Inconsistency

Admittedly, I am a terribly inconsistent blogger.  But, that is because I allow life to get in the way of blogging...and I have absolutely no intention of changing.  I need to live my life and NOT miss it by writing about it all the time.  Am I right?  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE blogging and I love all of the wonderful friends I have connected with through blogging, but it's definitely not at the top of my list of priorities.  That would be my family and it will stay that way.

I have also been inconsistent with my faith, which is something I am working on.  Hubby and I have found a new church that we are going to start attending and I hope it brings us both back to the places where we need to be.  I have heard so many wonderful things about this church and its ministries.  If you live in the Charleston area and attend SeaCoast Church, would you send me an email (MunchkinMemoirs at gmail dot com)?  I'd love to hear from you.
I have been inconsistent with my weekend wrap-up posts as well.  :Sigh:  They should come on Mondays but that rarely seems to happen anymore.  Oh well.  I guess Wednesday is as good as any day.

We had a rough week last week but we had a nice weekend.  Things at work are progressively getting worse but I am holding out hope that something changes, either for the company or for me.  Hubby is getting better.  His infection is almost completely gone and yesterday was the last day I had to put that stupid antibiotic cream up my nose.  Yeah, very pleasant.

We babysat my mom's dog, Rascal all weekend.  My mom, my stepdad, and my two brothers all went to stay in my grandmother's mountain house.  They packed a ton in to just those four days, among them going to Dollywood.  They had fun but I think they're going to need a vacation from their vacation!  Rascal did pretty well.  That first night I wanted to strangle him because he wouldn't go to sleep, but the next few nights were better.  His presence always seems to cause Mr. Bentley to forget his potty training somewhat which is annoying, but it's not Rascal's fault.  Luckily the accidents were close to the potty pads so it wasn't too bad.  Boys will be boys!

Saturday I had to take my rings to be inspected.  I have to do that every 6 months to keep the warranty good (this basically means that if a diamond falls out, they replace it with one of equal quality and value for no charge).  I always love going and having my rings cleaned.  I clean them at home with the solution recommended by Tiffany & Co but having them cleaned by the jeweler is always a treat.

We picked up the Munchkins & Rascal and went to Hairy Winston to drop off some of my brand spanking new business cards and then it was home for dinner.

Sunday we treated ourselves to a nice lunch at Brixx (we had a coupon and I wasn't about to let it go to waste!).  I had the Roasted Chicken Caprese pizza with wood-roasted chicken, sun-dried tomato pesto, shredded basil, roma tomatoes, and fresh house-made mozzarella.  Hubby had the Hawaiian pizza with fresh pineapple, prosciutto, and mozzarella topped with fresh cilantro.  For dessert, the best freakin' tiramisu I've ever had in my life.  YUMMMMMM!  It was fabulous.

The rest of Sunday was pretty laid back.  This week so far has been rainy.  Very very rainy.  And it stinks...but hopefully it brings with is coolor, more fall-like temperatures.  But, Lord knows we can still have a 70 degree Christmas here in SC and no I'm not kidding.  Christmas before last it was warm enough to wear a short-sleeve dress.  How do I know?  Because I did!

I possibly have a mini photo shoot with my good friend C's daughter T.  She just turned 1 this summer and C has been wanting to get some photos of her.  I have SIL's dress fitting on Saturday and her monogram shower on Sunday.  You will be seeing lots of posts mentioning showers because SIL has seven.  Yes, I said SEVEN.  A little excessive?  Absolutely but it isn't her doing.  Hopefully she gets everything she needs for her new place. :)
I have a photo shoot next Saturday, possibly one on Sunday, and one the follow Saturday, followed by another of SIL's showers on Sunday.  Crazy!!!  And it won't stop until after the holidays.  Boy am I gonna need a vacation after the first of the year!
 
Oh, and just a little sneak peak of the newborn shoot I had with Gib.

OK so what kind of ring cleaner do you use and where do you buy it? My rings are always dirty! I go pretend to browse at the jewlers every now and then because they will clean your rings while you're browsing..hehe

I love the photo!! Precious!

I think I've only ever had a ring professionally cleaned once and that was when I had it resized. It came back so shiny and pretty!

Sounds like you're very busy!

It is always a treat to find a post from you. Life is for living and I am glad you are right in it. Don't forget to put the camera down and really see things too. I have been quilty of having vacations through a camera lens. Love the hat on that adorable baby boy.
