Market stall + Baby - My voice = Fun, as it turns out!
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
So today I literally juggled my baby and my business.
For some inexplicable reason, Salvador chose to LIE IN today for once and not wake up at 5.30am (I would insert the tears-streaming-down-face emoji here if I knew how to). So I lay in bed after my alarm went off trying to figure out which plan of action would create the least noise to not wake him because when he wakes up he wants a breastfeed and that takes 20 MINUTES (he's always been a relaxed drinker) and then I'd have to manage him and packing the car/showering/would I have time to shower anyway? Why wouldn't I just hand him over to my husband? Am I overthinking all this? OF COURSE I was overthinking everything and it all resulted in me unshowered and a bit late, but Salvador ultimately fed. I mean, really.
Anyway, my wonder husband took over the childcare, arranging to arrive at the market in time for the customers as I HAVE LOST MY VOICE (yes, I know, can you imagine a version of me not speaking all the time??!) I arrived at Fresh Market and found I was next to Lisa of Lady Bay Botanicals and Annie of HegARTie whale fame. When I turned my back in search of a tap to fill my water weights (that weigh down the market tent), they started putting up my marquee! Such lovely people.
Stall ready, husband and baby turn up and of course Salvador wants to be held by me the whole time so I'm basically screaming (which is coming out a loud whisper) over the babble of my baby who won't be held by anyone else and I can't put on the ground because it's too wet.
Do you know, I loved it! I loved chatting to people even with my pubescent boy voice and I love showing off my beautiful baby. I love playing with him! Have to admit though, all the chucking him around did make him vomit a little bit. Whoops.
Bronson was there the whole time ready to whisk him off when he needed a nap.
Around 11.30am, murmurs started rippling amongst the stall-holders of incoming torrential weather. We saw it coming, felt the first drops, packed up faster than ever before and headed over to the Main Beach Kiosk for a delicious lunch while baby Sal continued sleeping.
It was a very successful market for me and a great day as I framed up for the next one (this coming Sunday 17th March), did some writing (I have a freelance writing job) and wrote this blog post. Tomorrow morning, back to the easel...Bronson has a couple of days off work and Sal will enjoy some daddy daycare.
I guess the point of this blog is to remind you that I have beautiful prints to sell! Please check back to the shop part of the website and have a look around. As always, any feedback on my blog or website is much appreciated! Ta for now.
P.S. Here's one of my beautiful customers with her husband's birthday present. Thanks Georgie!

In December of 2023 my financial situation was a disaster after loosing my entire life savings to a brokerage corporation. As a newbie I was connected to a brokerage company which acted as an intermediary between me and the financial markets. Usually they secure my digital assets and use it to invest accordingly in various financial services such as crypto, stock, ETFs. I believed this company to be legit, this led me to unequivocally trust them with my financial future. My initial plans was to secure my assets with their company till after retirement but when an emergency came up, I had to fall back to my savings but on placing a withdrawal request, I was told I needed to pay a refundable deposit to process my withdrawal which I paid and waited 5 days as required yet no payment came through. I called again and was told this would be escalated to the financial department and a new payment was required then 5 day clock started again. After another 5 days I called to find out what was going on and was asked to make another payment as a result of some bs story they made up, I refused and as a consequence of that my account was frozen and all assets placed on hold. A realtor recommended JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE to me. And normally I would have brushed her off, but she was very enthusiastic about how they helped her colleague at work. my 6th appeal had just been turned down by them so I had nothing to lose in signing up the help of Top professional Recovery Team, that was on the 31 of may. Now 3 days after, the team successfully recovered my USDT assets from the broker company. Not just recovered in wallet, but I have liquidated everything to my bank account. From not being able to afford a proper meal to having everything, that’s the happy ending i labored for. I’ve recommended the realtor to everyone I meet, she has become part of our family. And of course i strongly recommend signing up with JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE to get your assets recovered,
