MON PETITE BROCANTE

Well, it was quite adventure.
Let me ask you something, what you do after you clean up your closet, and find out you have a lot of clothes you don't wear. I am not different in any way, when I have to get ready for something or nothing specific, and I open my closet, which is by the way full to the top, and can't find nothing to wear. I don't have nothing to wear! Imagine my shock, LOL, and my husband's of course, when I told him that...
Here in France they have super cool thing, which I adore, BROCANTE. I believe in USA it's a flee market. Well, whatever it's name I like it, to visit, to shop, to turn around, and to sell.
Never believed that I can do selling, in that way, but I like it a lot. My impressions are very positive. People here are very polite, I enjoy talking French language, even although my grammar is miserable, but hey we learn from our mistakes.
Here is what I will propose you: I will make a brocante on my blog, however only for France/Grenoble, city of Alpes. Hope you'll like what you will find.

 A bientôt

INSPIRATION

Today I was looking for an inspiration. Everybody is well-known with the feeling of writer’s block, I was no exception.
As I am still somewhat new on this blog, I was going trough your blogs, read some of the recipes, found something new, and learn also. As home stay mom, we know it is not easy to fight with free time, because the kid is the one who win all the times. My friends usually ask me, how I manage to keep my figure in good shape, and still I’m eating for two ( habit from last pregnancy), LOL bad habits, always leave their roots. My answer is very simple, I run after my child, who is still learning to walk, 24/7 a day, my time is after 21:00h when she goes to sleep. That’s the diet we home stay moms use all the time. It has been secret for ages now, so here it is. Have a kid, or two, and jump around like kangaroo.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my kid more than anything in the world, can;t imagine my life without her. The love between a child and a mother is a unique. There is no such love like mother and her baby. I never experienced until I borne my first baby.

The secret of life has been reveled, I leave to you to wisely choose your options.

“Sometimes when you pick up your child you can feel the map of your own bones beneath your hands, or smell the scent of your skin in the nape of his neck. This is the most extraordinary thing about motherhood – finding a piece of yourself separate and apart that all the same you could not live without.” Jodie Picoult

HARD DAY

These days one of my biggest occupation is searching the ways to gain some more income for my family. There is a lot of people saying why don't you get a job, go and search. It sound more easier to stay, than to be done. Anyone who deal before or even in present time, are already familiar with the topic. It is just not so easy guys. Especially if you are a mother. I have a wonderful 15 month old baby girl, who's teeth is growing in light speed, so imagine just how much sleep I get. In all that fuss I'm searching for online job. With my time of sleeping disorder I can not be a good presentation for interview, but not just only that I have to do all the stuff usually every mom do, during the day. Cook, clean, cook, clean, go to store, cook and clean. I manage to sneak out some time for myself and my writing after my baby girl fall asleep, but that's all what I can get for now.

So, I decided to go out, by out mean online and search for some job. Anywhere I look, anywhere I read it was earnings and money bills. Ok, so I try a couple of that ridiculous websites and I just lost my time on it.
I will mention one of them, because it look like really cool site, with good opportunity.
Bubblews- There is two option regarding this site. Or it have some kind of malfunctions and it crash all the time, or they don't like to pay out. I register the first time, and during that day everything pass smooth, and nice. I submitted some articles, and people there are very friendly, they start to connect. Every time someone like, comment or read your article you get paid. Another day has come, and I'm not able to login. After couple of tries I give up, and register with the same username and same password, but register. It mean everything from the beginning. Ok, It's not the end of the world, everything I write before I can rewrite it, and I did. I write, submit, and again lost everything. This makes me wonder are they joking?
However I have to be honest here I saw some people having a hundreds of their post there, and twitting them all the time. Maybe it's just me and my jinx.

"I was always an unusual girl.
My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality; just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean.”

“You've got this life and while you've got it, you'd better kiss like you only have one moment, try to hold someone's hand like you will never get another chance to, look into people's eyes like they're the last you'll ever see, watch someone sleeping like there's no time left, jump if you feel like jumping, run if you feel like running, play music in your head when there is none, and eat cake like it's the only one left in the world!”  C.JoyBell.C
