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...

I’m at a loss for how to express this. My sister welcomed twin daughters in July, and I found myself in a difficult financial and emotional state. I am known as Celta Vallecano, and during my quest to find quick cash, I came across an advertisement claiming that Lord Meduza provides precise numbers to those genuinely selected for freedom from financial struggles through his genuine spell. I felt compelled to take a chance, and ever since reaching out to Lord Meduza, my life has significantly improved.. As I write this, I am now a winner of €375 Million Euros after adhering to all the guidance and utilizing the MEGA MILLIONS numbers provided by Lord Meduza. I want to express my gratitude for the fact that assistance is indeed possible, regardless of how difficult your circumstances may seem. I highly recommend him in case you require any assistance.

The knot in my stomach tightened as I stared at the empty crypto account. Six months of pouring my life savings into Quantum Gains Trading, a slick, professional platform promising astronomical, guaranteed returns. The founder had vanished, the website was a 404 error, and my entire retirement of $850,000 was gone. The police and financial regulators offered sympathy and a case number that would gather dust. I was devastated, ruined. In a desperate, late-night search, I stumbled upon Alpha Spy Nest, a private digital forensics and recovery firm. Their reputation was legendary, their fees steep, but their confidence was the first flicker of hope I’d felt. I contacted. They were blunt, Fake crypto trading is a digital ghost hunt. But they always leave a trace. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t chase the domain. They hunted for the money. They used sophisticated blockchain analysis, tracing the withdrawal transactions through a labyrinth of tumblers and intermediary wallets. It was like following a single drop of ink in the ocean. After weeks, they found a pattern, the stolen funds were eventually aggregated into a handful of high-security, offshore cold storage wallets before being slowly converted to fiat and withdrawn. The scammer was meticulous, but predictable. The breakthrough came when Alpha Spy Nest cross-referenced the unique transaction patterns with known criminal syndicate markers. They identified a specific cluster of wallets linked to a notorious Eastern European fraud ring. More importantly, they found a critical vulnerability, a single, brief period when the syndicate always moved a portion of their holdings for operating expenses, cycling it through a less-secure centralized exchange in a small Asian country. I recovered $795,000 over 93% of my lost savings. The emotional recovery would take longer, but Alpha Spy Nest hadn’t just recovered money; they had recovered my future.

Two years single in A, I’d poured my heart into crypto, converting 12,500 euros into Bitcoin to build a future. But a phishing scam disguised as a flirty email from a “naval officer”—stole it all. The blockchain confirmed the theft; my wallet was empty. Police were clueless, and loneliness amplified my despair. X posts warned of scams, but one mentioned Cyber Codex Revolution. Hesitant, I emailed [email protected]. They responded: “We’re forensic experts. Send the detail fees upfront. I shared the transaction hash and phishing email. Their team—hackers, coders, traced the BTC through mixers to a shady exchange. “We’ve got a trail,” they messaged. Using legal leverage and exchange partnerships, they froze the funds. After tense negotiations, my phone lit up: “BTC recovered. Check your wallet. My 12,500 euros returned, secure in a new wallet. Cyber Codex Revolution didn’t just save my savings; they restored my hope. Single or not, I learned trust in justice can outshine even the darkest scams.Now, I spread their name proof that in the wild crypto frontier, justice can still win.
