he has a friend! And they like to have croaking contests every night. Then Rick found this old fish bowl and decided to give them a bigger home. Chloe's So F...

Long Story Short...: I'm a Sport
http://colleencomments.blogspot.com/2010/05/im-sport.html
Monday, May 10, 2010. Once upon a time, I was quite sporty. And now, after a 30-minute workout video, I can hardly move. Sitting down was hard today. Getting up was even worse. Muscles I didn't even know I had hurt. My hair may even be sore. I hate you, Jillian Michaels. It almost hurts to type. With summer on its way, I know cognitively I should be exercising to rid my body of the layer of fat (layers? That have accumulated through the last six months (nine? But I just have to be honest. The separate ou...

Long Story Short...: It Rings True
http://colleencomments.blogspot.com/2010/06/it-rings-true.html
Tuesday, June 1, 2010. It's a double-edged sword, to say the least. Unfortunately, for me, the conversation almost inevitably, and so it should, turns to children. How many, what ages, what sports they play, what talents they possess, and so on. Ironically, then, that it is the exact same conversation that often reveals to me the stark contrast between what clients, vendors or prospects THINK of me, and what is real. Most obviously, my age. Because at this point, I'm practically willing to buy a CZ ring ...
