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!
HOW TO HIRE A GENUINE CRYPTO RECOVERY SERVICE WITH WEB BAILIFF CONTRACTOR
My name is Robert Alfred, and I’m from Australia. I’m posting my experience with the hope that it will be helpful to others who’ve been victims of crypto scams. A few months ago, I became the victim of a false crypto investment scam linked with a broker company. I’d invested heavily at the time when Bitcoin prices were rising, thinking it was a golden opportunity. I was unfortunately scammed of $120,000 AUD and the broker blocked me from accessing my digital wallet and funds. It was a terrible experience that gave me a lot of sleepless nights. Cryptocurrency scams are increasingly common today and typically include fraudulent trading websites, phishing, and fake investment proposals. I was desperate, and a friend from the crypto community suggested Web Bailiff Contractor Service, which had a reputation for assisting victims in recovering stolen or lost funds. I did my research, read some positive reviews, and contacted Web Bailiff Contractor. I gave them all the information required—wallet addresses, transaction history, and chat logs. Their professional team got back to me immediately and started the investigation. Using sophisticated blockchain tracking methods, they traced the stolen Dogecoin, located the scammer’s wallet, and worked together with the appropriate authorities to freeze the funds before they were transferred. Miraculously, within a 24-hour period, Web Bailiff Contractor was able to recover the majority of my stolen crypto holdings. I was ecstatic with relief and so thankful. Their professionalism, transparency, and regular updates throughout the process provided me with hope when I was in a very dark place. If you have been a victim of a crypto scam, then I highly suggest them with absolute confidence reaching out
I’ve been attempting to expand my wine business in my hometown in White Plains. For the past 7 years, I do play the lottery in my spare time, but on this blessed day I came across an article about Lord Meduza’s spell to win the lottery. I contacted Lord Meduza to see if it would work and after I agreed to his terms and conditions for completing the task for me, he performed his magical powers for me and within 48 hours, he provided me with the numbers I needed to play the lottery, and I followed his directions. I found out at the store that I was the winner of a $105 million jackpot. For a moment I felt uncertain but I looked again and I saw it was real. As I speak to you, My level has been elevated from grass to grace and I’ve come to know that life is more spiritual and with the Lord Meduza spell, you can actually win the lottery. Please assist me in thanking him and his contacts are listed below
