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!
I highly recommend anyone out there with herpes that it is curable. After years of trial and failed attempt Dr. chalopa did it in 2 weeks. I wonder if there are other ways to say thank you than to share a quick note on how he cured my Herpes virus a year and some months ago. I was totally surprised when I went for medical report and seeing that I was totally free from the virus, it’s made me speechless and with so much joy. However, he also treat other illnesses.

Hello everyone, my name is Maya Elise, and I’m from Singapore. Back in 2013, I stumbled upon a company called Blockchain Mate, an investment firm based in Washington, DC. At that time, I was eager for a secure retirement investment and, after some convincing, I decided to invest with them, looking forward to a steady paycheck yearly. Over the years, the company transitioned to cryptocurrency investments, and I followed suit, excited about the potential growth.
However, everything changed when the pandemic hit in 2020. I wanted to access my funds, only to discover that I had been scammed. Despite countless attempts to retrieve my money, I was met with dead ends and frustration. By the end of 2023, in a moment of sheer desperation, I was scrolling through my Facebook timeline when I encountered a post about a company called Mighty Hacker Recovery specializing in investment recovery.
Intrigued, I reached out to them through their website http://mightyhackarrecovery.com and WhatsApp +14042456415. From the get-go, I was impressed by their professionalism and dedication. They immediately began investigating and tracking down the fraudulent company and its location. To my astonishment, just 44 days later, they successfully recovered my funds and deposited them back into my account.
I consider myself incredibly fortunate; I know many have not been as lucky. Mighty Hacker Recovery truly restored my hope, proving that there is always a chance for others who find themselves in similar situations. Their expertise in access, money, and data recovery is unparalleled, and I can wholeheartedly say they are the best in the world. Thank you, Mighty Hacker Recovery, for giving me my life back.
