Hi, Im Veronica 'Ronie' and my hubby's name is Jim. We got married last year on Oct 23 and have our ceremony this year on our 1 year anniversary. I work for Marsh USA (Insurance Brokerage) and Jim works for American Express Financial Advisors.

Jim was born in Hong Kong moved to New York State when he was 3 and moved to Long Island around High School age.

I was born in Houston, move all about as a Military brat and ended up in San Antonio for 13 years before moving to NYC for a guy (who didnt pan out) and met Jim instead online.

We love to play pool, video games, see new places, I love to drive and we go to car shows often.

My parents are in Iowa (moved there a year after I left Texas) and my brother lives there too. Rest of my family is in Texas mostly.

Jim's immediate family is here, but the rest is scattered in California, China & UK.

lets see..

Oh and we live with his grandmother & Brother. His sister comes home from college (Albany) and his mother comes by every now and then. And we live with a cat.. the main attraction of the house and ruler of the couch...
Buddy. Big fat gray cat with a white patch on his chest.
