Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!

Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!

Every mother knows this feeling. Your needs don't always match up to your little one's needs and there is a push/pull. At the beginning you kind of have to get out of bed and feed the baby (how dare they be hungry when you're desperately trying to get just one hour shut-eye?!) and look after them the rest of the time. If you're a completely deranged control freak like me (and there are no local grandparents to detach you from your new family member) you think you should be with them all the time until you go completely mad. I don't recommend this. 

N.B. This is the daycare (how fun! so much stuff! nature!) not my backyard.

My point is that we've put Salvador in daycare and I've been transitioning to this new reality, just like he has. He actually really likes it. I only rang up 12 times on the first day. It's gone down a bit since then. 

He's only in two days a week, but from next week it will be three. Is this fair? Is painting a real job? Does it warrant incarcerating my child? *slight hysteria rising in voice* Well, clients are paying me to paint so it's a freelance job that's earning us an income. What about when I'm painting for an exhibition? What about when I take a break? Am I allowed to take breaks?

Most of us have to work and that usually means their children have to be looked after by others. It just feels so weird to be entirely freelance so no boss, no hours to keep to, at home, but without Salvador. I think the weird part is that painting doesn't feel like a job. It's a part of me I need to feed to calm me down and make me (relatively, ah-hem) normal. If I didn't like my job, would that validate daycare somehow?

What do you think? To daycare or not to daycare. To follow your passion and build an art career or to smother your little one in kisses all day (which let's face it, is a pretty good way to spend your time). These are my questions...

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.

It was a quiet Tuesday morning. I logged into my Bitcoin wallet like I had a hundred times before, expecting to check balances and plan trades. But instead of numbers, I saw a void — a zero balance staring back at me like a cruel joke.

I blinked. Refreshed. Checked again. Still empty. Over $3,000,000…gone. Just like that. The air seemed to thicken around me. My heart raced. For a moment, I thought it was a glitch. But the harsh truth set in quickly: I had been hacked.

The realization was crushing. This wasn’t just money. It was years of savings, strategic investments, and early adoption that I had poured my soul into. And now it had vanished in the blink of an eye, swept away like dust in the wind.

I contacted my wallet provider. No help. Filed reports. Got silence. Every road led to a dead end. The blockchain — as transparent as it is — offers little mercy when it comes to reversing a malicious transaction.

Days passed in a haze. Sleep eluded me. The thought that I had lost everything was like a weight I couldn’t shake.

But just when despair threatened to become permanent, I stumbled on an article — a digital forensics firm had helped a tech entrepreneur recover his stolen crypto. At first, I was skeptical. There are too many scams promising hope only to exploit vulnerability. But something about the way they operated, their transparency and technical insights, gave me pause.

They were called SPYHOST — a digital assets recovery group that specialized in crypto theft investigation and blockchain tracing. I sent a cautious email to: Spyhost@cyberdude.com.

Within hours, I got a response. What followed was nothing short of extraordinary.

They assigned a recovery specialist to my case. The team dissected the movement of my stolen BTC across the blockchain, mapping the laundering patterns through mixers, identifying exchange addresses, and even liaising with enforcement and security contacts when necessary.

It felt like watching digital detectives at work — forensic, methodical, relentless.

And then, ten days later, came the email that brought me to tears:

“We’ve traced the stolen funds to cold wallets linked to a known laundering syndicate. Action has been taken. Check your wallet.”

I logged in, my hands trembling. The familiar figure was back. My $3 million was restored.

To this day, I still can’t quite put into words the mix of disbelief, gratitude, and awe I felt. I had prepared to move on with my life with nothing. Instead, I got everything back.

So if you’re reading this and facing a similar nightmare, know this: there is hope. Blockchain may be unforgiving, but the right expertise can turn the tide.

Reach out to the team that helped me. You can contact them via email: Spyhost@cyberdude.com. They didn’t just recover my assets — they helped me reclaim my peace of mind.
