Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
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...

Please read that I have heard of him on several health sites and blogs, but after watching the documentary Last Days of Left Eye, I was turned on to the full story about Dr. Guba. He is a man who has the Cure for Herpes virus, victims of major traumatic accidents, and critically ill patients with life threatening illness, through natural herbs, herbal cream, and healing oil. He never went to college or medical school but inherited the gift from his forefathers. I contacted Dr Guba Solution Temple, he sent me some herbs, cream, and healing oil, which I made use of for a period of three weeks to get my healing. Note: After the first one week of usage, I started noticing great changes all over my body. The healing oil remedy works so quickly and miraculously that I can confidently say that Dr. Guba SOLUTION TEMPLE is a dependable, reliable, and trustworthy herbal clinic. If you find yourself or someone else in a similar or worse situation, I highly recommend reaching out to you by sending him an email via: drgubahealingherbs@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +2347077581439 or website: https://drgubahealingherbs.wixsite.com/guba-healing-herbs
