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 had been experimenting with automated crypto trading bots and came across a Telegram channel that promised insane returns. They showed screenshots of profits and even had a fake community to hype it up. It felt convincing so I gave it a shot. I transferred over $4,000 worth of ETH to their so-called trading wallet and that was the last I saw of it. The bot stopped responding and the admins deleted their messages and vanished. My heart sank.
I couldn’t sleep for nights. It wasn’t just the money but the humiliation that I got fooled so easily. I tried reporting it everywhere but nothing happened. Most people told me there was no hope of getting anything back. I almost believed them until someone in a crypto forum told me about Asset-Resolute.
I emailed them and they replied faster than I expected. They asked me for transaction details and the wallet address I had sent the ETH to. They didn’t make any exaggerated promises but I could tell they knew exactly what they were doing. Within days they traced the stolen funds through multiple wallets and provided a clear explanation of what had happened and where my assets ended up.
A couple of weeks later they actually helped recover a portion of my funds. I cried when I saw the confirmation come through. It felt like someone had given me a second chance.
If you have lost crypto and feel like all hope is gone please reach out to Asset-Resolute. Their email is assetresolute@gmail.com. They truly care and they know what they are doing. I will always be grateful for what they did for me.
A Life-Changing Experience, Dr Kachi A Testimony of Gratitude
I would like to share an extraordinary experience that has transformed my life. I came across a remarkable testimony online forum about a powerful and renowned spell caster, Dr. Kachi. At the time, I was skeptical because I had never encountered anything related to magic or spell casting before. However, the story of Dr. Kachi’s work resonated with me, and I decided to give it a chance. For years, my family and I struggled financially, and despite my best efforts, I never had luck winning the lottery. I loved playing, but winning seemed impossible. Everything changed when I connected with Dr. Kachi, who provided me with a winning lottery number through a powerful spell. In just 24 hours, I was able to play the lottery and won the Lotto 6/49 prize, a remarkable $68 million cash prize, on September 27th in the Gold Ball Draw. This incredible win has completely changed my life and the financial well-being of my entire family. After 10 years of trying unsuccessfully, I am now living my dream life. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Kachi for his assistance, Dr. Kachi has truly been a blessing to me and my loved ones. I encourage anyone who is interested to reach out to Dr. Kachi for guidance. his website https://drkachispellcaster.wixsite.com/my-site or email drkachispellcast@gmail.com Also reach him text or call +1 (209) 893-8075.Thank you once again, Dr. Kachi, for making my dreams come true.
