Jeff and I spent last weekend shopping for my perfect pants — or in this case, the perfect shorts. Most husbands aren’t very enthusiastic about shopping with their wives; but, we have already established that Jeff is an exceptional husband. And besides, the ellusive shorts were a sporting goods acquisition which put them [...]

This I Know
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
I learned something new this week….April and May are the top months for tornado touch-downs in the state of Tennessee. I tend to believe the statistic to be correct. In the last week, we’ve had two tornado warnings (With grave forecasts of another today.) and enough lightning to make the cats all [...]

In Search of the Weinermobile
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Utterly baffled. That’s what we were. Wednesday morning Jeff and I stood, shivering violently, in the rental car garage at the airport in Omaha, Nebraska. We had rented a car but, due to a series of unfortunate events, (Belonging to the rental company, not us.) we were still waiting for [...]

A Rich Life
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
It’s cold today. I’m looking out the window watching it rain. I just had a moment of déja vu as this is sounding very much like the beginning of my blog of a few weeks ago.
There are a few major differences though. One being that my usual view as I blog is of our cookie-cutter [...]

Our Best Nights
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Friday nights are date nights for Jeff and Kieran Rich. We take turns planning dates and try really hard to come up with something original once in a while – something that doesn’t include the standard “dinner and a movie.”
As a result, we’ve had some interesting dates. One such date included [...]

The Promise of Spring
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
It’s a frosty morning here in middle Tennessee. It’s so cold that the cats won’t even sleep in their climbing tower — which is situated in front of the only window in our office. Usually, the tower is the coveted cat location and we have fur-flinging fights over who gets to [...]

A Painful Epiphany
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Something happened to me last Sunday that has never happened before. Jeff and I were visiting the next contestant in our seemingly ever-present quest to find a new church home. Nothing unusual there. We were enjoying the experience, although the church was on the smallish-side, thus making Jeff and I stick out [...]

To Live with Fear
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Note: This blog has been kicking around in my draft file for several months now as its subject is something I truly struggle with and am not exactly comfortable writing about. Every time I’ve written on this file, I kept asking myself, “Do I really want to put all of these [...]

Out of my Shell
By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
I decided last week that I didn’t want to be “Kiera” anymore. It’s just not natural and it’s just not me. Yes, I do realize that I am opening myself up to a lifetime of correcting people about how to pronounce my name; but it’s better this way — at least [...]

Caution: Falling Coyotes
By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
I was feeling a little under the weather yesterday morning. So instead of doing my usual Saturday stuff, I sat on the couch with the remote, a big fuzzy blanket, and two even fuzzier cats. Feeling gross always makes me reach for the familiar and the comfortable. Yesterday was no exception as [...]
