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...

It all began in the summer of 2024. I was caught up in the excitement of the cryptocurrency boom and thought I had found a great opportunity. I came across a seemingly legitimate investment platform that promised sky-high returns. After researching the website, reading positive reviews, and talking to a few people who seemed to have had success, I decided to invest $93,900, all the savings I had put aside for years. I was convinced I was making a smart move.But as time passed, I started to notice small inconsistencies. The platform’s customer support was slow and unresponsive. The withdrawal process became more complicated, and the success stories began to feel too rehearsed. One day, the website went down, and I couldn’t reach anyone. Panic set in. I had no way to access my funds, and deep down, I knew I had fallen victim to a scam. I was devastated. The money I had worked so hard for, the nest egg for my family’s future, was gone and I felt powerless. That’s when I heard about Alpha Spy Nest, a recovery service that specialized in tracing and recovering lost investments. At first, I was skeptical. The chances of recovering my savings felt slim, but I had nothing left to lose. I contacted them. Alpha Spy Nest worked swiftly, their team of experts guiding me through every step of the process.

It was a nerve-wracking time, but Alpha Spy Nest’s persistence was unwavering.They managed to trace my funds to a hidden account and, through their relentless efforts, successfully recovered $73,900 part of my lost savings.they restored my faith in the possibility of justice in an often chaotic digital world.
