The Ring

Here I am.  Sitting at Howl at the Moon....Having a great time.  I see at least 8 bridesmaids and their party.  I sit and watch and I chuckle a bit.  Why? Well simply because a girl meets a boy, meshes and waits and hopes that he pops the question so she can plan her perfect wedding.  I see beautiful diamond rings on the fingers of these girls and feel happy for them but at the same time, I feel sorry for them.  A ring and the size of the stone doesn't justify a damn thing.

I have a beautiful engagement ring.  A ring stores away.  When I got married, I asked my husband not to waste money on a wedding band. 

Later in life we got tattoos on our wedding finger with the initial of our 1st name and it was the most awesome thing we have that means more than a diamond ring.  I love my husband and our union!

Memorial Weekend

Memorial Weekend has come and gone.  We had so much to do and yet we came out of it with flying colors. Friday - This was the night of our end of the year party for work.  This is when our senior residents and fellows receive their certificates for completing their training in Radiology.  It was a great night with my coworkers and their partners.  We rarely get together anymore so when we do, it's like we pick up right were we left off. Saturday - Bel, Bella, JP and I left SA and drove to College Station to attend Trent's HS graduation.  He is the 1st of Bob & Helen's grandchildren to graduate.  WOW, I can believe when he was just a kid and now he's a man.  I also can't believe my niece is now driving!!!  Of course I was teased about stepping foot on Aggieland and I also teased that I wanted to buy some protective wear for my shoes so that I didn't actually have to touch the campus.  It was all in fun though.  J wants to go to A...

How are you doing today?  How has your week been?  We are doing great here at the Kenney-Perez household.  Last night I was stuck watching Lifetime movies....ugh-I try so hard not to watch that channel because once I start....i have to keep watching movie after movie.  Thursday nights are True Story movies based on actual events.  I feel like i'm watching Snapped in a way...Well, it was quite interesting.  Since I stayed home from work to be with Ben...i did laundry and watched Lifetime Movies..... Ben had his oral surgery on Wed. morning and he did so good..........considering. WEDNESDAY-Our day started out like this....I woke up around 8 and took a shower to wake up.  After getting dressed and making myself presentable, I put a load of laundry in the washer.  Ben's surgery was scheduled for 11:15 and poor guy couldn't eat anything after midnight the night before.  I woke the boys up and got them going.  Ben was so excited and woke u...

Vampires and Lions and Tigers and Bears...OH MY!

Oh......what have I gotten myself into? I've always had this fascination with Vampires every since I can remember.  At what point in my life did I become obsessed?  I've watched many a movie...read books....but none have had me going back for more than the Twilight saga!  In the beginning, I heard about the movie and thought I would have to see it to give it a fair opinion....I saw the movie Twilight....literally DRAGGGGGGGING my family with me on Thanksgiving weekend 2008.  My husband was NOT thrilled at my movie choice, but he was surprised that he enjoyed the movie.  From that moment on, I knew I had to read the books!  Besides, the books are ALWAYS better than the movies.   The 1st weekend of December 2009, Missy and I were in Corpus for soccer playoffs and our hotel was next to a theatre.....we got in our PJ's Saturday night and walked next door to watch the 10:30 p.m.  showing of New Moon (2nd movie).  I loved Edward until I got a l...
