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...

To anyone who has lost money to scammers: don’t give up hope. I was in your shoes, and I know how devastating it feels. Back in 2022, I was living in France when I joined an online trading platform that promised quick returns through stock trading. It looked professional, and I even received weekly newsletters with stock tips and market analysis. I felt like I was finally in control of my financial future. I deposited €3,000 to start, and after a few weeks of decent profits, I made more deposits to take my game to the next level ( so I was told ) and this enabled me to earn an increased ROI. My account showed profits climbing to €325,000, and I was excited to finally make a withdrawal. But as soon as I tried, I hit roadblock after roadblock. First, they requested a €5000 processing fee. Then, they claimed I had to pay additional fees for ‘compliance’ and ‘liquidity risk management.’ Before I knew it, I had paid over €20,000 in fees and still couldn’t access my funds. That’s when I knew something was horribly wrong. The emotional stress was the hardest part. I had trusted this platform with money I had saved for my future, and losing it felt like a personal failure. But after some research, I connected with a community of victims who had gone through the same ordeal. It was through them that I found Ryan Ackroyd Wizard Expert, and they helped me recover 100% of my investment. It wasn’t an easy task, the process was precise and very direct and required full trust in the process. In the end, it was a win I’m proud of, and I’ve learned to be much more careful. I highly recommend contacting Ryan Ackroyd Wizard Expert if you’re struggling with a similar issue. contact them on EMAIL: ryanackroydwizardfundsrecovery@gmail.com

When I first deposited funds into Binary FX, the process was seamless, and they were quick to accept my money without hesitation. However, everything changed when I attempted to withdraw my funds. What initially appeared to be a straightforward process turned into a nightmare. Withdrawal requests were repeatedly delayed or outright ignored. Despite countless attempts to contact their customer support team, I was met with vague replies or no assistance at all. It felt like they had disappeared, leaving me stranded and frustrated. Losing $26,000 wasn’t just a financial blow, it was emotionally devastating. I had placed my trust in this platform, recommended by a friend since high school, believing it was a sound investment. Instead, I found myself entangled in a seemingly impossible situation. I tried every avenue of emails, calls, and relentless follow-ups—but each attempt only underscored the extent of the problem. It became evident that this company had no intention of fulfilling its promises. At my lowest point, a relative suggested I reach out to Digital resolution services. Initially, I was skeptical, uncertain if recovery was even possible after such an ordeal. Still, I decided to give it a chance, and that choice marked a turning point. The team at Digital resolution services was nothing short of remarkable. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication stood out immediately. They guided me through the intricate process of reclaiming my funds, offering strategic advice and practical solutions I hadn’t considered before. Throughout the journey, they kept me informed and reassured, ensuring I never felt alone in the fight. Thanks to their relentless efforts, I successfully recovered my $26,000. The relief was immense, and I am profoundly grateful for their support. Beyond recovering my money, they restored my confidence that even the most challenging situations can be resolved with the right help. I cannot thank Digital resolution services enough for their invaluable assistance and for turning a hopeless situation into a success story.
You can reach out to them if you ever find yourself in a situation like that, I guarantee you they will help.
